Thanks I need that for an A* but I'm scared I won't get it because I make so many silly mistakes Could it be lowered though because grade boundaries tend to vary a little and because we are the first to take this exam it's bound to have low grade boundaries as everyone found it hard ?

Yeah I'm in kind of the same situation! And don't worry, it's quite a long paper and you'll have loads of time to check over! And 70's only an approximation, it could be much lower

[Adamtemps1]

Hopefully...but I often get caught out on those longer questions hope none come up that are too long. What did you get in both units?

I got 108 in Unit 1 and 110 in Unit 2

[Hazwaz7]

These are my results so far:

Unit 1 — 108 A*
Unit 2 — 116 A*

I think I worked out that I only need a C in Unit 3 to get an overall A, but hopefully I can do better than that

[v.007]

Is this the first unit3 exam ever or are there other past papers from previous exams?

Anyone found any good revision sites?
Only method I've found of revising for topics is YouTubing them, not the best way really, but good for visual learners.

All the papers I have are attached I also have the mark scheme for the mock paper, but I don't have a digital copy of the actual paper :/

Thanks, these are really useful! However it seems like they're a lot easier than the sample on the edexcel website as they take nowhere near as long to complete? Also, has anyone else found mistakes in question 1 and 10 on paper B or is it just me being stupid? :P Do you have any idea where the papers originally came from?

Your welcome ooh which is the sample paper on edexcel? Would you be able to attach that by any chance? And well because here haven't been any exams for this spec, our school ordered some practice papers, I'm not sure where exactly from though! And yeah I have found some mistakes in the mark schemes but I can't remember which ones they are, when I look through my papers again I'll tell you

130 UMS and 64-65 raw marks I'd say

Okay guys I don't think we're going to get a proper mark scheme - so we'll do the next best thing: compare answers! ;D

okay I'll put the answers I got. Please remember there are likely to be a few mistakes :P

18.) 349.2 km (1DP)
17a.) 3b-3a
17b.) Vector BE = 1/2a+1/2 b
Vector AD = a + b
Therefore vector AD and BE are parallel because they are multiples of each other.
16a.) (a-4)(a-2)
16b.) y = 4
15.) Anngle a = 60 deg
Angle b 32 deg
14ai.) p = 11
14aii.) y = -6
14b.) Coffee = £2
Tea = £1.50

Q9. 10 minutes


These are answers to what I thought are the hardest ones. Hope this helps guys. ANd more to the point I hope i got them correct!! :P

Phew, thought i was going mad! :P Don't worry about finding which ones too much though - the mark scheme is right, it just doesn't match with the question.
It's likely you've already done it, but page 123 of this http://www.edexcel.com/migrationdocu...-B-SAM-WEB.pdf

Oh yeah I've already done it oh I know what you mean, that paper was a bit harder than the practice papers! However, the mock paper than edexcel also released was the easiest i'd done? It's so odd :')
