^ You'll need to cover, like, 3 topics a term. That's not nice at all.

Slide rule, you'd better get 110%, or the penguins will be angry.

If you've only got a "couple of other things" that's actually very fast and I would assume your school is delaying 4u until you've almost covered all of 3u.
So if anything, that's fast.

Yes you can. If, for instance, on the physics paper you answered two options:D

assuming they mark both options and count the marks, you still need to realise that there is no option topics in maths.. no matter it's general, 2U, ext1 or ext2...

by deduction, it follows from the above statement that you cannot get 110% in maths

i would like to thank all the people who helped me with complex numbers here because i survived the kick-out test. i found out it wasnt 'kick-out' strictly, but more like 'very much extremely absoultely recommended to drop ext 2 maths'

I think that they would fail you for that kind of stupidity.

But they may may give you bonus marks if there was a question that was wrong, and you proved it was impossible ....

It would be exceedingly harsh to fail a person for answering two options, unless by normal standards it could be deemed a non-attempt.

No, they will threaten you with legal action for being arrogant against BOS
there was an example before, but it wasn't by a student :p
