wjec c1 maths 13th may

How did you manage to use right-angled triangle trigonometry with a right-angle?? XD
You won't lose all the marks.

So we're both applying for Cambridge maths?

No man, i'm applying for medicine, and it's so competitive that the average ums last year for successful applicants was 96ish %

Wow, I guess you still need massive UMS for maths then!!
And definitely Chemistry, which I only need 80 in!
Are you doing WJEC Chemistry?

I know I was so stupid ������ I just put it in between AC because I couldn't think where else it would go ( not thinking about d) silly mistake as I didn't read the question properly as per usual with me

Don't you still need a high average UMS for all your subjects though?

Nah not really chemistry... I don't like chemistry...
That's not to say I won't get high UMS in chem because I am putting a lot of work in and CH1 is very easy (I haven't even started CH2 papers).
Physics is fairly important in terms of UMS, I guess, but I'm very good at the 'mathsy' module PH1 and PH2 needs a LOT of work.
Maths and FM I would like 600/600 total UMS (ideally!). Just to really make Cambridge want me.

Do Cambridge accept Welsh bacc? haha

I don't know much about Welsh bacc
You'd have to find out by looking them up.

Don't you do Welsh bacc in your school?

Don't you do Welsh bacc in your school?

That's what I did, I didn't show it as 1/20 though, I just said if you put 40 into the equation you get a positive value so therefore it's a minimum. Will I still get full marks?

They aren't ever going to 'really want you' for your grades. Those are expected.
They look at so much more than that.

All they expect is 90+ UMS. Anything more puts you ahead of the pack. There's not that much more than they look at, since the admissions test is part of the offer. UMS is the main factor and definitely the biggest reason why they'd interview you. They don't even care about your extra-curricular activities!! The only other factor is what kind of interest you've taken outside of the curriculum and whether you actually have a passion for maths. That's all you need for an interview. To do well in the interview you just need to show that you're good at problem solving and very teachable. And for the admissions test when you've got your offer you just need to be good at problem solving.
For maths, there's not much that they look at. They want you to be good at maths and want you to be easy to teach in supervisions etc. Of course, for other subjects, there are many other important factors, but not for maths.

Sorry, were you the guy for maths or medicine?

Maths? I thought I made it pretty obvious...

Thought you were someone else, my bad.

At least now you now a bit more about the Cambridge maths application process XD
