Wow.. Going through that I did better than I thought.
I got questions 23 24 28 wrong.
Only lost 9 marks out of 100. ;o

[Ailerons]

By any chance do you have the answers to the AQA version? haha

[:Edzy]

I'd need OCR LOL

[Redacted]

I need AQA :(

[Ailerons]

I thought the maths one was so hard! although that's probably because I thought it was only this year's topics so only revised year 11 stuff. :BangHead:

Dude, how did you get my school's login details?! lmao o_O

[BowTies1]

all schools use the same obviously

[Plank]

I got it from Yahoo Answers... Maybe someone from your school posted it there lol?


I think i've got the same exam tomorrow, i'm doing the maths Gcse higher tier non-calculator paper.

I'm laying a brick !!

I'm doing it a year early and don't feel like i know anything that we were meant to revise, so your not the only one because i am screwed as well !

Just go on the 'bbc bitesize' thing now or try 'mymaths' that's good, but you might need a password.

If you do then use mine, it's, Login: Whitbyhs
Password: divide

then on the next bit it's, Login: 113
Password: day

5 days ago Source(s):

Good luck ;)

[Ewss]

[Karma]

Wow, I counted how many I got right but I couldn't remember some, its like 70+ I think i'll defenitely get an "A" if am lucky "A*", just need to keep it up on the calculator paper!

Cheers for this!

P.S: We use MyMaths aswell LOL but our login and password are completly different!

[Florx]

Our lower sets in our school use MyMaths.

Top set don't bother.

Also I think I only lost a few marks on that exam, so I am pretty pleased.

[mangle]

[Meanies]

We did AQA i think.
we went n saw one of our teachers the other day 'cos we got bored waiting between exams and she'd gone through and done it all so we got to see answers then. Don't think i did too bad.

i love mymaths. deal or no dealll :D


all schools use the same obviously
no they don't.
each school who buys access to it gets a main login that anyone in the school can use for basic access, like getting on lessons. Then the admin of the school has another login which you use once you log in on the school's account and can make accounts for students, who login with the school's details first, then their own so they can do online homework thingys set by the teacher :)
