Mega A Level Maths Thread MK II

Showy? I want 97/98... So it looks nice... I'd love a 100 though, in one of C3/4 but not gonna happen

Lol - it might just hope that the WJEC peeps are noobs

So they have to be noobs for me to attempt 100 UMS

Time isn't an issue, if I take my time it's an hour long... Exam stress will make it an hour minimum...

So I have checking time.

What can go wrong. Arithmetic, and trig integration?

Lucky -OCR takes a while.
And no that's not what I meant! - But hey, you said it not me
Yep - though you may have missed out trig

Well you know the linear factors, you multiply two linear dactors together and you get a quadratic, you just need to pick which linear factors you want to mulitply to get the desired result.

Linear dactors sounds like some cool and funky new topic

Trig isn't covered (hard anyway) all we need is:

1 + cot^2(x) = cosec^2(x)
1 + tan^2(x) = sec^2(x)

All the trig reciprocals, differentiation from first principles for tan and cot, and that's about it...

Well to be fair I typed it out correctly twice.



No double angles to make blunders on?
First principles is an effort

You can derive the identities from $\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1$ too, so that's really all you have to know

I was reading through the last couple of pages (and understood literally nothing) and genuinely though linear dactors were something we learnt about in A2 or sumat

100 is a bit showy - same goes for you DJ

But that's the exact reason people like 100%'s so much!

I'll beat your school's current record holder if I somehow get straight 100s for all maths modules I'm doing this exam session
