Edexcel AS Mathematics: Mechanics M1 6677 01 - 06 June 2018 [Exam Discussion]

Part (b) and (c) are wrong. Also Q2 is 6.66N

There you go, at least 5 marks gone . Are you sure about Q2? Many people here got 5.42N as least, and others got about 15/16N if you put Friction is the wrong way.

I got 5.4N 2 s.f

It's 6.66 since u had to use sin/cos 50 not 20 to resolve vertically and horizontally

Anyone else think it was a really hard paper??

OK. So I was retaking M1 this year, got a B last year, and this time round it went to absolute sh*t. I just wasted £18 lmao.

My question is, are they gonna use my grade from last year since I did better, or will they use this year's *****er grade to work out my overall grade? I know they will probably use my better grade but I was just wondering.

They use your better grade

I got 6.8 something which then should give you 6 people in the lift.

If you got 33.1N for P, how many marks would you lose roughly? I want to calculate what I could roughly get...

Thanks!

I am assuming you used friction in the wrong direction. And if you also used the wrong angle then you are definitely losing methods marks and accuracy towards the end. I think around 5 marks. If you used the right angle prob max 3-4.
