How many people get 100% in maths?

Ryan222

Just wondering?.....Nationally..do you think there are many, in both papers.

50 - 100

In the final papers I would say quite a lot, and in the modules too. I expect the coursework (if it is an exam board with coursework) lets most people down.

What do you mean.."thats Why"...I was wondering if ANYBODY got 100% in both...or at least was expecting the number to be small...I wasn't implying that the numbers are huge... :s-smilie:

wouldn't be that much as even the best people can make mistakes sometimes with a momentary lapse in concentration

I sat my GCSE maths last year and scored 100% (UMS) on all the modules. However in the terminal paper, i was around 4 marks off so that affected my overall GCSE UMS.

Well I'm doing modular so it's slightly differnt but the two modules I have done already with 4 papers between them are 100%. I just know I haven't done that well in my last module which is worth 50% of the overall grade.

The only place i lost marks on my gcse maths was on the coursework - same for electronics.

Id guesd the % of people getting a 100% is a lot higher in maths than it is in say english. Even if people find english easy its very difficult to get 100%. But in maths as long as you know the content there i no reason why you shouldnt get a 100%

GCSE maths is easy. many people get 100% in both. I prob could with 2 days of revision before exam.

ahh come on no need to rub it in :frown:

I didn't revise and hoping for an A* but no way did I get 100%. Does it get scaled up though like other subjects so you could get full UMS even if you dropped a few marks? Because then how would you even know who got 100%?

Not even the best people in my school get 100%. They know how to do every question and if you gave it to them one by one in a non-exam format, then they would get 100%. It's just really silly errors that they/we make.
