Did you guys do less or greater than 1/3 for the hypothesis testing ?

Reply 6

Greater but you could’ve done it both ways I think

Yeah I did less than but hopefully I made it clear which way I did it 😅

The type 2 error was one of the most horrible questions I’ve ever seen

For question 10.) I didn’t see the v-t graph (ye I knw, but I did the whole of mech in 15min, spent waaay to long on stats, except for the vectors forces and Q10.) I’m fine on mech), like in the last 20sec of the exam I figured out 10.), but couldn’t write it all down, part C.) THAT WAS SO EZ, literally solved it in my head on the way out!!!! It was shameful, down goes my 3 day revision…. Except for that the Stats bit was fine apart for the Hypothesis, in which I stupidly had the idea to do P(X=15) instead of P(X>=15), I’m genuinely vexed. Anyways, overall, what do you guys think in terms of raw marks, an ‘A’ would be, would u reckon somewhere in the 40 marks- 42marks /75 marks region?

I wasn’t expecting type 2 errors to come up seeing as they came up last year in stats

I think 40 or just under because they asked types of questions theyve never asked before but they werent too bad so it could go into the 40s
