That wasn't the very last question, it was question 5 I think. It was worth 3 marks, the one where you explain if Shyan was justified in using a normal distribution.


He's asking how much the last question AND the question you just mentioned are worth. Not just that one

Do we have an unofficial markscheme yet?

my bad, i misread it. thanks for pointing it out, added an edit

basically guys for the diner question i got 17 people, is this correct and if not what was it and why?
cheers


Original post by JustOneLastTime
I got 17 aswell but I'm not sure if its right


Was that the probability question with the hotel and stuff.
I got 33 because I did:
P(DIBnR)*number of people + P(DIB'nR)*number of people
9/20*40 + 15/37*37 = 18+15 = 33

Thank you. Think I did fairly well. Probably dropped about 10 marks max.
Do you know how many marks 90 UMS was last year?

66 for 90 UMS so probably about the same this year or maybe even 65

Yh you had to use the previous question. I remember doing a very similar question the night before so I knew I was doing it right

Thank you.
I think I got 62 marks, what grade do you think it is? I flopped badly in this exam, because I missed a question accidentally :frown:

An A
69 for C1
67 for c2
52 for S1

sign, there goes my a* for maths
On that question when you have to say how the new data piece will effect the mean and Standard Deviation, will i get marks for just putting;

The mean will stay the same

The standard deviation will decreases

Thanks in advance :smile:
71/75. Any UMS predictions for me? @Zacken or anyone!

(PS: What would 73/75 on C1, 75/75 on C2, and 71/75 on S1 roughly be as an overall UMS?)

Thanks, and best of luck I hope you all achieve the grades you want!

You may get 1 or two, but you needed some reasoning behind it
how do you do the very last venn diagram question? it asked how many had dinner so i just did 77 * the probability of the dinner section and ended up getting decimal numbers

Your probably looking almost at the full 300 UMS Marks Mate,

C1 - 98

C2 - 100

S1 - 97/98

Worst case scenario, 295 UMS

Cheers! However this is obviously assuming I got all method marks... I'm confident with the 100 UMS in C2, and the high 90's in C1, maybe 93-95 in S1 potentially?

We'll see! Nonetheless it's a good amount of UMS so I'm happy! How are your results looking?
