You'd get some method marks, but it's normally correct answer only. I wish there was error carried forward like in physics


there are follow through marks in maths which is basically the same thing

This exam made me want to kms.

Wtf was with question 8 and 9.


I feel your pain, I'm hoping I've scraped by on the first 7
Did anyone find 5a and b really hard?

Does anyone have the model answers?

I had no clue, I just found the determinant of the matrix.

The transformation 'T' was represented by the matrix 'R'. It turns out, if you find R inverse, it's exactly the same as R. If are R and R inverse are the same, it is defined as 'self-inverse' - which it was. Quite a lot of work for only two marks, hope this helped
Would you lose the A1 mark if you do:

... = (correct answer) = (wrong answer after manipulation)
Did anybody here do M3 on Wednesday and thought it was easier than today's FP1?

If you didn't cross correct out you shouldn't. I think they have to take the highest amount of marks they can award you
Honestly not that bad guys. Proof scary but simple if you stick through it.

M3 was definitely easier, compared to the past papers. Although I still managed to mess up M3 (the 9 mark question) and do fairly well in FP1. :biggrin:

At the start of every mark scheme:

"Ignore wrong working or incorrect statements following a correct answer."
