I do papers from other, more challenging exam boards, like OCR...

I haven't finished all papers from S1 yet though so I haven't had a look at OCR's S1 papers.

Or, you could just redo the Edexcel ones till you're averaging 95+ in all papers.

You just gotta do anything you can to keep your S1 brain refreshed until the exam :smile:

Is it okay to do that.. i was thinking going to ocr papers but then thought the style of the questions is different so is there any point in doing them ?! and ive done the edexcel papers several times.. i literally no the methods for all the questions .. im trying to do that.. keep it fresh.. its my first exam. thing is i have s2 to sit 6 days later so im trying to balance it out and not get confused between the 2 .. the odd thing is im finding s1 MUCH harder than s2 =/ :frown:

A lot of people think S2 is easier than S1, don't worry about it. If you are feeling the stress, just come over to me, you can bunk with me tonight. :wink:

i am not sure of grade boundaries cause this one was old? but was this paper easy or hard and if u get 62 in easy paper does that mean u will get like 58 or something for a hard paper?

Ugh, S1 and D1 clash. Why did they have to put the two most boring exams back to back. For ****s sake. Oh well, got to make sure I take my Viagra

I dont understand how getting a boner will get you a good grade. I believe they are both mutually exclusive.
