IT WAS SO SEXIST! I was silently fuming when I read that question.


Maybe it was a testosterone level test, who knows

Hey,would it matter if
Q1
-you used the values of 3.s.f to work out the pmcc
Q6
-that I left the standard deviation as 1.49

Thanks

If I have Q6b as 2.74% rather than 0.0274 will I get the marks?


you're right because they asked for PERCENTAGE

kinda struggling to prove to the sexist person who wrote this paper that girls ARE better at maths after calculating my total marks.


> The paper is sexist
> Girls are better

The irony is beautiful.

Can't remember all my answers. Feel like I may have lost lots of little marks.

Mark could be anywhere from 60-70. Hopefully top end...
Hey for question 4 isn't the data negatively skewed, I mean q2-q1 is more than q3-q2 ...I put that it's not symmetric and it's skewed and then I did the formula above to show its negatively skewed...is that right

for the venn diagram question i put three circles, the first being full time, second being bus and third being contract. Therefore the area that full time and contract doesnt intersect bus, its part-time that gets the bus, and the bit outside the circles is part-time which doesnt get the bus.
Surely this is more right than having a centre circle of 0?


I too did this, thinking it was more right, but I also gave the 4 circle solution but I put a pencil line through it. Can I still gain full credit even if I have given 2 solutions and put a faint line through one of them?

Basically I used the wrong value from the formula sheet.

But I used the actual formula : X-mean/sd = the figure from formula sheet


In that case I reckon you'll pick up some method marks at some point :smile:

well i ****ed that up - in past papers was getting like 73/75, ill probably get like 55-60 on this ****...the regression equation was ****...would i lose all 7 marks for that question all because i got the equation wrong???

Also in 6c, I drew the diagram like in the mark scheme but found 0.99, crossed it out and found 0.98 in the table - then obviously went from the right standard deviation to the wrong one - how many marks lost?

Does anyone have any idea where international students can get model solutions for our paper?

I was fuming because I couldn't do the Venn diagram!


Naah smashed that question, took me about 10 minutes of staring at the data for the answer to appear but eventually it did! :smile:
