Thank you!! Looking at this I only lost marks on the 1c! I hated that question


1c was weird as hell haha. Wasn't worth too many marks I don't think, so if that was your only error then you're def in for a high A 😊

Yep a few of my friends said that they'd seen it prior aswell, was dodgy one. I hope it wasn't worth too many marks...

I wonder how difficult the C2 paper will be.

Is anyone sitting WJEC M1 in June, I know its a while away.


Yeah I'm sitting M1. I'm fairly prepared for that anyway so not too worried about it
does anyone have the markscheme for the c1 wjec paper ??
does anyone know where we can get a copy of the paper? i want to have a look at the questions ps i found the paper really hard even tho i usually love c1 :frown:

Here's a (very) unofficial mark scheme since there hasn't been one published yet. Mostly just the answers but some method in there as well :wink:


thank you for that! do you by any chance have the questions or anything?

Do you remember what you got for M in question 1?

I feel like I've got 70+

I got 65 - root 13 for the surd, wbu?


Got something similar to that.
I felt like the 2016 paper was harder than the 2015 paper. I did all the papers since 2006, and I found them okay. Found 2016's paper hard, especially the last 2 parts on the coordinate geometry question. Usually I fly through coordinate geometry, but this paper was tough. Optimisation was great though!(;

Really? The co-ordinate geometry was a bit odd with some bits, but speaking as a resitter, this paper was a lot easier than last years paper for me. I struggled so much with the paper last year compared with this year. (Got a D last year)

Mind you, that could be because I revised a lot more for C1 this year than last year, and with C3 and C4, my maths skills have benefitted a lot.
Ok, I've decided to just post it here instead, but I'll likely be removing it in a couple of weeks as the schools will be using them as mocks for next year. (see pdf attached)

This was my first shot at C1, so probably natural that I found it a bit tough. I felt like all the past papers were slightly easier, but that's probably because I wasn't doing them under pressure.

Yeah, you've probably grown in confidence now, so the paper may have been easier to deal with. Hope you get the grade you want though!(;
