Edexcel Maths Non-Caculator Paper

post removed

I'm presuming they work out the final score by the average of the three papers. What do you think the average will be if the other papers are the same difficulty?

I predict

9 - 75%
8 - 70%
7 - 60%
6 - 50%

Sound about right?

Hi,
Yeah I found it ok. It was not terrible.
For the simultaneous, I got x=-2 and y= 68 i think but some people got square root 2 for x.
The proof question guessed all of it.
The washing machines question, I got £480.

I did it wrong and got £500. I assumed that the 20%VAT meant that the VAT was 20% of the original price.

I'm usually an A* 8/9 student and I found the last 6-7 questions pretty hard. Onlt didn't answer the last question as I didn't have enough time. Hoping for anything over 65 but will be happy with anything above 60.

I thought 90% or 94.4% was a 9
80% was 8...

Maybe I am wrong
