Who is expecting distinction in Maths Paper?

[dragoninja98]

Though i aint one of the lucky fortunate people who ace maths .....I think that till now Paper 1 was pretty easy and i am sure that everything goes well (Paper 2 is easy as well) then we might be expecting distinction on hand writing too !
As many people will easily be scoring excellent marks.....At least in my school 3-4 people expected distinction.....i wanna know how many expectations are there in the world !

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

well it depends on maths p2. If it goes as well as p1 then hopefully i could expect a distinction...!

 

[SalmanPakRocks]

me too !! Paper 1 was very easy now lets wait for Paper 2 !! only time will tell that who gets the distinction or not !!

guys, how many marks get deducted if your method and everything is right but there's a calculation error?

 

[Silent Hunter]

tht depends.....how much of ur calculation is correct

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

and the number of marks of that question

 

[Silent Hunter]

^^ correct

 

[abc123]

lol they were 1 mark questions. i wrote the right answer then god knows did an error while rechecking and wrote the wrong one >_<

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

then you wont get any mark for that. sorry! There would have been a method mark if the question was of two or more marks.

Guys dont get your hopes up too much...I understand that paper went really well...but just hope for A or A*...Distinction is just bonus...Dont aim for the highest mountain...climb them one by one.

When you have high hopes is when you achieve something.

But when hopes are high, u loose your concentration in the next papers, become over confident and afterwards, regret ur result..:/

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

thats called being overconfident. Having high hopes and being overconfident are two very different things!!

 

[RaTeDRSuPeRsTaR]

u never know, junior..

 

[iFuz]

“In all things it is better to hope than to despair” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


Being overconfident is one separate thing. I guarantee that you go into the examination hall with "high hopes" that you'll get an A*, don't you, rather going into the hall with low hopes that you'll never make it. Overconfident is when your sure about something and act cocky. Hope is the feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best. I HOPE that your confusion is solved between these two distinctive words.

Very well explained.!!!
I think I can say "Come on bring it on" to tmorrows ppr without being called overconfident.
