Hi Mr Bicen, once we have finished the edexcel maths papers online, what papers would you recommend doing, that are relatively similar/ harder than the edexcel papers

@BicenMaths

3 күн бұрын

If you want harder, I'd suggest Madas. If you want particular topics at similar difficulty, look at IAL P3 or P4 - but they're not a perfect match up, so you'll need to select particular questions.

does the topic past papers document for pure (maths) and core pure, optional modules (further maths) include specimen and sample? It says SAMs but does it include both sample and specimen?

@BritishYoutube

Ай бұрын

I know you were asking Sir, but honestly the graphics calculator is so useful for visualising graphs, saving you time plotting them and picking up small marks here and there, that you may forget on the day like sketching graphs for example. However, I do still think you should learn then but I found it very useful. I also found checking answers, like for example the trig functions and such very useful especially if you are trying to get that A*, small mistakes on the day could hinder you, where I think the graphical calculator could help. However, the ClassWizz FX-991EX does still have some ways to check your answers like for example differentiating with limits or integrating with limits for example and comparing your answers.

Writing extra lines of working can be helpful. I'd also recommend reattempting a question if something is incorrect, as it's usually easier to spot your mistake when comparing two sets of working, instead of just looking for the mistake by itself.
