Yeah same AQA but higher, and our school doesn't do study leave which sucks but I took a day off & Yeah I'm also spending my day doing maths. Hopefully, it should be a better paper than paper 1 for me anyway! Thank you and goodluck x

No idea but look at the old grade boundaries and add a few more marks should give u an approximation

How about if there's a topic which you got wrong in a practise paper but you know you know it (if you know what im trying to say) Should you still go over it again just in case or is that wasting your time? I'm not even aiming for a 9 but I would like to know

Edexcel from 67- 72 for a 9,
AQA will be similar but a bit less

It depends on how well everybody does if everyone did really bad the grade boundaries will be lower but if people do really well with it the grade boundaries will be higher
I've gone through the predicted paper on onmaths, and am now using Seneca Learning to practise the topics I got wrong on that...

I was thinking of using seneca but didn't kno if it would be any use for maths - do u think it's effective?

Yeah I'm finding it useful for just learning the concepts and practising the stuff I struggle with

Not sure if you are asking me specifically. Do you mean if you are, for example, you good at surds but then you get a question on surds wrong should you revise that topic again? I would say no because its usually just the style of question rather than a weak topic that causes the issue, instead look for more questions of that style eg if you stuggle on a surd question that asks you to simpily an a √a / √b + c question then do more of that style of question rather than recapping simple surds.
Hope that helped.

I think 65+ for edexcell but it can vary by a bit.
