Mathematics A LEVEL p32 2012

[shikhar2007]

anyone thinks that this paper can beat the GT of june 2008 and be less than -26 ?

Dont wanna be an ass but the GT for E was 22 lol!! I am hoping to get like 45-50 / 100 in P3 but I'm failing my S1 paper will I get and overall pass?

I got 58 for my As level Paper P1 & M1

i meant that the A for paper 3 can be 49 to 50 and the maximum mark of the paper is 75 not 100 ,so if u got about 50 u can achieve that pass mark right ?

and you meant 58 perecentage or marks ?

The paper was not that tough guys, but it was wrongly set...In my opinion these people did take into account the pressure we would have in z examination room....futhermore the logical structure was not good ,the level of questions should start from easy to difficult, bt it was not like this, the vector one was indeed easier compared to the locus one....bt many was unable to complete due to loss of time because of the above questions ...i fink Cambridge does not go through human psychology before setting a paper.....so we should appeal for it

O contraire, I believe they took into consideration our exam stress this time and put questions which demanded thinking quickly which would not be possible for loads of students, including me. 3 questions demanded to use some logic and apply the theorems you learned, we all know infinity = 0/1 but during the exam many couldn;t apply this. I guess the teachers should post to cambridge and let them know. I heard teachers have forums where they can discuss in CIE site, so I guess it's the best way to get Thresholds decreases, maybe 46-49 for A in P3. It won't be less than 46 in my opinion.

Indeed, this is the reaction of students as they could not apply the law for infinity, it not because they have to logic bt the structure of the paper was like this ..i'm saying this because more than half students got such problem.. so the majority wins. n yea hope the gt would be below 50 for A

Buddy u made a mistake in Question 6, integration of dx/x is ln x..hence your answer is wrong..

 

[srijitsharma]

yeah, it was very difficult paper..!
threshold must be down..

You are right. I made a mistake. I will make the necessary correction soon. Thanks mate.
