You should've squared 1.48 for the pie chart.
1.48 was the length scale factor, so you had to square it and then multiply it by the population of people who had apprenticeships to get your final answer :P

Yeah, I realised that after I left the room :tongue:

I tried to get my scribe to let me edit it but I couldn't :frown:

You'll do fine! Try to keep positive about it or you will kill yourself over it until results day :smile:

I'm sure you'll either get 1 or 2 out of three, good luck though, sounds like you did pretty well on most of the other questions!

It was 32 for the final answer because you had to do:

60*0.2 = 12
200*0.08 = 16
200*0.02 = 4

12+16+4 = 32

yea i got 32 as a overall but i did different method than you did.
i did 60/100*20 = 12
then the rest same thing as you did.

No, it would be ((3.7 / 2.5) ^ 2) * 225000 which is 492840

Yea you can do that method as well, it's almost like stratified sampling which can be done two ways :P

BTW whatcha all get for stratified sampling ?

I felt like this paper was slightly easier than the 2014 paper, so I personally am guessing 88-89 for an A* in this year's paper. Maybe a 36/37 to pass (these are just marks for the paper itself, no idea about the controlled assessment)

I reckon overall you'd need a 16 + 88 (CA/paper) for an A*, and an 8 + 37 for a C. Don't quote me on it (unless it really is the boundaries)

it said right digits then it wrote thousand so it was like this in the answer box

________ Thousand

I got something like 40.851 male managers, but of course you can't have 40.851 people so in the end I got 41. Not sure if I did it right though! I just sort of fiddled around with formulae until I felt I had something which was reasonably accurate.

492.84 OR indicate somewhere that you are rounding to the nearest thousand and write 493
