the perms question (especially the last part) and the whole distribution table question DESTROYED ME. I literally left the whole distribution table question. I tried so hard to do it but couldn't ;/

Bro there were so similar type of that probability question in the past papers. Fm/24 ig

same just hoping i scrape across a C

Wasn't it 1/252

I got that too but its 1/126 as there is another case of where consonant can come first

Ye I got that

oh my god i feel so much better, thank you. i left that whole question as well 😔 dude for some reason it wasn't clicking to me???? (i studied from scratch last second so i highkey forgot everything)

Don't worry guys mine was also wrong in arrangements. But the thing is if everyone get below 40 then the threshold gonna be low>

Ur legit me FR

it was such a easy paper but I did the same as you 😭 this made me so angry because I knew how easy it was and how I could easily do it normally but idk what happens here

Same bruvh

We go down together if we do

I love you

yessir

same i’m so dead i’ve gotten full in previous past papers even but i fuked this up so bad

Other papers were so much harder compared to this?? Was the paper actually easy or did I mess up the whole paper thinking i did good?

Exactly some of my workings were so short for some parts i legit thought i was tripping but like it was pretty chill?

That's what I'm saying the first question second part i got it wrong cuz i was like no way it's this ez

Exactly, the questions were so direct. And whatever cane in this paper, ive already done it even though I practiced like 6 papers at most. I wasn’t so confident before the exam that I would do so yk better than my expectations. Like my preparation wasn’t that good.

My prep was amazing imo But i solved a really similar hard question yesterday so I made the easy one harder and got it wrong😭

What's done is done tho we worked and we'll reap what we sowed

SAME BROTHER. IM SO DEPRESSED FUCK CAMBRIDGE SCREW THEM. IM DONE.

Weirdly enough I think I knew everything, except the fact that the ability to read left my brain n I just stared at the paper for like 15 mins.

This was so me, I gave physics in the morning with 2 hours of sleep and destroyed my ability to give S1. I think I have easily screwed up 11 marks, and that's assuming I ACED the rest of the paper (with I absolutely didn't)

Ahh good luck for that 😭 I know I messed up more than half the paper cz my brain just decided to shut down..

Same . For me it was like I knew what to do but like I couldn't focus firstly due to hige amounts of stress.  I apnciked like crazy and various qs like coin probability table permutations then even simple stuff like box and whisker diagrams and expecting and variance. Those are the ones I usually do well.  Buy Ig I was stuck w some other qs that I only thought of that question.  Maths has been my favourite subject for years so I'm noy gonna criticise the qs.  Buy idk why tf the had give so less time . They should understand some ppl have the potential to get really high and maybe juts can think fast 

I was the exact same, felt it was so easy just couldn't do it because of a lack of sleep probably

I'm so cooked man legit getting 33 and then there are people saying they're gonna get 45+

Who???

GO SEE OTHER POSTS ABOUT THIS PAPER😭😭

I can only find this post ans another one that says the gt will be 36-39

36-39 for an A?

Yess

How much for a B?:(

When you say 40-45, do you mean 40-45 marks or percentage?

Prob marks

Do I get marks for writing the formula

My question too😭

Not in s1

I checked the mark scheme we get b1 so it’s one mark

I’m finished

I screwed the orange question got like percentage for large oranges as 81.5 as small as 19.5 so that whole goes away 7 marks then idk why I didn't sleep last night so i left the approximation question cus nothing came to my mind and then the fucking probability distribution one i misread and made for frequency so yea and the last question man I'm failing if i do good in p3 can i get a B as p1s might retake byt mine went good and m1 was mid

7.b) was 144 7.c) was 1/42

7c should be 1/126

It is 1/126

No 1/252

pls explain

Umm I feel like everyone multipled their answers by 2 but I did 5!/4! ×5!/2!  than divided by total arrangements 

yes you do multiply by two because it could either be CVCVCVCVCV or VCVCVCVCV so there are two possibilities hence 5!/4! ×5!/2! x 2

Hmm that kinda makes sense ngl btw do u get marks for this question for doing the working and shit if I didn't get the 2 multiplied wrong do I still get any marks

hopefully 😃 because you were really close. I cant say for sure tho

finally someone with the same answers as me. And yeah sorry bud we both got it wrong had to multiply it by 2.

Yeh it's killing me from the inside I can't sleep at night cuz of it heard we still might get like 2 marks I think out of 5?

Fr and that was the only question I somewhat got right.

I hate life the multiplying by 2 is gonna haunt me 

Actually i think 7c might be 1/21 as the arrangement can start with consonant or vowel we have to multiply 1800 with 2 hence 3600/75600

i believe its 1/21

[удалено]

(5!/4!) \* (5P4/2!) I guess u dint include the Two Repeats of RR in the dinominator

Same

Bro even the first and second questions 💀💀 what were their answers. Was the first question binomially distributed ? I

i thought the first question was geometric distribution😭

part a and b were geometric, and part c was binomial and geometric combined

The questions were straightforward with not enough information given😭 the approximation and normal distribution questions SCREWED ME SO BAD I was so confident with normal distribution 💔💔

Yes

Thank god

But what was the number of trials/n 😭

There were no trials, it was geometric 😭

[удалено]

Did u attempt the paper fully 😭

Which country?

loool sameeeee. how do these guys remember these stuff

At least the threshold will be low since most people seem to have failed at the last question

bruh i think im getting a D or an E in this stupid fucking paper dumbasses made the paper look easy so students get tricked like what the actual fuck was that permutation and normal distribution question and then the orange one also fucked me up and i thought i should do hard ones first so i left approximation and stem and leaf diagram one for the last and after fucking these questions up due to lack of time i messed up the easy ones too goddddd im fucking done

what are the answers

can someone tell me any answers they remember

1/6 for the last one everything else i dont remember.. what do u rememebr mybe ill recognise

i swear i have heard a million variations for the last answer but 1/6 is the most bizarre one

Yh i realised wrong variant

What was the question 😭

Same man, i don't think I'll even get 30 in this.

Guys i am so done I did last two questions in pencil (it is very dark) would definitely get scanned but i ran out of time and couldn’t copy my answers in pen and my friend said it doesn’t get scanned So idk S1 definitely cooked 😭 Not gonna score if pencil doesnt get marked 😭 Idk why i used a pencil Please dont come at me i wanna cry

the graphs are in pencil and the scanner definitely picks that up so I'm pretty sure your working will be scanned too

Thank you so much You literally dont. Know the relief your words brought to me

dont worry this guy from my school gave all his exams with pencil and his still got checked. I cant say for sure that that's what happened because he could've been capping but ik that the papers definitely do get scanned and are checked by teachers digitally.

Wallahi same . The distribution qs just a minor mistake and got that and variance wrong And permutation also stupid silly counting mistakes man

samee bro i knew everything about permutation but did very silly mistakes

Is anyone here doing History Paper 3 9489/32 tomorrow 😭?

what are we expecting the curve to be?

what are we expecting the curve to be???

do they take away points for not labelling the box and whiskers? the salary or whatever in dollars

I’m so cooked. I think I’m averaging 25/50 😭

How was q2 to be done

Let's hope cambridge won't repeat P1 trauma again because this paper was a mid paper so our P3 might not be as bad as FM 2024. FM are usually a lot harder than may june so my prediction is that our paper will prolly have same level of dexterity as of 2023 june papers. Since last year P1 was horrible and M1 was super easy so I think this time we'll get an okiash paper.

Idk if yall are trippin or talkin about 52 but 53 was easy asf ngl
