How was C1 lads?
Are you retaking? or just underage
I failed C1.
Now I'm an accountant.
that 1 mark sigma notation question tho
If you had trouble with C1 quit now. Seriously, not even trying to sound mean but the rest are so difficult jn comparison that it may be worth dropping the subject
>>28651831
Retaking
>C1
>S1
>All of AS Biology

For b) I just added a1 +a2 + a3.
Only now did I realise that it was (1 + ar). Surely they'll give me 1 mark for that, at least
>>28651858
I'm retarded so I'm not sure on this but I thought that using the formula they give you (2r+ whatever it was) you get 5 for every term
so a1 equalled 5 and a2 equalled 5 and therefore the sum is just 100x5
it was only 1 mark so whatever
I did AQA C1 and I'm pretty sure I got full marks.
If I did I'll have +40 UMS from last time, feels good.

You guys are pathetic. Enjoy your social science degrees
mother fucking normalfags, get the fuck off my board
>>28651861
I got a C at core 1 and got As in the Core 3 and 4 mocks and and A* in the Mech 1B mock.
So no, that's stupid. All you have to do is put in more effort.
>>28652015
I did the same paper I did shit though, share some of your answers lad
>>28652075
I can't remember the questions very clearly, if you tell me questions you had trouble with I'll answer them.
>>28652083
The one with where the answer was something +/- root something for example
>>28652144
Complete the square to get
-1+-root(5)
>Didn't go to school all year
>Doing the exams anyway
YOLO
>>28652177
Were you too sick for school or too S!CK for school?
>>28652156
If you don't know how to complete the square then you should honestly just drop the course
>>28652210
I don't know why you replied to me but you're a cunt.
>>28652245
Seriously senpai, it's GCSE
ax^2 + by + c = 0
a[(x + b/2)^2 - (b/2)^2 + c] = 0
then you proceed to find x. It looks complicated but it really isn't
>>28652203
More like too autistic for school.
I basically skipped the last like 3 months of last year as well, but the 5 month summer got me addicted to the NEET life.
>>28652294
Ok, thanks for explaining that to me even though I'm the one who got it right
>>28652156
>>28652156
Why did I try to use the quadratic formula ffs
>>28652313
Oh shit. I feel stupid.
Anyway, if one doesn't know how to complete the square then it's clear that they didn't revise
>>28652335
Did the question specifically tell you to complete the square? If not, then it's fine to use the formula.
>doing maths
Essay based subjects bro
>>28652335
You could still get that answer using the quadratic formula because you have to square root the discriminant, so you get a square root in the answer
>>28652351
It isn't fine when you end up with 5+/-root 20.
Can you recall the equation? I'm sure -2x Squared was part of it
>>28652368
This.
You just gotta convince the examiner you know what you're on about, even if you don't.
>>28652390
I didn't do AQA, but I know the that quadratic formula will give you the same answer as completing the square, every time. You must've made a mistake
>>28652410
Feels like I've had to wank off godzilla after every essay though kills my hand
>>28652410
Come off as arrogant in Philosophy, it works. For English Lit, just come up with the most dramatic, melancholy interpretation of whatever it is you're reading as you can.

I bet your even went to party's and enjoyed your teen years
I am lmoaing at your lifes
>>28652446
>the new English language spec
My teacher read out the old one and it sounded far fucking easier, OCR doesn't even know how the new one will go
>>28652489
Everything in the new spec is hard apparently
In our bio unit 4 mocks lots of people got As and Bs, but the year below almost everyone got Us, the highest mark was a C. It's fine though, you'll only need like 12UMS for an A.
>>28652520
Don't they adjust the boundaries if everyone fucks up?
>>28652484
>party
That's a weird name
>>28652544
Yeah, they want a set proportion of students each year to get certain grades so the UMS changes slightly each year. There will probably be a huge drop in grade boundaries for the new spec.
>tfw taking fucking WJEC Compiter Science
>worst teacher in the school
>he lies and says the course doesn't have a textbook even though it does
>gives us hundreds of random booklets, some covering too much or too little in various abouts of detail
>why didnt I just be a normie and pick ICT
>>28653183
>he lies and says the course doesn't have a textbook
Lmao why didn't you just search for it online? Surely somewhere you must have found out that's bullshit.
>>28653324
Its online but you have to be an institution to purchase and theres no free copies online
>>28653363
You should really report your teacher for that shit
>>28653377
Two people in my class reported him the first few weeks because he literally wasnt teaching. Then the next day he told the class about the two reports and acted like the reports were about "too much work" and gave us a speech about how this course had a lot of work. And everyone was like wtf. It's too late for me to report him anyway. We havent even finished the course and we're on study leave
I just want to kill myself anyway so I don't care anymore
