How did everyone do? I got 93, but my C3 was terrible...


What was your raw mark prediction for C4? I thought it was a bit higher than 61? I also remember how envious I was that you understood part of THAT vectors 8 marker!! I just didn't have a clue what they were asking me for, and, while I knew the boundaries would be low, I thought my A* was at risk. Thankfully I got it.

Well done on your grades pal, keep setting high standards for yourself and you'll go far.

At the end between 61-65... So upset that if I had the 65 it'd have been full UMS and an A*!

Well done :biggrin: that's awesome!:biggrin:

Gonna resit C3... I thought I had 71/72... Turns out I had 64:eek:

You must have thought you had the A* sown up after seeing the grade boundaries; that is, if you saw them before you got your results? I've been meaning to ask, what the deal is with January exams for Welsh students - have they stopped as well?

Are you going to view either of your scripts? I always take a couple of marks off of my predictions to accommodate arithmetical errors, but 64 down from 71/72 may be worth a look?

I looked at them and thought I had an A* :redface: because I knew I hadn't dropped below 60 in C4. And C3 I thought I did well :erm:

They have, but I was under the impression (and still am) there's a last resit for A2 students this year... For Welsh people on WJEC.

I'll just resit in (hopefully) January.

Nice one!

I also had the shock of getting 100 in C4 today. Until seeing the low grade boundaries this morning, I was worried about not getting the 83 I needed for an A* :tongue:

Heading to University?

Honestly it's just do the past papers a million times each. I managed to get papers from the old syllabus so the they were helpful. They were harder questions so helped my problem solving a bit more. I'm sure you'll get 100 the next time. Again good luck. :smile:

Pretty chuffed to get 100 in C4 - I got 99 in M1 as usual (I think I got 99% in every past paper/homework for M1 :laugh:).

I did Maths to A2 (C3, C4, M1) and Further Maths to AS (FP1, FP2, M2), and for some reason, M2 is counted towards my Maths A2 while M1 counts for FM. Not a big deal, but it was weird.

Do you know where I could get a mark scheme for June 2013? So I can get a photocopy of my paper and check against it?

I don't sorry. Maybe ask your teachers if they have access to one online? :smile:
