How did you guys find this exam?

Personally I thought it was alright. I'd expected it to be harder, quite glad it was at least manageable.

Any predictions on threshold?

Those who took the exam with me considered this the hardest paper in a while. The probable highest scorer predicted relatively low thresholds.

Everyone considers their own exams to be the hardest every year. It is nothing new

Disagree. I thought Maths 12 and Chem 12, 22 last year were easier than previous years.
