I'll be frank, I don't feel too confident with my C1 and C2 modules. Supposing I get full marks on the upcoming S1 module; what's the minimum grade I can expect to achieve with mediocre performance on the two core modules.
Thanks!
Thanks!

C1 went well for me (my guess is 68/75) ,however i genuinely think i got a U in C2 no joke
calculated that if i get 100 UMS in S1 i can get no higher than a high C
you probaby didnt do as bad as me though so...

Roughly 40-60% from both papers.
Roughly 40-60% from both papers.
None the less, if you get 50% average across C1 and C2 and then hypothetically get 100% in S1, you will end up with a C.
Again if you got 50% average in C1 and C2, the absolute minimum you would need in S1 to get a C overall would be 80%

Is it just me or does anyone else find S1 harder than other two modules?
I think i got around mid 60's in C1 and 2, but idk S1 is what makes or breaks me. And it isnt looking so good so far.

i think S1 lies between the two for me, there aren't any complex concepts in S1 like there are in C2 (Logs, trig etc.) but the questions require more work than C1

I don't know if you're on a different exam board, or there's a huge variation between my strongest and weakest topics, but out of all my modules. S1 is one of the hardest (did/doing C1-4, FP1-3, S1-3, M1-2) including S2 and S3.

Personally, i find most of the calculations in s1 ok, but i hate those questions where you have to write things for e.g "give an interpretation of the coefficient"

Ah right. OCR's s1 is awful, permutations and combinations crushed my mind. I was great at everything else though, so s2 and s3 are OK.

OCR is dodgy for everything, have them for Computing, most pedantic mark schemes i've ever seen.
