Guys could some nice person tell me how many marks I lost and guess ums, I think I made the following mistakes: 1)b) I left my answer with sqrt the whole thing and a +- infront of it. 2) a ) my asymptote was -3 not -5 . I then reflected this for part ii so my ii asymptote way y=3 will I get ecf?And finally for 8)a) I only expanded the left hand side to 1+2sinacosa on to and 1-2sin^2 a on the bottom .I need a maths a* for uni so I'm worried since 8a) was 5 marks .Thanks


I guess u lost 10 marks max if those were the only ques u got wrong! That should get u an A* considering how many people messed up sooo many ques! Dont worry nd just work hard for c4

[QUOTE=TeeEm;56940033]real shame and so obvious ...
I hope the marking scheme works in your favour as much as possible

Yeah I know! But it was one of the only thinks I got wrong so hopefully could still get an A* especially if the grade boundaries are low. Thanks!

I'm in the same position as you.I need that A* how did I not see the last question?


Me toooooo I am so annoyed with myself! Saw it with like 2mins to go! Goodbye A* :frown::frown::frown:
What did everyone get for 10 b and c? I only had like 5 mins to do the entire question because I didn't think there was 10 questions!
Hey guys i wrote (sqrt)20 instead of 2(sqrt)5.
The reason i wrote this is because is past papers they specifically wanted it as a whole surd so that's what i put as my answer. Would I drop marks for this or not?

Even if u got 100s in c1 c2 u wont get an A* bcuz for A* u need 90% for c3 c4 combined!


Cheers all. So getting full ums on all AS Units, only really helps to get an A overall?

How dumb as some people.
I doubted myself and he scared me for a second.
I finished with 15minutes spare time and ran through the paper more than 5 times.
Did not see a question 10, so i would be pissed if there was.

Haha no worries! it wasn't the worst (apart from me missing the last one) but the proof was tricky!

Yeah was tricky, took me a good 10-15minutes to figure it out.
I was thinking about it while doing the other questions. lol
Sometimes i cant think of the answer straight away, but then come back to it and i've got the answer for some strange reason.
looking at arsey's answers I think I got around 65 on this paper, does anyone have an idea to what UMS roughly this would be? (I think I ****ed up big time on M1 so I need a rough guide for what I need in C4 for an A overall). I got 256 UMS last year
