GCSE AQA Unit 1 Higher Calc. 54 marks 5/3/12

Is it too early to discuss this?


AQA Maths GCSE Unit 1 Statistics- South England

I took this test today, 5th March 1:30pm, it's 27% of my GCSE.

To get an A* you need to get 46+/54, I am hoping for 50+, however I wont know until I see the mark scheme/answers.

Has anybody else taken this, and knows the answers?

As far as I know discussion of AQA exams is fine because they're only taken in the UK. I don't know anything about the exam, but don't worry so much!

The 1/5 one is definitely correct, I cross-referenced this with many friends. The upper and lower bounds was a 81% decrease from 40 million or something, so I think you got that wrong.

What was the fisherman one?

i did 1/10 + 1/9 for the last question..... i think thats hw u r meant to do it,.....
I don't know if my answers are correct but I thought the exam was easy. I too got 1/5 for the last question as did many others. This paper was easier than the past papers I did so I'm guessing the mark scheme to get an A* would be higher due to the questions being easier. I'm pretty confident/happy with the exam, hopefully it paid off unlike last time I was too confident and I only got a B with loads of silly mistakes and misreading questions.
