[Year 12 IPM] Multichoice Q5

[Emma Coughlan]

Afternooon everyone,

Yes I agree with the question 5 issue - I also thought
it was about the conventions -

Overall I was happy with the exam - the multi choice
was a little easier than I was thinking - and most of
my students actually enjoyed the exam!

Regards,
