Topics in GMA Relevant for Specialist Maths
• Vectors
• Algebra (also draw from Methods knowledge)
• Quadratics and rates (also in Methods 1+2 textbooks)
• Partial Fractions
• Complex Numbers (i, cis, z=x+yi, de Moivre's, etc.)
• Dynamics (forces, equilibrium, coefficient of friction, etc.)
• Kinematics (displacement, velocity, acceleration, etc.)
• Loci (and associated graphs)
• Trig (rules, identities and graphs)
• Angles (all those rules and circle geometry -none of the 'bisecting a line with a protractor' rubbish though)
• Shapes (volumes, surface areas, ratios, 3D vs 2D, etc.)

Notes
Pauls Online Maths Notes (VERY GOOD!)
iTute's free notes (not all is relevant)

I'll type it up over the weekend and post both of them here

Exam 1 was a pain to do in 90 mins, no-one was prepared for anything like this (pass mark = 4%, A cut-off was 46/90)

Are you ****ing joking. PASS MARK WAS 4%? That's just depressing.
NB: How'd you go?

I haven't asked around, but around 90%... I only got around 75%, but I didnt even see the 6 mark question on the last page (around 8%)... FAIL!
