Judging by past grade boundaries, about 32 :tongue:

if I got 40 on here, what would I need to get on paper 2 to get a B?

Does anyone know what the grade boundary will be like? I reckon I got about 75/100

Also, on Q15 (box plot one), when asked to compare the distribution, would mentioning the IQR & Range be enough, or would I have needed to also mention the medium to gain that mark?

No, all you need is the IQR and medium they're crucial.

Why is question 13 36% instead of 50%

30% of 800= 240+20%of 800=160
240+160=400
400 is 50% of 800

you had to find 30% of 800 which was 240
then because it was 20% rise, his new rent is 120% → 240 * 120% = 288
so it was 288/800 which cancelled down to 36/100 = 36%
