I only have the specimen exam to go by but I think that I won't go too far wrong if I assume that the six part two questions will be based on the three blocks of each stream.
My plan is rather reliant on there being a counting problem in the geometry part. If there is, fine. If there isn't here's my plan B.
I think that I'm fine with the part two groups stream questions, maybe, I'll tackle these first, it worked for the topology exam. 30 marks; about an hour. No, I'm going to bump that up to an hour and a quarter. In the topology exam I'd prepared for questions coming at me in a certain way, which didn't happen. Things took longer than I'd thought that they would, I need to add in thinking time into my calculations.
Then it's all minds on deck, I'll have to garner all the groups marks that I can. I reckon that there are 30 on offer in part one. Say another hour and a quarter; I'll try to be non-sloppy, to be exact maybe?
Then it's just get what I can from the rest of the paper.
I should get over 40 with the possibility of a 55.
If there is a colouring problem? Then I need to squash the times down. This will work because I'm going to have more marks to play with, so I can drop more for individual questions.
I grade three should be manageable methinks. We'll see.
