December 2012 Maths HL Holiday Pack This pack contains 4 past papers from May 2011 in the following order: Paper 1.2 Paper 1 from TZ2 Paper 2.2 Paper 2 from TZ2 Paper 1.1 Paper 1 from TZ1 Paper 2.1 Paper 2 from TZ1 There are two ways I would recommend for you to use this pack 1. 2 papers for revision, 2 papers in exam conditions. Use the first 2 papers from TZ2 as revision questions. Use your notes as and when you need them. I would assume that getting through these would take you a fair bit of time. Once you have done these, do paper 1 and 2 from TZ1 in exam conditions. Complete each one in 2 hours, with an e copy of the data book on your computer in front of you. When you are finished with these, staple your answer sheets and put them to one side (I will mark them if you wish, or you can mark them using the answers I will send you). I would then urge you to revisit questions you felt like you could not do in the 2 hours time frame, and do them using the help of your notes. 2. 4 papers in exam conditions Use old past papers and ppqs I have given you (the 111 questions from the summer may be handy if you have not finished them already) and any other resources you have to revise, then do all 4 papers in timed conditions. Only do this if you feel you have done plenty of revision before attempting your first timed past paper. Again, revisit any questions you cannot do, and use the data book for both papers. I will not be sending out solutions till much later in the holiday. I know that using the solutions is often useful, and sometimes it may seem that you think you re just using them to check something, when in fact you re limiting your thinking time. If it takes twice as long to crack a question without a mark scheme, it is time well spent! So don t wait for me to send solutions, get cracking on these straight away. Life would be boring if you didn t fail before your successes Hirani, 2012
