Depending on how harshly you marked yourself, that should be an A*

It could but I don't think so. Many people found it easy while a lot of people found it hard. I think it'll be about 96 for a B, 132 for an A and 168 for an A*. At least, I hope it'll be like that😂
I predict 102ish for a B. Fairly easy exam overall. Perhaps 134-136 for an A.
Can someone help me?!?!?!?

For the last question I got 80.3 but everyone is debating whether it is 80.1 or 80.4 eeekkk

I used the exact values as well and at the end I got 80.33something

So I rounded it to 80.3 degrees

Will I get 6 marks?
Hell yeah I got the triangle questions right I think but the metal bar one wrong and the petrol one :frown: Thanks for doing this mark scheme, I'm happy now I thought 30.1 for the angle was wrong for sure in the exam!
