If they say you have to use Binomial expansion, you have to use it. If they don't specify, I suppose you could use that method, but it would be a colossal waste of time.

Why not just use Binomial expansion? It's in the formulae sheet anyway.

Does anyone know how they actually figure out the final grade for the whole A level?
I'm resitting both AS and A2 modules this summer and just trying to figure out whats what and how much everything counts towards the final grade :/ :/

They add up all six modules.

Each module is worth 100 UMS, so the total is 600 UMS.

A* - 480/600 UMS with 180/200 total UMS for C3 and C4
A - 480/600 UMS
B - 420/600 UMS
C - 360/600 UMS
D - 300/600 UMS
E - 240/600 UMS
U - anything worse than an E

Ohh thanks :biggrin:

so is the AS and A2 equally weighted?
