Anybody tried the three tier papers: Bronze, silver, gold? I did the c1 c2 and s1 gold ones right before my exams last summer. Really is the best to date :smile:


I found them like a week before my AS exams too. Can't remember if I found them useful though. I'll add a link to them in the main post when I'm on my computer.
best advice to get 90%?

Yeah this is what I did for my pure exams (c1 c2)
Anyone started C4 yet. I have two teachers so we just need to finished vectors and integration but they are going waaaay to fast! I find it more challenging compared to core 3 though!

How long would C3 Trig take to master in terms of days?

I need to fully understand 1) double angle. 2) addition formulae. 3) factor formula. 4) that Rcos0 thing.

I was planning on watching exam-solution videos, understanding the formula's and followed up with past paper questions.
C3 upcoming mock test - help?

It's coming up to Christmas time, when we would get mock tests once again. My class would most likely
have a C3 Mock test before we break up on the 19th December.

Any tips recommendations for preparing for the C3 mock test. I want nothing less than 80% to prove to myself,
although I only need a '70%' (b) in the exam for my university choice.

My Plan:
1) Re-watch all of exam solutions videos.
2) Do textbook questions on primarily trigonometry although mix it up with other topics.
3) Past papers from Edexcel [Jan 2009-June 2013]
4) Solomon papers.
5) Silver/Gold papers. (Which are posted on this thread :smile: )

I'm planning on leaving June 2014 towards the real exam, other than that how is my revision plan above?
The timeline for my revision plan is from Dec 4th - Dec 12th/17th; would I have enough time to cover everything in
my plan for the C3 Mock? :redface:

Will there be an FP2 or FP3 thread?

Seems to hardcore man. You don't need to slave away for C3 or infact any maths modules. Just make sure you understand the content, for example in S1, all I did was go to class lessons and I did 0 past papers, started revising from exam solutions the day before and I still beat people who slaved for weeks before so mathematical ability is key.

I understand where your coming from but there is that saying. :wink:
"The best mathematicians are those that practise consistently."
