    I think they will be 75% for a C
    Thanks, but does that mean like 75/100 for a C!?!?!?!? Also, how did you find it? I thought it was really difficult

    Lol i soooo messed it up, what do you think the grade boundaries will be?
    I saw on the OCR website it's normally 53% for a B and 34% for a C. Can you remember if you said the majority of the runners ran at an average of 12km/h? I said no.

    grrrr i hate maths, my teacher said there will definitely be questions about triangles because in the non calc there wasnt anything about triangles. And for the running one i put yes lol i think it said over 12km/h so i put yes lol

    hey what was the running question?
    The one bout the race where we had to do a stem and leaf diagram and then about half the runners running an average of 12km/h, i put yes but i am probably wrong
    also, what are you doing to revise for tomorrow and do you know if the paper we did is available online or not?

    I don't think his right. OCR will never 75/100 for a C that's just too much. At least 65/100 for a C in my opinion
