Examination overview:
F1: Prerequisites -
A knowledge of the specification for C12, its prerequisites, preambles and
associated formulae, is assumed and may be tested.
It is also necessary for students:
-
to have a knowledge of location of roots of f(x) 5 0 by considering changes of sign of f(x) in an interval in which f(x) is continuous
-
to have a knowledge of rotating shapes through any angle about (0, 0)
-
to be able to divide a cubic polynomial by a quadratic polynomial
-
to be able to divide a quartic polynomial by a quadratic polynomial.
​
The examination will consist of one 1 1/2 hour paper. It will contain about nine
questions of varying length. The mark allocations per question will be stated on
the paper. All questions should be attempted.​
F2: Prerequisites
A knowledge of the specifications for C12, C34 and F1, their prerequisites,
preambles and associated formulae, is assumed and may be tested.
​
The examination will consist of one 1 1/2 hour paper. It will contain about eight
questions of varying length. The mark allocations per question will be stated on
the paper. All questions should be attempted.
​
Questions will be set in SI units and other units in common usage.
