you are most likely an a2 resit, and you're not taking into consideration that the people who use student room are normal a/b grade students and you all forget about the countless numbers of people who will fail this and as there were no easy marks ( box plots) (draw venn diagram) in which people will pick all their marks up on. meaning boundaries will be significantly lower than last years by 2 marks give or take you found it easy because you're either retaking and have had 2 years of stats or you are naturally good at maths and will therefor be park of the a* boundary in which will not affect the other boundaries. so don't be so patronising for the other students by saying that the boundaries will be 64 for an A or definitely won't be sub 60 for an A.


changed it to 58 since I saw the percentage of people who found it hard. Personally, I thought it wasn't too bad, not easy. Think i lose like max 13 marks myself because of the stupid mistakes and theory questions.
Yes i am re-sitting but I flopped it last year and only did S1 for a week before the exam, also a lot of Y12 kids I know said it wasn't hard. Maybe because they're from a grammar school. So i based it off that before. Regardless it was my personal incorrect prediction. Dont get so worked up
Can anyonw walk me thru how they got their answer for Rach and Sarahs q

Go back to June 2010 and it was 69/75 for 100 UMS (in Jan 03, it was just 63! but the course is a bit different over a decade later).

So it can go a fair bit lower than 73/75 but you're assuming this year's paper was tougher. Personally, I would agree, but I wouldn't expect it to be below 71.


No way!

Definitely 75 for 100ums! Or in the very extreme circumstance it may possibly be 74.

No way in hell will it be as low as 71- sorry to break the truth....

Just a quick question guys, I do As maths and fm, if I did badly in s1 and good in m1 would s1 be moved to fm and m1 be moved to maths?

I've got one up, but I'm not sure how accurate it is. Arsey isn't allowed to make them any more so we can't expect any from him :frown:
