Preparing for Maths Paper 4.. Any help that can be provided?

[BliTz97]

Hey guys! I am sure maths is a big shocker subject! Which all of us might like and might hate! As tomorrow is the 130 mark paper. Any one wanna share anytips? resource material and anything like that? Help the community like this and not by sharing papers ( I saw a post earlier. )

I really want an A In Maths and I think I got 54 out of 70 .. So i how much do I need for an A?

Hey, my exam's tomorrow as well
Best tip I can give you is go through past papers. Don't examine yourself, just look for tough question. For example, if you have problems with sequences (like me xD ) look for questions that concern that topic and go through them. This is math; you don't get the same questions every year, so by going through difficult questions, you're kinda teaching yourself how to handle tricky situations on the exam.
Oh if you have a problem with circles and that geometry crap, (this is what I tell all my friends ), STARE! Yes stare at the circle and you will find what you're looking for.
About grade boundaries, it depends. But I have a feeling they're high this year, because paper 2 was pretty easy.
Best of luck

i feel for you bro , cause i myself am not sure of how i did in paper 2...
the best thing to do would be that you forget about paper 2 and just think that whatever you do in paper 4 is your final result , that way you'll do better.
you dont want to be thinking negative before the paper , just keep your hopes high , solve past papers and hope the grade boundraies are low.

dude don't worry just make it up in p4 if u get like 105 and 35 is 140/200 i think that is A so A is not a bad result just word hard for p4 here are a few notes

Hey guys, just worry about the upcoming paper.... Everything will be fine n hope for the best.
I feel as if we have to practice nth term/sequences cuz the questions may get worse in many cases!
Rest will be fine IA!
Stay Calm! N Hope For The Best!
GOOD LUCK!! (Y)

between an A and a B as the trend of the grade thresholds go....dont question your self cuz its over and dont jinx it by guessing marks all you can do is fix what you have done in paper 4

not all the time , iam guessing we get a decent paper 2moro

 

[uzair shahid]

maths paper 2 was easier than last years, so im guessing the thresholds will be high.

Assumptions are the reasons for all problems

 

[roubair ashraf]

guys dnt worry at all about p2 all wut is done is over...now take care in p4 and study well
btw p2 is only 35% of the total while the majority (65%) is for p4
i really hope the thresholds r low this year

 

[omaaaar]

ThIs year threshold of maths and chemistry will be low as we had three papers in a day

 

[BliTz97]

ThIs year threshold of maths and chemistry will be low as we had three papers in a day

''Stare'' is a good word to describe geometry
