If I base my predicted score on last years grade boundaries, do you think it will be accurate?


no idea what you think...

I will revise mine when I see the paper

REVISED S2 ESTIMATED GRADE BOUNDARIES

100UMS ...74-75
90UMS..... 70-71
80UMS..... 66-67
70UMS..... 58-59


These boundaries are based entirely on the poll/some of your discussions and having seen the paper

I revised for the exam quite well. However, I think if you really knew your stuff, eg did all exercises in the book - it would be fairly easy to do well in this paper. Although the majority of candidates wouldn't have done this, I expect them to be low - maybe last years would be a good estimate I guess.

maybe you are right

A lot of people had already got their A or A* whatever they were aiming for, other concentrated on STEP.
Being the last exam allows tactical decisions.

(S2 was similar/12 out of my 14 students on it needed around 60% so it will be a "non trier")

For exam structure
I would stick to the Pearson series which are written by and for EDEXCEL/PEARSON

For additional/extension I would get the Bostock and Chandler original


PRSOM thanks!!

92 current A level papers to do solutions

Steal most of the questions from 1993 to 2006, on further mechanics, adapt them and and put them in my books

Start writing the IYGB special papers

write new 6 new booklets for undergrads on methods topics

the list is endless

these are my estimates





REVISED BOUNDARIES AFTER DOING SOLUTIONS TO THESE PAPERS


these are my C3 EDEXCEL estimates

69-70 …. 100UMS
64-65 …. 90 UMS
57-58 …. 80 UMS
51-52 .… 70 UMS

these are my C4 EDEXCEL estimates

71-72.........100UMS
65-66.........90UMS
59-60.........80UMS
52-54.........70 UMS

incidentally to blow my own trumpet ...
look at Q8 of this years C4 paper
look at Q8 of C4, IYGB, paper N

then look at Q10 of the C34, IAL June 2015
then look at Q8 of IYGB paper V

52 days to results ...
Hi TeeEm,

Want to ask some quick question for S2:

For question 5d,
how many marks will I lose if I have used binomial after poission distribution, but then I got the other way around, what is the max mark I will lose?

For question 7,
I got Median 10,20,50 but got Median 10 (step correct answer wrong), Median 50 (both correct) , how many marks will I lost ?

Thanks so much :smile:

I will answer this in a fair while as I started writing FP3 solutions now.
