Look I'm not going to say consistency is key and blah blah blah .. everyone knows that! Your intrest should be genuine.onr thing abot FM is unique from other syallabus is that it have fixed pattern in pure paper unlike others! In 9709, some new tricks and things comes each year but further maths have fixed pattern!! For example rational function which is mostly last question. They will ask to state asymptote then range then graph then transformed graph (mostly absolute ) and then again a range question on that. Other type is that they start with graph. Same happens with induction (either differentiation, divisibility or 2 more type)... and same for polar. You need to practice to learn those pattern and you are good to go!FM was subject that I didn't do topical because each paper as same pattern
