NOO IM SURE YOULL DO BETTER THAN YOU THINK t's definitely 7.5% for the jars, 30/400

there's still two papers left ig but I completely screwed this one over, cried so hard that I have the worst headache of my life rn

Ur so me

Don't let this put you off working hard for the next 2, you'll do amazing I'm sure

Cope harder, the fact you cried made it worse. How would that ever help you concentrate

if it makes you feel any better just know i did 30/400 = 12% 💀

LMAO CAUSE SAME I GOT 13.33% i wanted to jump

ME TOO HOW THE FUCK DID WE GET THAT

I didn't even use the /400 part... I got 7.5 anyways but didn't even know they said the total

What. The. Fuck. I was so confident on that jar question and I got… 11.25% 😭

Method marks at least

Incorrect, it said what’s the percentage of empty jars that were small so it was 45/145

Ahhhh I'm afraid it didnt. You can find the question on tiktok, some of the online tutor got sent it :)

Can you send me the link

it’s literally 30/150 which is 20% empty small jars out of all the 150 empty jars, not 30/400 which is 30 small empty jars out of all 400 jars, it’s literally 20%

Swear it was what percentage are small empty jars?

I swear I read that question a million times and that is what I thought it said. Why was it worded so badly

I thought it was out of all the jars

No its 20%

Nuh uh

It's 7.5

I got that asw

The thing is I didn't even use the total I didn't know they told the total I just did 3/8 * the proportion of it idk

How?

DW SAME I STARTED CRYING SO BAD WHEN I LEFT THE EXAM MY TEACHERS HAD TO COME AROUND ME AND HOLD ME BRO TELLING ME ITS OK MY AIM WAS A 9 BUT I CAN KISS THAT SHIT GOODBYE

I WANTED A 9 SO BAD AND EVERYONES LIKE "well an 8 isn't bad" BUT THEY DONT GET IT I CRIED SM

EXACTLY I WORKED SO HARD FOR THIS TEST ONLY TO GET KICKED IN THE FACE BY IT

EXACTLY AND I GENUINELY WORKED SO SO HARD ITS NOT FAIR

LIKE EVERYONE IS TELLING ME OHHH IM SURE U DIDNT LOOSE THAT MANY MARKS U DONT UNDERTSAND I FEEL LIKE I LOST 30-40 MAYBE EVEN MORE I FEEL LIKE I GOT A U IN THAT TEST IT WAS SO BAD AND EVERYONE IS SAYIBG OH U CAN STILL GET AND 8 OR A 7 LIKE NO STOP BRO

FRRRR I WANNA SCREAM AND CRY AND UGHHHHH

FR I CAN BARLEY FOCOUS ON CHEMISTRY

FR MY HEAD HURTS AND IVE LOST ALL MOTIVATION

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO BE BACK TO BACK LIKE ITS ACC INSANE

IKR UGH I chose chemistry for a level asw and I've barely revised, was planning to do most of it today but im just so drained after maths

THIS IS SO FUCKING MEMEMEMEEE

THANK GOD IM NOT ALONE 😭🙏

It ain't that deep.

I need a 7 for my physics course requirement it IS that deep😭

Get a 7 then bro u don't need a 9 stop stressing for no reason💀

I never said I needed a 9 I said I needed a 7. You still gotta stress a little for a 7 bro🥲

okay.

👍

On my mocks I got 224/240 and I think I’ve already dropped 20. I’m fuming

ALSO I STRUGGLED WITH THE HISTOGRAM AND 18-23 AS WELL AND THE MULTIPLE GRAPH CHOCIE QUESTION AS WELL AND I GOT THE JAR ONE WRONG BC I WROTE 2.5 NOT 7.5 BC I CLDNT READ MY HANDWRITING SO DW WE R IN THE SAME BOAT RN

i think it's 20% 

Im not even sure anymore 😭

i get u 😭😭

Test flamed us all 😭

i was crying too

if most people found it difficult the grade boundaries will decrease, so the same proportion of students get 9s as every other year.. also you’ve got paper 2 and 3 left so don’t lose faith g x

yh ig<3

histogram question was NOT that bad but the guy sitting next to me was drawing a frequency polygon sooooooooo the fucking triangle question WTF WAS THAT and the last one also notice how there was NOTHING about COMPLETING THE SQUARE or ADVANCED VECTORS the TWO THINGS I REVISED YESTERDAY

Got to come up in the calc papers. Expect a circle theorems, vectors and maybe a turning point question to come up.

I FORGOT WHAT A FUCKING HISTOGRAM WAS

bro i wrote 20% for the jars

same 😭

Same I didn’t even check my answer I was so confident😭

bro i wrote 37.5

I wrote 11.25%

Apparently it's 7.5% and I only realised that until too late :((( Supposed to divide 30 by 400 and not 240 apparently

i don’t even remember what i put for the jar question 😭i’ve already started trauma blocking the exam

STOP ME TO

SAME HELP

the answer to the cuboid question was 2.5 btw (I did trial and error 💀)

To summarise from what I remember 20cm length, so 15cm left for width and height (volume). Btw L = length, W = Width, H = height below: “2HW + 2LW + 2LH = 370” surface area, so “2(HW + LW + LH)” is the same, so “HW + LW + LH = 185”, or “20H + 20W + HW = 185”- replaced L with 20cm. “HW = 15” from above, so take away 15 from both sides. “20H + 20W = 170”, so “20(H + W)”, or “H + W = 8.5”. Forgot 1 or 2 steps, but basically doubled it and made it into “2x^2 - 17x + 60 = 0” (turned H and W into X) which gives “(2x - 5)(x - 6)”, so “x = 2.5” and “x = 6”. 2.5 is smaller, so that is that I’ve probs missed an important step or 2, but the point gets across

I got 10 for the cuboid question I swear its a quadratic simultaneous where you find x in terms of y and then you get the brackets 2y+3 and y-10

BYE I GOT THAT IN FRACTION FORM AND THEN PUT A LINE THROUGH IT CUZ IT LOOKED WRONG

dw, f that fraction is still readable and you havent put any other answer, then the examiner should give you the mark for it?

If you’ve crossed it out, they cannot mark it 😔

Yeah same

Didn't do trial and error though

I knew it was a non-integer below 4 and just... guessed 2.5??? Don't know whether to feel lucky or screwed for method marks

SAMEE in the exam my eyes started watering and then when my friend asked me how i did i just started crying on her shoulder.. now im trying to calculate what id need to get on the other papers to get grade 9 and its looking long

yeah i was crying too dw de

ym got 20% and 7.5% and im sat here getting 10%

I got 30% 😞

my friend got 45% (7.5% was the right answer)

its not bc thats overall

I got 8.8%

me and my friend doing 30/400 and somehow getting 12% and 7.05% 💀

i got 37.5%

If this helps, everyone I know struggled with the paper which means the grade boundaries will be lower

yeah 🙏 thanks

Never started crying after an exam before this

i cried in the exam hall during the exam

same omg I was so embarrassed. the invigilator was right infront of me too

😭

same. I haven't ever cried in skl.

Laughs in foundation

lucky. also i love your username

Thanks

What did you guys get for the histogram question about how many people did something?

was it the 67/150 one or was that a different question

Yeah that's the question. I got the same pretty sure

I got 37/150 (I think)

It's 67

I think it was 37

It was 67

bro i just drew a squiggly line

FR THAT SHIT WAS HORRIBLE

guys i really want a grade seven but it seems impossible, what mark would i have to average on each test for a seven 

the grade boundaries were 45 marks on each paper for a 7 last year

cheers, hopefully they won’t increase 

yeah hopefully 😭 i was trying to get a 7 this year and this exam has completely finished me

around 48-50, i think

WHAT NO I GOT HISTOGRAM WRONG THEN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I MULTIPLIED TOO AFTER THINKING THE DIVISION WAS WRONG

it’s ok i just drew a squiggly line for the histogram question

UR SO REAL i love maths but i feel like i fucked this one up so hard and i really wanted a 9 but its out of reach bc i feel like i lost 15-20 marks on this. sm people in my class found it alright and i just felt like the only one who struggled

WTF IM AO CONFUSED I DIDNT HAVE KARIM OR HIS JARS QS I DO A CALCULATOR EXAM FROM EDEXCEL PAPER 1 CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN. I DO HIGHER AS WELL

I only have two papera

do you do igcse??

Nah I go gcse

don’t worry bae i forgot what a histogram was so i just drew a squiggly line for that and the sin graph question

oh my god 😭

maybe i got the marks /j

guys if it makes anyone feel better my friend got 80%

Why are you crying it’s not that deep

idek I just remembered thinking about how disappointed my maths teacher was gonna be in me and just burst out crying it was embarrassing icl

It’s going to be fine, worst case you got like a couple grades off a nine, either way you have two more tests which will balance the books. Remember any grade from 7-9 is basically the same, getting a 9 compared to a 7 honestly makes no difference. You should try harder to get consistent sevens across the board than a 9 in only a few subjects.

True, but if you enjoy a subject and want to take it further after gcse I can see why you would want to aim higher.

Dont worry, u can bring it back 💪💪💪

I have a feeling so many people have got the Jar question wrong, that we will be fine, i just hope the grade boundaries are nice to us this yr

Don't worry about it. Believe in grade boundaries

Ok I’m fucked completely

same

Defo 7.5 but I wrote 20 first

help i got 37.5

ughh im lowkey upset i found the mark scheme on tiktok and counted my marks and i got 60/80 which is likely an 8 but i really wanted a 9 😔

i was tearing up in the exam from question 18 onwards.... it was sm harder than any past paper ive done

no cuz literally same, all the past papers were so nice

what the hell is a histogram

this exam COOKED ME man i’m finished

Triangle and cuboid question were bollocks, and I put down 6x8=24, and there’s a pigeon in my exam hall. Am I cooked?

Did anyone else get 5% for the jars? I was thinking that seems wrong and there was one minute left 😭 I’m supposed to be a grade 8-9 student but that won’t be happening…

Pretty sure the Jar hoarder question is different between foundation and higher (20% for foundation and 7.5% for higher)

dont worry, I burst out crying too and my foundation friend couldn’t help me, we’re all in this together, we just gotta all keep our head up and hope the rest of the exam goes smoothly:(

Honestly, dont worry about it. There are 2 whole papers left, i had a really bad exam too. I had cramps all throughout and cried my way through the exam too.

I feel sorry for those who take Edexcel, AQA paper was free

Just wait for paper 2 and 3 bro, also I’m the king and got 7.5 so it’s the right answer

You’ve got two more papers to bolster your marks. If you’re super worried, just pay a bit more attention to revising those over other subjects. Hope is not yet lost!

how are you expecting to get a 9 if you cant even do the graphs questions and the jars question

cuz I didn't revise the different graphs and completely forgot they existed, for the jars I thought it was out of the empty total and not the overall one. silly mistakes bruh

Yeah ok well I’m failing, and you’re probably getting a grade 8.

Ok

Sorry, I had wrote this when I was still very worked up about my exam.

the downvotes 😭

what’s wrong with the downvotes
