i'm taking it tomorrow x]
i find paper 2 more harder than paper 4~ anyone else thinks the same??

vectors are really easy! look, for example (2)
                                                       (-3)
so from your point, move 2 squares to the right and 3 squares down(cuz it's minus)

another example, (-4)
                        (8)
from your point, move 4 squares to the left and 8 squares up

so, the first number is always on the x-axis and the one below is always on the y-axis
and if you confuse about the negative sign then look at the axis
for x-axis, when you go the left it's always negative and for y-axis, when you move down it's always negative
so when it is negative for x, you move to the left and when it's negative for y, you move to down

well~ hope that helped...
good luck to everyone who's taking the paper 2 tomorrow!!!!!
