Edexcel A2 C4 Mathematics June 2015 - Official Thread

This was me a few days ago; it took me 4 days to get back to getting an A on the June '08 paper (that's what I'm aiming for).

You redid the papers? I'm actually stuck for what to do. I have done the c3 papers from jan05 - june10 but the last time I did a paper was easter.
Same with c4 last time I did any c4 was easter and Ive done the papers from jan05 - jun 07.
Done no M2 past papers

I was going to from tomorrow do some c3 papers to see if what I remember, go over what I dont remember but then move onto the solomon papers before I come back to the normal papers.

If you've run out of papers; you can go onto the Edexcel site and find the 2010-2014 papers there. I don't recommend redoing papers though, seems pointless; I usually leave all past papers until the last month (now) and then go all out.

What are these Solomon papers that people keep mentioning as well? I might look into them after I run out of the standard batch.

for the parametric last part can someone explain why the answer is x=1

and for the intergration question last part I got pi^3/64 - 1/16pi but the answer is +/1/16 pi can someone show me how?

To really test yourself I would recommend you do the papers courtesy of TeeEm, if you look at his profile there is a link to the site on his "About Me" section (http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/member.php?u=126052). (Try papers S and T to really test yourself!).

Hi, how do you integrate sec2x tan2x (all one term)

One of the questions in particular aren't in our spec

We don't need to know how to write a paramedic equation as far as I know - only Cartesian ones.

Where are these questions from?

That's what I'm trying to avoid to be honest - finding something I don't know that's not in my exam spec and then starting to flap about it.

How do you guys remember things like integrals of trigonometric things? I can remember cos x and sin x but not the others.

Yup.

Try to avoid doing stuff like that because you'll confuse yourself.

Just remember - Maths is a psychological game.

Go in the exam hall feeling confident and you'll do well.

Go in the exam hall feeling unsure and uncertain and you most likely won't.
