Enough for a*?


I am in a similar situation. Hopefully it will be enough

Yes i do pure


What's the requirement in Pure Maths for A*? Is it 90% across all A2 modules like in FM? Or is it just C34?

I'm gonna blame Brexiters for my result in C4 because ngl, while I was doing the implicit differentiation (which I messed up), I kept thinking 'How did we vote to leave the EU?' :colonhash:


I wouldn't be surprised if this affected a few of the candidates who are very much in to politics. This decision was huge and even for me, someone who doesn't like to delve in to politics, I couldn't help thinking about it during the exam.

C4 you're definitely in the 90s. FP2 might be just below. C3 I can't really say because I took that last year. In recent years I'd say if it follows the trend you'd be above 90. However pre-13 it would be 80s.

Has the paper been posted anywhere?


Not that I've seen.
For the last question I put down mu equals + or - 2/5 instead of lambda equals + or - 2/5. Got the correct coordinates for E though. How many marks do you think I lose?

Yeah. Definitely a few people in my year I know will have been affected by it, especially since they were actively a part of Labour's Remain campaign.

I was just completely baffled at the vote and fearful of the future. A couple of hours of hysteria early in the morning :redface:

Do you get error carried forward if you made a mistake in the second part of the vectors question but the rest right based on that wrong answer?

recheck what you write

It's because the thing is that E was on line 2 but I put down the equation of line 2 in terms of lambda. However line 2 is parallel to line 1 and line 1 is in terms of mu. I'm worried they might take off some marks.
