Edexcel 80


If you work hard, I think you could but idk how hard edexcel is
Last year it was 170/240 for an 8
Assuming it rises lets say by 5 marks you wll need a miniumum of 175 marks.
175-47=128
128/2=64 marks on each of the next two tests in order to get an 8
In other words you want to be aiming for mid 60 to low 70 in the next two tests.
Hope this was helpful :colondollar:

i'm in the same situation tbh apart from the fact that I think I got like 15 marks because I panicked so much and ran out of time :frown: so paper 2/3 are my only options to do well , does anyone recommend mathswatch?

No I reallly want an 8 imao inshallah I’m gonna work super hard and calm the heck down
i know u want an 8 but tell urself a 7 would be just as good (this would make getting an 8 easier because less pressure)
idk if this means lowering ur standards lol i think of it as being nice to urself
