I reckon I did alright.. not sure though I don't have a strong vibe towards mega win or mega fail.
How did you guys find it?
Fair? Easy? Hard?

oh lol actually i remember that q.
my description of what an exponential graph is sucked.
it was passable but should have been better.

what graph did people put for the tourists departing Australia?
the one where is was like proportion of a whole.. with the table of percentages etc etc
I put a pie chart but i dunno..

I didn't think it was too bad, I was expecting it to be worse. I liked that there wasn't too much algebra in it. :p There was a few questions that I know I didn't too well on though.

For the questions that require a written answer, I always end up writing so much lol.

I got an Independent general paper. Just had one graph in it, worth 2 marks. Was pretty easy, except the algebra questions, may algebra burn in hell :angry:

Probably a dumb question
but is the maths not being in your sig an intentional thing?

It was kinda confusing, well this one question with the 'r' as an expression to the volume of the sphere.

Okay what I said was confusing also --'

Overall... I think I failed or passed by a bit. lol.
