C3 OCR Jan 2013 Preparation Thread!!

M2 and S2 are complete opposites for me, M2 i've done loads of papers for but don't feel confident at all while for S2 i've only done 6 papers and I feel pretty confident with it

Still no S2 thread

D2 will be **** for me! I will need to spend a lot of time learning these silly pointless algorithms

haha yeah iv heard S2 is wayy nicer than S1. I'll be doing S1, FP1 and C4 after Jan exams.... what modules are you doing?

C4, D2, FP2 oh and I may selfteach FP3.

The evil part of me hopes you get a horrible D2 exam now, so when I do it in the summer it is nice and easy

I personally would tell you to be afraid of M1, my June M1 exam was easier than any past paper i've done I swear, so I guess the January paper will be very hard... I've already done S1 and FP1 as you could've guessed.

S2 is not nicer than S1 imo, S1 is more about understanding the situation presented rather than actual maths though. Loads of people say D2 is easier than D1 but from the theory I've learnt in D2 thus far i'd disagree.

D1 was easier to learn, D2 is difficult and more confusing to learn more than half of the topics we learnt when we do them in class the whole class is clueless we had a mock before we closed and no one got > 60% the majority of marks where 10-45% only two people got over 50% its terrible and decision maths is the only module that is ruining my maths grade

Yess i know im very scared of M1 im thinking in January it will be hard i did the Jun 2012 paper but at the time had done no revision and got an E which tbh i REGRET hugely because i could have got an A on that by the sounds of it im guessing you scored 100% on M1? How is FP1?

Can someone please tell me how to get 4i, 7iii, 9ii please for January 2009? thanks

Subbing to this, got C3 and Biol4 in January

How is revision going for everyone?

only 2 exams? damn lucky you! Revision is going fine! Onto the 07 papers really aiming to do the 08s and 09s before we open then the college weeks finish of the 10s have already done 12 and 11s

nice I've done 2005s, 2006s, Jan 2007, 2008s and Jan 12. Need to do the spec and all the later papers! Have to nail this C3 as I would love an A* in Maths!

yess would be lovely im also aiming for the magic 90 but i heard the june 2012 paper was easy and not that hard so this scares me because it means jan 13 will be rock hard

Ah no bad times I found the Jan 12 quite a challenge when I did it, but looking over the mark scheme has helped so much!

can anyone get a hold of the c3 june 2012 paper please?

Can someone please tell me how to get 4i, 7iii, 9ii please for January 2009? thanks
