Maths Calculator 2nd June :(!

[Plank]

Anyone else got their maths calculator exam tomorrow? Not looking forward to it as the non-calc paper (edexcel) was easy so this one is likely to be harder. I managed to revise trig so not too worried about that. Oh yeah mine is in the afternoon (thank god :eusa_pray) so I can have a lay-in which means I don't have to worry about going to bed early and I can do some last minute revision in the morning. :blue_smil

[dirrty]

yh i have it tomorrow, aswell as electronics exam in the morning. havent revised much, but i am doing foundation lol. gonna cram the maths and electronics revision tonight and hope for the best lol.

[Jay.]

I have. I can't do it. OMDZ, i seriously can't. I'm CRAP at maths. Really bad. :eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall :eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall :eusa_wall

[Trayan]

Yes i have mine in the afternoon as well as an Engineering one in the morning so i hope i do my best.. i have done quite a lot of revision so i think it will be fairly easy. Good luck

[Bun]

i have it :), i'm looking forward to it in a perverse kind of way... :(.

[lAscend]

i have it but if it is anything to do with algebra and graph plotting and all that crap then im doomed :P

[Shinigami]

i also have it in the afternoon, but i still need to go to school in the morning :( im glad its in the afternoon though, last time it was in the morning and i nearly missed the exam

[Inseriousity.]

I'm AQA but it's the same exam and the same scenario! Easy non-calc, dreading it's gonna be a hard one! :( plus I hate revision so I haven't revised... so yeah it's one big mighty fail for me... :)

[Catzsy]

Thank goodness its all behind me! You can only do your best. Good luck everyone :D

[Meanies]

non-calcs are normally easiest.

I'll do some revision in the morning or go to the revision session thing at school.

There best be a 7mark simultaneous equation one like in our mock. I like them :)

[Jay.]

I already have a mymaths, login for our school :P

I just don't find that useful Thanks anyway :)

[Immenseman]

We've basically been taught whole year on mymaths, shame our teacher isn't the best because I think I could do so much better with an enthusiastic teacher.

[Throne Sofa]

I'm sure you'll live.

Would have prefered the exam in the morning, so I have longer to revise for Eng Lang and History in the afternoon but ahh well! Them to need a fair bit of revision too.

[Juch]

before my maths exam, i have to do a resistant materials one..

i hate having two on one day, i wish it was more spread out..

[Karma]

I can't wait for it! I'm almost all prepared to get an A/A* and then go college and do AS Maths! So eager to get it over and done with.

samee, they're both 2 hours each too aren't they?!

[Trayan]

I feel confident :rolleyes:

[Florx]

Good luck everyone, we are all in the same boat :p

[-Eliminate]

i hope the questions are the littlest things i never go over

eg in non calc stupid stem and leaf and 3d co ordinates

[Invent2]

Wow! I wasn't sure if I knew trigonometry that well, so I went to this site: http://www.gcse.com/maths/trigonometry.htm and it's REALLY helpful! It re-taught me all the things I thought I forgot and made the whole subject very easy to understand!

I feel a lot more confident for tomorrow now :)

[mr.parasols]

good luck all!

[Axel]

What sort of things will it be covering? I've done trigonometry, reverse trigonometry, powers, standard form, percentages, roots, decimals, fractions and other stuff.

[Alkaz]

Mine is today at 1 (:'() if it is anything like the first paper then my revision will be pointless, half of the non-calc we hadnt learned so ye :P! im doomed

[TidgyPie]

My whole school has a inset day today =D Except year 11's

Wooo

[Florx]

Shush. I'm in school right now "revising" maths for later.

Yeah, I'm revising all right. :p

[Inseriousity.]

Oh I should be revising but I cba :(

[Axel]

Im revising but we're off school forever now except exams.

[TidgyPie]

Most schools don't have study leave anymore, cause people didn't come in,
So they made in school studying... Still people don't go in lol.

[mangle]

It's going to be very hard

[Retroduck]

Good luck everyone.

I hope i do well, but the last one was easy.

[Throne Sofa]

tell me about it. on tuesday i've got an english and history exam, my arm is going to be dead! o.O
I've got that as well tomorrow. :(

[mangle]

I have English, I simply cba revising though :)

[Axel]

It think it went well apart from that fact I had to pay double bus fare on the way home because the guy was convinced I was over 16.

[Inseriousity.]

I hope they don't change the grade boundaries because both of the papers were easy :D

[Trayan]

I thought that was peace of cake. :eusa_danc

[lAscend]

First couple of question on the edexel foundation paper could be done by people in year 3 it was that easy but at the end or near the end of the paper i didnt not understand most if the questions on the algebra stuff like:

7y= something something, i went completely blank :(

[Plank]

Both papers were way to easy. Just got back from doing the higher paper (edexcel) and I could answer every question apart from the last one, which means I've only lost 3 marks.

I knew how to do them so i'm quite confident I've got most of them right, unless ive made some silly mistakes (which i usually do).

[Retroduck]

Im glad that maths is out the way now.
I found most of the questions ok, but some were confusing.

[Shinigami]

im glad its over now. i found most of the questions on both papers quite easy.

[Florx]

That was so easy!

[splatttt]

Argh.. it was quite hard. I found the last question really hard. I didnt have a clue... never even seen anything like that in my life.
The non calc paper was so much easier... lol :)

[Immenseman]

found them both hard.

[Juch]

found them both hard.

yea i found them a bit hard aswell, just glad its over and done with

[H]

I took a look at that paper yesterday as my friend resit her maths GCSE and all I gotta say.. was that it was a damn nice paper and you guys should be LUCKY. One of the easiest papers I've ever seen.
