You drill practice your algebraic manipulation, differentiation and integration skills.
Most of the time people are not having trouble with a specific topic, but more with basic things.

One often hears people say that they are struggling with eg rates of change questions for example, when what they really are having trouble with are steps like differentiating, integrating, and other basic things.

So practice harder differentiation and integration? I did the hardest maxima minima problems and the hardest volume/area of curve questions. Still nada.

You mainly focus on questions on application of series, physical application of calculus and harder integration. I just did a fake HSC paper compiled by live.fast. It was a pretty good practice. You just have to use a brain around for those type of questions. :D

& Don't stress. Q10 worths 12 marks, I am aware of that but if you nail all the other questions, you will still get great results. Q10 is like the only question that separtes State rankers (who are 100 or 99ers) from 97-98ers.

Oh yea, I forgot Maxima and Minima Problems!

looking at the q10's, they're pretty simple just very tedious algebra.

Your questions aren't hard enough
