American Takes British GCSE Higher Maths!

Комедия

I heard the EdExcel Higher Maths GCSE is pretty tough stuff. Time to see if I can handle it and critique whether or not the UK's exams really ARE as rough as they say...

    1. I didn't know you could use a pencil! Had I known that I woulda just used pencil for the whole thing. 2. Who owns a ruler? Why do lines HAVE to be straight? :( 3. Hope you enjoyed this! It was an absolute beast to film and edit

    By the way, an 8 is very good and is an A* not an A. A 9 is an A** and very difficult to achieve. Congrats! EDIT: I get that there is no such thing as an A** but a 9 is described as an equivalent to it because the grade boundaries for the new 9 are a lot higher than the old A* but the boundaries for the new 8 are very similar to the old A*.

    If it's anything like NZ, it's a basic level of maths literacy that you're supposed to achieve before leaving school, so some kids are doing this sort of maths way earlier and doing the exam with their peers, and some kids are doing both the learning and the exam at a younger age. We call it NCEA Level 1 now, but we used call it School Certificate and have the exam the year you turn 16 which used to be the year it was legal to leave school.

    @impr0visati0n for a correct method you get marks. For example, stating and substituting the correct numbers into an equation would get you some marks, regardless of if the final answer is incorrect. So, you might mess up in rearranging a formula, but if the steps before that were correct you would, say, get 1/2 marks out of 4.

    Hi, sorry to break the news to you but I was a maths and physics examiner for this exam board for a number of years and your final score on this exam would have been 52, not 61. This equates to 65%, which in that year would have given you a grade 5 (possibly 6) which is equivalent to a grade 'C' (possibly B) on the paper for 16 year olds. You have given yourself a few marks here and there which would almost certainly not have been given (unless you had a VERY sympathetic Examiner). Your point about incorrect grammar was correct - I have fed this back to the Subject Officer for maths at Edexcel / Pearson. Points to note: 1) You should use a ruler for graphs (It does say you require one on the front of the paper) and your working is set out in a chaotic manner which makes it difficult to follow. 2) When it says 'show your working' you need to set out each step logically and in order, top to bottom, and not keep jumping around in the answer space. You need to DEMONSTRATE your working, not merely provide it for the Examiner to go looking for. 3) You should use 'x' for multiplication signs, not '.' (which can be misinterpreted as a decimal point). 4) Your numbers are unclear....you should take care that your numeric 4's cannot be mistaken for a 'Y' or the greek letter 'Gamma'. You should also note that your '6' looks like a 'b' and vice versa, and that on question 19 your 'x' looks like a 'y'. 5) You actually had 90 minutes for the paper but only used 60, making it difficult to predict what your final score would have been if you had used the full allocation of time. Based on this you would be borderline for acceptance on to an 'A' Level course (16 to 18 year olds) in most UK schools, and would probably need to rely on a good score on Paper 2

    Yeah this guy gave himself so many extra marks, realistically he got around 50 marks and this paper is probably the easiest GCSE maths paper I've seen. 100% on this paper would be pretty easy for any grade 8/9 GCSE maths student. It's surprising that they don't teach trigonometry at the corresponding level of education in America as well, as the concept of trigonometry is fairly straight forward. I guess this proves that the British education system is far better than the American one.

    Just because it's harder doesn't mean it's better. In 2024 only 22.9% of GCSE examinees passed with a grade 4 and up. That's fucking disgusting and pathetic from the British education system, and it needs some serious reform (39% of all students fail if you wanted to restrict the data to only student).

    now to do three of these along with 4 english exams (for which you need to become an amateur journalist, memorise by heart 15 poems, 3 books and the ability to analyse a new poem in detail in less than an hour), 2 exams for physics biology and chemistry, (you need to pass all these to move on in your life), four history exams (which you need to know the content for 4 topics in detail, half of which make you feel faint because it’s essentially uncensored gore), learn spanish (ya know, just like that), write two entire new essays in 1.5 hours for drama and spend 10 hours on an art piece in complete silence with now music or anything. now you might be thinking “oh that’s fine, i have 2 years to revise” WRONG. you need to spend that time creating a freaking wall full of artwork, writing a short play and writing 15 pages of waffle explaining what you did in drama class when you can scarcely remember anything because your brain is full to the brim with equations and poems and chapters of novels and detailed traumatic descriptions of the dangers of surgeries from 1300-1800, along with so much more. you need to know EVERYTHING, but only 10% of what you’ve forced into your brain actually appears on the exams. you had to give up your mental health, time with friends and family and the allusive “blissful experience” of being young to memorise stuff that NEVER MATTERED TO YOU. time, money, energy gone to BARELY scrape a good grade in subjects that you never were interested in. i realise that i’ve ranted but i hope people can see that gcses are hell. and it is almost non optional that you must do them. i am coming up to my exams now and every single day is a struggle to grasp on to my sanity while revising an endless list of topics. i now naturally stay awake until 3 am with stress, guilt and anxiety. and i know that my efforts in the long run amount to nothing as even if i got top grades i’d still be unlikely to find a job or a home. gcses take so much from you and leave you with nothing. i know that most of my friends are struggling to get through each day too. we are all depressed and anxious and i don’t know anyone in my friend group who hasn’t hurt themselves since the start of these awful two years. this is the effect of the british school system. i’m sorry for ranting and getting personal.

    Evan, I teach GCSE and A Level, and no offence intended at all, you are hilarious! And this is brilliant. 1. Your enthusiasm is brilliant. Maths is fun because it challenges us and god it’s satisfying when we get it right! 2. Everyone needs to remember how quickly maths skills can be lost, if you’re not doing them every day. Irrespective of him having a maths degree, because I guarantee much of the complex maths he did would not regularly use these concepts. ( I took 2 years off from uni to teaching and forgot about 6 years of maths in that time) 3. Coordinate geometry and circle theorems are some of the hardest concepts for students to learn, so I’m not surprised they messed with you! Well done, I can’t wait to watch your A Level paper…… if only to show my students 😂

    I took advanced GCSE maths over 20 years ago. Was "lucky enough" to be selected for the higher stream to take it a year early. I got a C. I can honestly say I have forgotten nearly everything I ever learnt in any of my maths classes, and it has not for one moment held me back either personally or professionally. What would have been more helpful in GCSE maths would be far more emphasis on finance, since I had to teach myself almost entirely from scratch. Great video.

    My school makes us do practise tests in an hour to make sure we get there on time without fail in the real ones. Despite the temporary hardships during the test (where I end up missing the last question frustratingly because of the limited time), I think its a good process. I have done 4 so far with my lowest being 62 and the highest being 70. I really want a 75 plus in my mocks next week so good luck to me. Shouldn't be too hard considering we have an hour and a half instead of the 1 hour I'm used to. I feel kinda proud of myself now seeing Evan scream at the test lol

    From a Brit: - The reason you have to write in black ink (except for diagrams), is because preliminary, the papers are read by a machine, and Black ink shows up the best - The EdExcel exam board is often considered to be the easiest so.. try an AQA or OCR paper - I'm not sure about EdExcel, but on the exam board i had, there was 3 papers (one Non-Calc, and 2 Calc Papers) -For exams, you are supposed to have a ruler, set squares, and a protractor, as well as a calculator for a Calc Paper -One minute per mark is a general rule for all subjects to help you stay on time (so for a 3 mark question you would allot 3 minutes ect.) - You saying 'points' is getting on my nerves- we call them 'marks' here

    I don't understand why they make kids take such a ridiculous number of GCSEs. You actually only typically need 5 GCSEs from A-C (or whatever the equivalent is with the new system) including Maths and English for most purposes in life. I know someone that went to Oxford and now has a PhD with only 5 GCSEs. Once you're past higher education or training, literally no one cares. The entirety of your GCSEs will be summed into a brief line on your CV (if that) and nobody will bother checking. I'd say to anyone doing GCSEs now, focus on the core subjects and what you enjoy.

    I'm taught to leave it in terms of pi on non calc and or give the exact calc answer to whatever degree of accuracy the question says. Idk what you are talking about with using pi = 3.14 thats not something people really do (unless for non calc on some ultra specific question).

    still, i did all of this in September, got a 7 and I legit think i would get a 4 or 5 now because it's all just outta my mind. All you really need when you stop doing maths is like pythagoras, trigonometry, logarithms and all of the basic shit so the overwhelming majority just forget it all, so yeah

    I guess in the US you don't work with decimals in probability? 1.0 = 1/1 = 100% 0.2 = 1/5 = 20% Meaning the chance of red or blue= 0.8 So divide that by the total of the ratio to get 0.04, and multiply by 3 for red counters. 0.12, or 12%, or yes 3/25 if you have ten extra minutes 😅

    The question at 13:00 You can add up the ratios then do 72/the added ratios which is 12 so 72/12 = 6 then multiply all the ratios by 6
