I’ve been getting consistent sixes through all my past papers and i got a seven and eight in my last two past papers but for some reason i could not understand the context of the questions in the exam paper, ive revised the subjects i just find trouble in applying them in context and mess up with easy substitution such as squaring it instead of multiplying by two, i need the bare minimum of a seven is there any way someone can help?

Does anyone know how to increase my grade from a 6 to a solid 7-8. I keep getting just below a 7 which is frustrating considering I feel like I am at my limit…despite doing maths everyday.

one of them is the cosine rule for an angle, s=d/t p=m/v (they can ask us on speed and density) and tbh im looking for equations myself

i got that de was 4(ef) so de and ef are parallel, and as point E is common, it is a straight line, i got de as like 8a-4b and ef as 2a-b

I think 4/5 but if the mark scheme is harsh it might be 3 but that seems a bit extreme
