I am literally so scared for this exam, I mean seriously. :s-smilie:

I have had no time to revise as first I revised for my chemistry exam then geography which is TOMORROW!! and i have to do physics for Thursday and MATHS on top of all that.

I really want an a* but I have to push my self for that or I can just settle for an a but either way its going to be quite tough and so I will have to revise somehow.

Good luck to all !! :smile:

I'm doing the maths as well :s-smilie: I haven't really revised much for it, I got an A in the mock, but I don't trust mocks one bit ahaha, I'm most probably going to get a B overall anyway :smile: I hope it's understandable! aha

I've already got my B (I done unit 1&2 higher but the head of maths put all our class in for a foundation paper to get more points an I got a B overall)
So I hope I can get my A so I can do my A level maths

Anyone got the markscheme for the march 2013 u3 exam?
Hey everybody, just a quick question - do we have to know geometric proofs, like for the circle theorems??:confused: Thanks!

No you dont need to know how to prove circle theorems it isnt in the spec. Hopefully the exam tomorrow is easy, unlike last summers unit 2 exam :frown:

hey my teachers every year do a prediction thing and are always 80% right on most things that come up, they check past papers from years back and check, and checked the exam on Tuesday.. i am retaking my gcse for an A* and they predicted the following will come up
-trial and improvement -transformation
-histograms -similarity and congruence
-probability(tree diagrams) -indices
-best buy questions -Pythagoras
-angles -vectors
-percentages (compound interest) -solving quadratics (using formula)
-unit and conversion -standard form (significant figures)
-bearings -direct/indirect proportion
-upper&lower bounds -volume&surface area of prism
-trigonometry(sine/cosine rules) -mean estimation
-stratified sampling - area of perimeter of sector (arcs/sectors)
:smile::smile:

You do need to know the 7 rules because they ask for reasons why you have answered a question the way you have

Correct, the op meant proving the theorems algebraically. You ofcourse do need to know the rules. :smile:

Fingers crossed about the questions though.
