I'm not sure if I'm posting in the correct section, and sorry if this is a common thread, but I'll go ahead anyway.
Right, here's me situation, I'm in year 13 going to university to study physics in September and the university I really want to study at requires AAA grades and the problem is that I got 232 (a high B) last year in OCR mathematics purely due to the "Probability and Statistics" Unit which I got 67 (a high C) on- I performed well in Core 1 and Core 2.
Now, I seem to be the kind of person who gets better at Maths as I get older as I'm finding the A2 year fine so far- Core 3 wasn't bad and D1 was fairly simple, whilst C4 seems great so far. Also, I have found that (probably due to my physics-based brain) that I am very good at calculus, trigonometry and quite a few pure Maths modules (as in the Core units) but not so great at probability and stats (I'm better at the latter though).
So, I would like the opinions and advice of people whom have taken a multitude of Maths units that I haven't taken- mostly people who have taken FP1 (note this is OCR as I mentioned earlier)- in order for me to decide which unit to sit in order to boost my marks and guarantee me an A grade rather than resitting the Probability and Statistics modules; which I will do if I have to, but taking into account my ability in calculus etc, I'd prefer a unit more catered to that!
Thanks. Any help is appreciated.
