Mr M’s Edexcel GCSE Mathematics A Higher Linear Paper 2 Answers June 2012

would a total of around 158/200 be good enough for an A*? Any thoughts

Overall a 59...
Well i personally think you should wait for the actual grade boundaries provided by EDEXCEL, however due to the fact that it was a NEW SPEC, the boundaries should be a little lower, having said this DO NOT get your hopes up!

me too, i think we should be fine for 50

In my opinion It is most likely a very very high A (if you use past grade boundaries)
If it comes down a bit as its new spec then an A* MAYBE

Dudes, don't get your hopes up, just wait for the grade boundaries.

so scared, i need a B to get me onto what i wanna do ahh....

anyone know if 90-100 marks is a B?

Im a little confused?
Did you get 90 in both papers? Or is that your total mark?.

Quick question for everybody...and can everybody please respond !!!

in my school most of us passed in march .., i retook because i got a b
our teacher said we were almost guaranteed a's since only the ones who got d's and e's from our school were retaking so the boundaries would be low.

howeever from here, it seems that people who took this exam are going to get a's and a*'s.

can you please reply telling me how many people from your school were entered who are in the lower sets or had failed (with all due respect) previosuly please??

total marks

Well then why are you here looking at the unofficial mark scheme? Quite clearly you're also stressing yourself about it...

And no, we're not going to fail if we stress about it...I have no idea how that theory of yours works...

Im so scared, i think i got around 59 overall, would that be enough for a C? someone please help me out!

I would be terrified in your situation, but i do not want to tell you it will be fine and you've got your C but the 2012 paper in march stated that you needed 50-54 out of 200 to get a C, so don't worry to much!
Who knows you could even pull up a few marks if you examiner is generous!
