does anyone have a document/spreadsheet on past grade boundaries recently? or is it pretty safe to assume its normally 60+ for an A

So I assume you've put in y=e/10, so you have e/10 = something... so how would you get e on it's own to have it in the form e = ...?

i have done it, thanks anyways

Are you sure you do stats? :tongue:

Spoiler

As a Further Mathematician I haven't looked at S1 since we finished it in December...

I've just found it all, and it ain't so bad as I thought it was :tongue:

thanks though!

Tip:
Remember to match up your variables to X and Y in regression questions to ensure you use the right values for sum of squares formula.

If you're doing IAL (I am) then grade boundaries can come around 58-59 too. for Jan 2015 IAL it was 59 for A and 51 for B

Most challenging normal distribution question I've found on a paper is this. Was on solomon B. Go through it if you like a challenge.

Eeek! Further maths? Just normal maths is more than enough for me... And loool that explains a lot! But what about mocks, you never revised? :confused:
