I actually think FP3 was one of my better units this year. I agreed with all my teachers answers on that from what I could remember, so maybe we all did better than first thought


Maybe it had a fair mark scheme. It went well but I sat last year's exam and it was more straight forward for me. That substitution this year was a stinker.

Yeah the integration was less obvious in this years. Although, I did last years as a mock in May before the exam and thought it was the hardest to date until I saw this years. Last years had high boundaries too, so it seems a common theme with FP3
Why does the examiners report make this exam seem like it's the easiest it's been in a generation when everyone wanted to kill themselves after it???*:s-smilie:

The Further Maths ones are often like that.

"Most students easily..."

Yeah, sure.

No, if you are in AS year and get above 90ums it gets put down as an A .

Maths went as expected, though the 100 UMS in C3 is completely UNexpected :biggrin:
As far as Further Maths is concerned, I found the exams quite tough and wasn't sure if I'd get a B grade. Not sure why, but FP4 (A grade) completely saved me and balanced it out onto B. Good think I retook 2 AS FM modules as that put me up from a C to a B too!

Overall, not too bad but could've been better! :biggrin:
