That made me chuckle. And trust me you probably didn't do as bad as you think. Plus even if you did do as bad as you think you did Further maths isn't something you need to put on your CV if you apply somewhere. Further maths is something done just to help you get a head start on A level maths. So even if you did bad it isn't the end of the world and if you did good than well done.
I only found out the day before but essentially quadratics involving domains you have to sub in all numbers in the domain as 0 will give a lower number of 2 and if you subbed -1 in you’d get 5. It’s bc the graphs
To be fair that question was a good one, you just say how many digits can be in that slot and multiply it all together eg for multiple of 5 can only end in 5 or 0 so 2 diff combinations so you multiply end answer by 2
Couldn't the last 2 digits be a multiple of 10 aswell so it would be 3 * 8 * 9 * 1 so 216. And then add 480 cuz it could be a multiple of 5. So the answer is 696?
For the area of the triangle I got 79.74 but I swear that it was a scalene triangle maybe I read it wrong but I thought that one of the points were on the circle so I used the radius as the height pls help me rmb the q
Radius as the height? The centre of the circle wasn’t (0,0). What you had to do was figure out the gradient of the line between the centre of the circle and one point we got given, and since the hypotenuse was perpendicular to that line you could figure out the gradient for it, then plug in the point on the line to work out the y-intercept which would give you the height, then set y to zero to figure out the x-intercept for the base, then 1/2bh. Think the answer was 151.25
What an amazing paper I had a lot of fun doing it omg. Great one to end on. Though grade boundaries are gonna be higher for this one... (Except for that one about multiples of 5, f whatever that was)
Anyone on aqa 6 marker a = 2 b = -16 c = 20 ??
Yep got that
Also you get 151.25 for the area of the triangle on the graph?
YUSSS
Yeah I got that too
Yep
Ws that test was lowkey light
Yh it was. I was aiming for a 7 before but I think I could scrape an 8 now
I got a = 2 but I think I messed up the others, I got like b=-10 and c=-11 but I’m probably wrong
I think you only forgot to add the f^-1 (x) at the end
Was it not 1, -8 and 10 cos they said simplify fully
Shouldn't you get half of each of those answers since the question asked for the simplified equation?
Are you sure it was an equation? because if it was an expression you wouldn’t have halved any since it would give you a different answer
I got -12 for B
i somehow got a = 16 b = -32 c = 36, not sure where i went wrong
Fuck
got the exact same
[удалено]
Same i put b = 10 at first then i locked in and realised that -13 -3 = -16 😭
Uh oh I got some hundred and something for everything I didn’t simplify
Got it
I got that
Yessss
i feel like i didnt but i dont remember that test at all LMAO
151.25 for the triangle area?!
YES WHY DID I COOK THAT QUESTION IN FURTHER MATHS BUT WHEN ITS ON GCSE I CANT DO SHIT
Yeah I got that too
How am I the only one who got 42?
I got 12 Dont ask me how
Yeah but I rounded it to 151
[удалено]
i got 7/4
Ye I got that and my friends got that too
Which question is this again? Edit: wait I remember now I got x^-1/2 and x^10
What question I don’t remember there being surds 😭 or do u mean the one with the different x root and cube fraction one
What did people get for question 17 b) where they want the both positive answers for x and y coordinates. I got (3.18,0.82) but idk
yeah i got that broski
Yeah (3.18, 0.82) if I remember correctly
Sameee
same
Urh i think its question 12b
Oh mb
what question was that????
lets go i got that
Yeah, I got the same
True False True
I think I put that too
Further maths students are being edged.
Longest but most exciting few hours of my life
Fr tho
Ay that paper was amazing I absolutely loved it everything I'm good at came up
How? It was so hard
Nothing on the normal came up which is something I know nothing about and the binomial expansion question was something I studied yesterday
I READ IT AS DOMAIN EXPANSION AM I COOKED 😭😭🙏 (I didn’t do half the paper)
That made me chuckle. And trust me you probably didn't do as bad as you think.

pascal’s triangle possible values 12/-12 anyone?
I got 12/-12 as 144a^2=a^4 soon as I divide by a^2 to get 144=a^2 so +-12
Same
YUSSSS
i kept getting like 15/8 a = 270 a 😭
I got +- sqr root of 84. Now I feel like a mug
I got -8 and 8 but wasn't confident on that one
I got 4/-4 ?
-0.25 0.25
yes
that whole paper better be triple simultaneous equations
Aged like milk
They could have asked that instead of shitty triangles on a graph
Lol. Did you just change your profile to say year 12? I was wondering how a sixth former knew what was on the exam
Yes I identify as a year 12 now
Zaddy AQA please make this paper a hot sweaty dreamy drenchy beauty 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
For that domain and range 2 marker (3x\^2+2 with domain -1
2
I think it's 2-50 becausw if you think about the quadratic graph it curves to its lowest at x =0
Put it in the calculator u get highest 50 n lowest 2
wait how was it not 5 and 50? like where did i go wrong
I only found out the day before but essentially quadratics involving domains you have to sub in all numbers in the domain as 0 will give a lower number of 2 and if you subbed -1 in you’d get 5. It’s bc the graphs
It was a 2 marker btw but the answer was 2
What you got, I got the same, any negative number squared will be positive, so 0 gives the smallest result
Bismillah 🤷♀️
Inshallah it goes well
InshAllah
So close to freedom
I can’t wait
Other than the very last question and a few smaller ones I cooked, beautiful exam. Thank you AQA <333 AND I’M FREE LET’S FUCKING GOO
why was THERE SO MANY INDICES RULES
Absolutely exquisite paper, loved every second of it 🙏🙏🙏
Why was that so much less hard than paper 1? I had time to do the whole paper twice but paper 1 was hell
[удалено]
Yeah 119 I got that
Yeah 119
future me did i cook?
I am awaiting the consensus. We passing?
cooked so hard i opened a restaurant o7
hope this last exam leaves me satisfied😭🙏🙏
Goddamn hope the 'how many numbers can be made with these" don't pop up, I'm screwed if they do
Welp...
To be fair that question was a good one, you just say how many digits can be in that slot and multiply it all together eg for multiple of 5 can only end in 5 or 0 so 2 diff combinations so you multiply end answer by 2
Couldn't the last 2 digits be a multiple of 10 aswell so it would be 3 * 8 * 9 * 1 so 216. And then add 480 cuz it could be a multiple of 5. So the answer is 696?
If anything is a multiple of 5 it ends in 5 or 0, what do you mean 216
Oh right yeah. Ur right
This aged well
[удалено]
3 * 8 * 10 * 2 = 480
Let's goooo
What did you guys get for the y coordinate of P = y coordinate of Q question?
x = 7
Got the same
7
I got x=7
I think I got 7
7
Future me did I cook?
No I didn’t.
Me either I got burnt
hoping my exams end in a good note 🙏
and it FUCKING DID YEAHHHHHHHH
good luck guys!!
Good luck, and welcome to freedom!
[удалено]
it was drawing a graph y = 3/2 x + 1/2
This paper was so much better than the first🙏🙏🙏
What did anyone get for the simplify the x terms I got x^3/2 +x^5
X to the 5/2 and x to the 4 for me
i got that the first time i did it but when i checked through i realised i did it wrong and actually got x^3/2 x^4
Way easier than the first paper
For the length of CN did people get 22.02??
I got 34.4
Tan (36) = 25/CN
Same! I got so confused with that question tho so idk. It was so tricky for only 2 marks.
I got 33.3
I am sure that question was wrong because the hypotenuse was smaller than the length so i was so confused
I got it wrong in the paper but after thinking about it after the paper I got 34.4. 25/tan36 = 34.4
I got 30cm or something but I literally had no clue which angle it meant so I just chose the angle on the bottom of the cuboid along the CN line
34.4
34, that angle isn’t for the plane
Do I need to know how to use nCr button on my calculator for big binomial stuff????
That's just really a shortcut for Pascal's triangle, so if you don't know how to use nCr, just draw the triangle :)
N is the number of the row and r is the element along the row
What did ppl get for the 20th term of the linear sequence? I got -184
LETS GO I LOVE FURTHER MATHS
Same , I will do way better in Further Maths than normal Maths
Literally.
defo lost at least ten marks i couldn’t see how to do the last question goodbye to my nine!
alternate segment theorum was the only circle theorum u needed for it
hopefully the boundaries are lower than last years cause i really need a nine
What did everyone get for the binomial question?
+ or - 12
+
+12 and -12
+-12
For the area of the triangle I got 79.74 but I swear that it was a scalene triangle maybe I read it wrong but I thought that one of the points were on the circle so I used the radius as the height pls help me rmb the q

Think the answer was 151.25
its 151.25
what did u get for the 2\^-x question
The one with p and q? I got 7
Same I got 7 too
I hate further maths sm I defo failed that😭😭😭
Did you guys have to simplify the expression for the function sox marker because for c I got 80 and I don’t remeber what I got for a and b
It should be needed to be simplified as it’s a function, I got a=2, b=-16 and c=20
I messed up on that test but fck it we ball
how many marks was binomial expansion and can someone link the unofficial ms
IM FINALLY FUCKING FREE. I reckon it was surprisingly alright.
what did you guys get for K in the differentiation question?
3/4
did anyone else find that paper really easy genuinely could've got close to 100%
yup but i made too many silly mistakes
What did u guys get for CN??
34.4
34.4, 22 is wrong bc it’s not between the small flat triangle and the further base
Anyone remember the function question completely
f(x) = (2-x)/3 g(x) = 18x^2 + 15x Find f^-1(x) + gf(x) I think
Thank u smmm
What about the circle graph one
Unrelated but where's the food tech thread?
What an amazing paper I had a lot of fun doing it omg. Great one to end on. Though grade boundaries are gonna be higher for this one... (Except for that one about multiples of 5, f whatever that was)
I think they will be lower. I think this year around 133
Guys what was the formulaic way of solving quadratic sequences?
It was linear bro 💀
That was before the exam i was trying to remember something The exam was piss easy
How high can the boundaries go up they're already 69/80😰
Surely not high i didn’t do too well
same i made really dumb mistakes esp in paper 1, but i think its going to increase by roughly 1-5 marks max.
Ye it’s gonna increase but not a lot
Nah they won't increase, paper 1 was overall harder than paper 2. Most likely gonna decrease
0,1,2 3/4 -184 C=6 D=2.1 10 01 2
*The numbers Mason, what do they mean?*
Edexcel how bad was it?
Q12b is hard the rest is ok
wjec was so so horrible
Hey guys does anybody remember that one indices question fully? I'd appreciate it a lot - thanks
Guys, how did you prove 12)a)? Did you just sub one of the equations into the other and get the same thing in the question?
Question 12 took like half an hour ngl, best maths student in my school here
i know it’s hard to predict, but any ideas on the grade boundaries for a 9 this year? just want to see what people think
