I rounded to 5.22, the only one I did. I'm sure they'll accept answers from 80.1-80.4 as long as you rounded to 3 s.f. and no less (why it's important to show your working!)

You will lose at least 1 accuracy mark

okay sounds good to me, goodluck to you:smile:


Good luck to you to!
any one got a markscheme for foundation
Use the area of a triangle rule, to find one of the angles, then from that you used the cosine rule to give you a side length, then you could work out the missing angle by using the sine rule☺️
If you put green/red 0.09 and 0.36 the wrong way round (rushing) would you still get full marks seeing as it is clear what you meant?
I got 81.1 for the last one? Rounding issues with me maybe?

For the trial and improvement one my few ids were saying they got 3.7 but I got 3.8 and I was 100% sure that was right?


Posted from TSR Mobile




It was 3.8.

I believe it was x^2 - 5x = 34 I think? but 3.75 gave me 33.98 so it has to be 3.8.

No, you would not get the marks sorry. I remember the table being very specific :/
How many marks was question 24? (The only one I made a stupid mistake on, so annoyed!)

I MAY lose one accuracy mark. However, it is not like I rounded to the nearest whole number or anything so I still like my chances (3 significant figures is generally ok to round to). It doesn't really matter anyway, I'm already well above the A* boundary.
