Re: Higher Maths 2012For anyone else who wants them:
http://www.sqa.org.uk/sqa/files_ccc/...ries_2012.xlsx
I just posted them here because this is the only 2012 subject thread I saw on the front page at the time.
Not sure when they publish the examiners reports, those should be interesting. -

Re: Higher Maths 2012If there's no prelim evidence to back it up, then I'm afraid not. Hope you were happy with the other results!(Original post by JaggySnake95)
I doubt I can do anything but is there anything I can do if I thought I got a better grade than I was given but didn't do better in the prelims (therefore I can't appeal)?

Re: Higher Maths 2012They were okay. Hopefully I'll be on AABBC after I get an appeal for Biology. I want to do Economics with Business at Glasgow/Strathclyde so getting a C at Maths is a bit annoying considering I was doing 90%+ in past papers.(Original post by rosie9391)

If I done really well at AH Maths, can it make up for note doing so well at Higher if thet wanted you to get a certain level at Higher? -

Re: Higher Maths 2012Well done!(Original post by JaggySnake95)

It can do, but be prepared for them asking for an A/B at AH to make up for it. From my understanding, a lot of universities tend to favour having the minimum higher requirements. If higher maths is a requirement, I think you'd be better off re-sitting and bumping that C grade up.

Re: Higher Maths 2012Oh ... Oops.(Original post by ukdragon37)
Change the worksheet at the bottom.
In my defense, we never learned about Spreadsheets in Higher Computing
