100 Questions - GCSE Edition

I have created 100 questions that are going to start on 26 March and go right up until 3 July. It would be good to keep your answers together, so maybe
start a new sheet of paper or document. You must answer the questions fully and completely and you are free to expand upon your answers. For an
extension task you could make sure you link questions to Set Works, although some questions ask you to do this anyway. And if you think there is
anything I have missed then feel free to add your own questions.
