89 on non-calc and 97 on calc- A*?

[millkiller]

How the hell people getting 80 and 90s marks? am i the only person getting 40 marks and 30 marks

[JulienPoulain]

how many marks have i lost from the cumulative frequency graph? I accidentally plotted it by the mid point of each graph so it 5 places to the left.

[KayneBucks95]

I got about 81 on the first paper and maybe 84/85 on the second - would that be enough for an A*? I already have an A in maths from last year and this is a re-sit, so I really want to get an A*!

[valerab]

how many marks was the histogram question?

[everytingisinvalid]

what would 174marks be?

[rdmchill]

For question 22 I did it to 1(d.p) instead of 3sf would I still get all the marks? Secondly, my friends and I did VAT on each tyre then times 3 instead of 3 times the tyre price and then VAT on the that. Which one is correct because the wording of the question isn't clear but sounds like the VAT on each tyre.

[valerab]

if on the last question i had all the workings out. How many marks will i get? i bottled it and used quadratic formula (dont ask me why).

[spookz]

that histogram question tricked me i plotted the last point all the way to 60 so angrrrrrrrrrrry!!!!!!!!

[jgdestroyer95]

Do you think 178-180 would be enough for an a* ??

[xXxDHxXx]

I got 97 on CAl (3 marks form Histograms, I fail at those) and 94 for non cal.
But is roughly 175 - 191 enough for a A*?

Thought the Grade Boundaries were around 160? Right?

Damn, I was so angry at that...3 marks lost.
I always suck at histograms, and yesterday I blasted it and only worked out the FD and MP.
Didnt plot :/

Turns out I was revising on Mymaths yesterday morning...it had 0.4 too, exactly like the exam (First one was 0.4) = each sqaure = 4 people.

ffs :/

If you get over 176 that's pretty much an A* in the bag, the paper (overall) was easier than the November series but not too easier. I think it will be 168 for A*.

Either way is acceptable....
VAT per tyre = £13 per tyre...but 20% VAT from all 3 types = £39. Same as £13 x 3

It doesnt matter as long as you got the right ans.


Also, for Qus. 2, it says to an SUITABLE degree of accuracy. I'm nto sure about the 3 S.F but I written down 3.605 which I don't think you will be marked down for feelin thats the suitbale degree of accuracy

[xXxDHxXx]

But yeah this sure is a hard paper.
I didn't do the November resit, I did my in June 2011. However after achieving an A (was 2 marks off A*) I decided to resit this year!

Ofcourse everything is easier now because I actually revised! DOH!

2 for table, and 3 for graph I think

[ata12]

If I got 55 on the calc, and 68-72 on the non calc, would that be enough for an A?

Would 79 in non calculator and 94 in calculator paper be enough for an A*

More or less. But slight chance u get a high A

[Majka12]

I got around 130-140 marks on both papers? Do you think I have a chance of getting an A?

Depending on Grade bounday and using the lowest mark on the cal paper, you will just be able to get an A or maybe a high B. Last year summers Grade boundary for A is 121, your 123 with lowest score, cutting it a bit I think
