Please quote me if I have anything wrong!
These questions may also be in the wrong order, but they are still grouped into grades...

20b is not 13 it's 15 2 route 2 I swear?

Enough non calculator guys! We need to look at topics for the calculator paper...what do we reckon on certain topics to go over??

For the calculator I have a feeling angles, pie chart, pythagorus, volume and radius/diameter will come up. I'my not sure, so just revising everything. On the bright side, at least the exam is in the afternoon so we can get extra revision done in hither morning

I have RS in the morning aha!

I have RS in the morning aha!

Oh unlucky. Good luck!

Good, I predict 62/70 How about you?

Same here, seriously everything I wanted to come up came up haha. I really liked the paper of I'm honest, compared to the a November 2014 it was heaven LOL! Did you do foundation or higher? I'm just worried that now calculator paper will be harder but I don't think the grades boundaries will be lowered. Although, that depends on the calculator paper as well.

If you look, nationally, you will find that actually the paper was a little on the challenging side for some. If the A* boundary is around 146, we only need 84/105 for an A*

I think sin and cosine rule will appear and also histograms

histograms was an A* question last year though? in june 2014...

I just have a hunch
