Edexcel Linear Higher Non-Calc June 2011 Model answers on the actual paper (1st post)

with 2a, didnt you have to describe the relationship, not correlation? i put the more pages there were, the longer it took to read

i got h=2x as well i think that is right because the formula for the hemisphere was 2/3 pi r^3? and that dumb density question i did one silly mistake! for the gradient i got -1/2 for the last question was easy... cant remember what i wrote!

for the make k the subject i got:
tk-2t=k
-2t=k-tk
-2t=k-tk
-2t=k(-t+1)
k=-2t/-t+1

i (generously) calculated i got 85 marks on this paper, how many would you say i need in calc to get a*?

I've counted up and I think I got somewhere in the region of 82-89 marks (82 being really harsh)... does anybody know if this will be an a* as I'm hoping the grade boundaries are low on this one!!

I would say 80 would be enough but we'll have to wait and see!

I agree with Gibbo, I would be surprised if it was over 80 for an A* on this paper.

Nice Think I got 97!!!
Dropped one on the transformations by doing it going Q onto P
Another on the prism, because i didn't realise the length was in metres
And one on the one with the cone and the hemisphere because I wrote SQRT(3x^2) and didn't simplify it to x(SQRT(3)

Stupid, stupid mistakes...never mind though

I honestly think I've failed.
