Mega A Level Maths Thread MK II

WJEC

Really happy actually, because it went so well I'm hoping I haven't jinxed it now...

One question I crossed out twice though

And an integration I crossed out and re did. And my initial answer was right

Crossing out doesn't matter provided they can read it
After my English GCSE I wrote an apology to the examiner because of the illegibility of my work

Could anyone have a go at this question please:

i am actually defumbled!!!

i can do part A and part B
part C is a killer

i can see that we need to know a value for A' since i did like a whole page of calculation then to see at the end that A' doesnt cancel out!! - and it couldnt anyway...grr

any help will be great

oh and i think its C4..might be wrong though

thanks

The amount of times I've written "(sorry!)" in the corner of an exam paper before.

I always make such daft mistakes.

Ah, yes, daft mistakes are my specialty.

I'll misspell a word, so I cross it out. Then, I'll proceed to make the exact same error again, and have to cross that again. And then I do the same thing a third time, feel like facedesking

I think I've lost a max of I don't even know... 3-5 marks on methods?

Didn't you say you thought you'd get full marks?

Not anymore... Read above

2 marks lost for that question?

Out of 3...

Damn could have had full UMS easily on that paper

aha! beat you in C2

Oh ****!!!!!!!!! I've realised I've lost marks!!!!

One question asked for the shortest distance between circles... I used the distance between the two centres

Didn't subtract the radii... Damn it 100% gone

You may still get full UMS. The OCR one that I sat apparently had 68/72 for full UMS - it depends how everyone else found it.

Damn it two marks gone

Unless grade boundaries are like 73/75 = 100 UMS

That'd be funny...

The logs question would have been quite challenging for some, as well as the GP/AP...

Never know

But it was so easy, most people will have done well... I just hope it's 95+ tbh

Lol 100 on C3/4 is the way forward - C2 is small potatoes

pfft, 100 on FP2/FP3 is where it's at

Sounds like wishful thinking to me

No 100s in AS Maths! That sounds kind of sad hopefully you make up for it with straight 100s for A2

Lol 100 on C3/4 is the way forward - C2 is small potatoes

Meh, FP2/3 aren't on the horizon though. . .

They are for me

I'd be satisfied with 1,1 unless I get a higher offer from Cambridge, if I get an offer at all... though I'm not sure if they even give out higher offers like S,1. Plus, even if they did, you'd probably still get in with 1,1!

Won't get it

Need to:get cracking with C3 for next Friday...
