did any one attempt the simultaneous quadratic equation?

[traveltomidwife79]

Was this the AQA Maths Higher Teir you are refering to? If so I couldnt go the simultaneous quadratic one, was that the y2 one?

[simplylou]

yeah, it was when y is squared

[ph4btomr3aper]

oh, i was talking about the AQA maths unit 2 exam

It was a pretty hard test, the AQA Unit 2, don't you think? The start was alright but then it got much harder towards the end.

I couldn't do the final 3rd! :P I felt like I had no time.. I'm just PREYING I got a C! In my Unit 1 I got a B, so I hope I do well in the final so that it all evens out to a B.

Did you get y=x for a question? Can't remember which one it was, might've been an equational fraction or sim equation

[simplylou]

i got a B in Unit 1 aswell & i dont think so..

i didnt complete the muffins question, i might have got atleast 2 marks out of the 5 for my working out though.
straight after the exam i typed in 12500x0.94 (to work out 6%) and i got 11750 so we got that right

I think I got something like £1.40 for the muffins question

Guys what % of our final grade is it? And also, do you know when we get the result

[NedSchool]

@kaneboy & Others- I believe it's 33% of our final grade. The results will be released to students on Thursday April 19Th. I completed the exam with minimal problems except: The Question about the twins, the last question about the graph & the muffin & loaves question- i got 80p for the final answer

Nice dude Glad you found it quite easy.

I wonder what the grade boundaries will be? My guess would be..

30% C
50% B
60% A
70% A*

[NedSchool]

@kaneboy Did you find it easy or hard. I believe it was a mixture of both and i actually liked the paper for once! I agree with your percentage predictions. I think it will be 46/66 for an A* because some people i asked found it really hard. Hopefully 38/66 for an A! What do you hope to get?

[Strawberries33]

What did you get for the pocket money question? And yes i got the 6% for the car one I personally found the test extremally difficult:/ preying for a C!
