I think P456 is easier than P123. I hate P123 but love P456 and P7. I'm hoping to get 100 UMS in them. Hopefully. Lol.

What is UMS?

Wow, nice picture! It looks so professional!



I do Edexcel and I don't think we have 15 markers, instead 16 markers. This is usually the mast questions and you will be given a statement to discuss.

1) Firstly, plan! Planning is key and this will help you get the top marks
2) Introduce what you are going to say e.g. I am going to talk about....
3) write a paragraph or 2 to address why the statement is correct by adding lots of historical context. Make it detailed and always refer back to the question
4) Do the same to address why the statement is not correct
5) Finally, add your opinion e.g. Overall, I ....

Hope that helps:smile:


Aw thank-you Sahra! they told me to 'act natural,' lol!

I don't know if you are still replying but you seem to have really great grades! Good luck!!!

Also if it isn't a bother, would you mind sharing your double chemistry and physics science notes? Or at least give us tips on how to successfully revise so that you can still remember what you've revise after days? Thank you ^-^


Yeah I am still replying (when I can find time). I do triple science not double and might be able to share my notes later today. As for remembering it, make something so that you can recap everything very quickly to ensure nothing is forgotten. I use flashcards but a white board or cover and check work quite well. :smile:

UMS is how you're awarded a grade. If 90 UMS for a paper is 45/60. Then you need to get 45/60 for an A*.

I managed to find the mark scheme :biggrin:
So this was for a 3 marker but it contains many more points, so I guess we could mould it into a 6 mark response if we tried :smile: (part b of the question btw)

Thank you! And referring back to your posts of P456, yeah, they are quite an easy module as long as you understand the science involved! Just want to get additional done and over with :smile:

You're welcome! :biggrin:
And yeah I just can't wait for exams in general to be over, but yeah I agree that additional is particularly tedious. I'm dreading the 7s though :s-smilie:

Does anyone know of any very hard mathematics questions? I would like to practise solving as many before the further maths exam so the harder, the better.

You do further maths as well? What exam board do you do...?

AQA Level 2 IGCSE. Do feel free to send me further maths A-Level Edexcel questions as well; I'd love to give them a try!

Hmm...oh no..I don't do edexcel..i do Aqa as well but just not the iGcse...I'm just doing past papers..and going in mr Barton's maths...they give loads of practice papers on their with YouTube videos to explain every question...you should probably go on that and try it out..it might help...

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm already using Mr Barton and other sites! I was hoping for just random questions not confined to a specific exam board to prepare me for anything

Have you done the practise papers out of the workbook? Some of them are pretty tricky tbh
