I am estimating 58/75 for 80UMS
(around 71 for full UMS)

What do you predict for a B & C? :tongue:

Hard to say, it depends entirely on the A boundary. But if an A is to be as low as 58, then B could potentially be from around 49 to 53
I remember a 54/75 grade boundary... Can't remember which paper

I have completely and utterly screwed up this paper. C1 was harder than usual but this paper was a whole new level.

Thing is, this paper was very doable although slightly challenging with a lot of thinking required in most parts- the fact that there was no easy 4 mark trapezium rule where u can bank marks easily for using a formula from the booklet. The paper seemed very easy at first but, the geometric series q where you had to find the common difference and first term, the trig questions, and differentiation at the end were tough. Unfortunately, cannot see the boundaries being lower that 61 for this paper due to the fact that boundaries were low last year for an easy paper and rarely can u get below 61 in maths for an A grade

Am I the only one who thought it was easier than normal?

The gold papers did f*** all for me in this paper. How about you? Didn't even come close to preparing me for this one, that and past papers on top of that.
