Where the marks are #

42 questions are accounted for across 29 chapters; 3 chapters have no published figure.

The expected-questions column is the closest thing to a revision priority order this syllabus gives you. Chapters expecting three or more questions repay time at several times the rate of the single-question chapters — but the single-question chapters are usually short, which is why they are worth clearing early rather than skipping.

Note that 3 of the 32 chapters leave the expected-questions cell blank upstream. Those are shown as “—” rather than filled with an estimate.
