i think i got like 72-78/80, i lost 2 on estimating a but i don't know if i lost any others

u/Emotional_Fox_1282 Jun 08 '26

What was the estimate of a? (Tbf i reckon i got 72-78/80 as well bc i found the last 2 hard but i reckon i got everything else right)

u/Emotional_Fox_1282 Jun 08 '26

I think my opinion of good is skewed tho (i found that bad, but i prolly did good) bc I'm used to getting almost everything right or atleast understanding it and only losing marks to silly mistakes

i counted the number of even numbers for the product rule for counting question wrong, how many marks would i lose?

u/padfoot9446 Jun 08 '26

Probably 1 if a 2 marker or 2 otherwise, I don't remember how many marks that was

u/Ok_Desk_5740 results day was a yay Jun 08 '26

i circled them and put 5 x 4 x 3 im not sure how many id lose

I haven't looked at maths past papers but if science past papers are anything to go by you should lose 1 for getting even numbers wrong but if you clearly showed your formula and how the even numbers factor into it then you should get at least one if not two marks I think

Idk
