after-math

using the same bad pun as before lol. yeah cambridge was pretty nice about their maths paper, but i think i didn't manage the time properly. spent lots of time checking and rechecking the easier first few qns then had less time for 9, 10 & 11. bugger. didn't manage a couple of sub-parts, so maybe lost, i dunno, 5-10 marks depending on how far i got. yeah so i figure for this paper i have a roughly 30% chance of getting more than 80, 40% chance of getting 70-80, and 30% chance of getting below that. decent but definitely not safe. so i need my stats to be pretty good to save my ass.

now i'm supposed to be revising stats and the remaining pure maths topics that didn't come out today... i'm pretty sure they won't do another complex numbers or functions or graphing qn, vectors prob not... definitely integration, maclaurins/binomial and possibly connected rates of change. i foresee a particularly screwed-up integration question. and MI or summation is pretty likely too. gah.

and instead of revising i'm actually blogging wtf.

phys geog on monday, the stats paper on tues, then massive mugging all the way till lit paper 1 monday next. phys geog is... ok, if i mug enough (stating the baldly obvious). except for hydro which is an utter bitch. i know nuts about rivers and how rain flows into the ground and forms streams and springs and all that shit. fucitol. but climo is good and geomo is fine.

and lol no i'm not a nirvana fan, though i might be if i heard more of their stuff but i've only ever listened to smells like teen spirit. it's crystallised transcendental angst, i think i used those adjectives in the essay. but that essay was shitty, i'm not sure whether i even established that music could change the world.

oh well. i think i'll type my pre-paper prayer closer to the date.
