AQA level 2 Further maths GCSE

I wrote 16/-rt1/25.
How many marks will I lose for not getting -80?

If I remember correctly it was out of 4. So it would have been a mark for working out x, a mark for working out y, possibly one for writing down 16/-0.2 and then one for the answer of -80. So my guess if you got x correct is one mark.

Integer values for x^2 - 20x + 96 < 0

So, (x - 8)(x - 12) < 0

Currently looking like I may get that A* distinction that has been so elusive. Looks like A/A* core maths, and if the FM calculator paper is the same difficulty, that A* distinction

Hey u know for the trig question i wrote 3/5, would i lose 1 mark, i showed my working..?

U know for the x/y question, i got 80, would i lose a mark? and for the trig identity i didn't do negatives for both :/

You will probably only lose 1 mark for putting 80 because all you didn't do was recognise that y<0

We literally got the same answers for everything! omg that makes me sooo happy, it means i didnt completely screw that test over.

since we are kind of in the same boat, do u think that a highly selective sixthform would still accept you if you got an A for core maths and A*/A^ for fmaths??? Cause i completly screwed the core non calc paper up, and there is no chance I'll get an A* for that.
