    If its anything like last years papers then it shouldn't be too bad. A few surprises but nothing major, like with that bore-holes question.
    I'm planning on doing Q1,3,5,7 with Q4 as a back-up.
    Paper 2 it's Q2,5,6,7 with Q1 as a back-up.(Hoping we don't get a bad roadworks question either)

    My teacher keeps going on about how were due a hard paper, especially looking at the last few years, and tbh I wouldn't disagree. Anyhow, this is probably the paper I'd be most confident about and think nearly everyone in my year too.

    Yeah for paper 1 thats the exact same plan as me, Q4 can be a bit hit and miss, you might get it straight away and finish it in no time or be stuck and not know what to do at all.
    For paper 2 i'm looking at 1,2,5 and 7. No back up on that paper really except possibly the hyperbolic paraboloid jobby.
    Last years paper did seem a bit easy, i hope they don't go really mad with some of the tricky parts of questions like part (c) of Q1 on paper 1 and such like, still can't grasp all that 'determine projections of horizontal line 55 metres length from B to plane DEF and find inclination of this line to plane DEF' kind of thing. Aaanyway, i can forget about it until tuesday/wednesday

    graphics is one of my most fav subjects, its so nice just to whip out an A3 and draw something after a couple hours of english or irish, and its still classified as study!:D love it! and tbh some of those drawings just make ya feel all proud after:p anyways i think both papers should be fair enough, its always the same rigmarole except for a couple parts like Q1 P1 part c, hate those:mad: once we all just take deep breaths and dont start sweating on the pages!
