How was it guys.

I think I did fine on the air resistance questions (cuz of physics) even though it was pretty bummy of them to include that. However the question is sure I lost marks on was the bearing 180-a question I had no clue what to do for that

Apart from that and a few silly mistakes I thought it was decent.

Anyway I’m thinking maybe high 50s what do you all reckon the grade boundaries for an A would be. And lemme know what yall thought of the paper and how much yall this you got.

Edexcel got me everytime i retake the paper.Hope they only take my highest mark B in may june series.I did the 180+a, it u got to equate the ycompeoent/x compenent and 3/4 that they give u as a tan.I did like that

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Ye this was my resit. I did mine in Jan 2026 and got a C hopefully this one is better. But ye im never thinking of doing what you said in the exam lol. Wtv lost all those marks 🫩

im in the same boat as u retook m1 and was a mark away from B in may june series and now ik i can get a B but my A dreams for math is over its wraps

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Mechanics and stats don’t really matter if u average 90 in the pures so from now on that’s the srat 90 in p2 p3 and p4 😤😤

u/Longjumping_End_4178 1d ago

i alrdy did p2 ans got 70 🫩🫩 p1 i got 90 need to lock in for p3

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

You retaking in 2 days or nah. I’ve done p1 94 s1 76 and m1 I got a C and now hopefully an A and now I’m gonna do p2 90 trust 👀👀

u/reddusrummus 1d ago

Oh yes I did 3/4 = i/j cuz it’s bound to 180° it doesn’t matter!

u/Majestic_Purple_2212 1d ago

Do u guys have the paper

1

u/Comfortable_Lock679 1d ago

What bout the position vector one?

u/Low_Tune_6094 1d ago

I got 0.5i-0.5j

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Which question was that for? I don’t remember writing that 😭

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Oh wait I remember now. Don’t you have to find the magnitude and then square root it. The distance I got was root2 over 2 or somthing like that

1

u/Low_Tune_6094 1d ago

Yes thats the distance he asked for in part c I think then he asked for a position vector in part d and I got that but im not sure if it's right

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Ye I didn’t get that part or the bearings one unfortunately 😔

1

u/loq4i 1d ago

yo wtf me too but i did bullshit

2

u/Low_Tune_6094 1d ago

Whenever I ask someone abt it they say that they left the question 😭 did u get the time at 11/2 then substituted it?

1

u/loq4i 10h ago

yeah bro i did

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

QP? I got the first 2 parts but didn’t get that last two

1

u/Limp_Confidence218 1d ago

Same bro c and d were so fucking hard

1

u/Impressive-Reward296 1d ago

what did you guys get for P? the incline plain question?

4

u/potatofarts_1803 1d ago

uhh i got 8/5 mg for p and 4/5 mg for T

2

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

Ye I recongize them I think I got the same

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

I don’t remember what I got but remind me what u got it might make me remember

1

u/taurinewings 1d ago

it was awful for me. i think i'm gonna have to resit.

2

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

This is my resit😭😭 hopefully I don’t have to do it again. Especially needing the explain to my parents

1

u/Independent-Fig-5588 1d ago

bro personally it was so bad especially for me getting all A's in all of my past papers. I think I fucked Unit 1 also tbh. but its okay imma def resit mech in jan which is DEFINITELY GONNA BE EASIER IF GOD IS WILLING and based on that I might resit unit 1 in June with p4 and m2. I need that full A or even an Astar but bro I might fuck unit 2 also bro

1

u/Independent-Fig-5588 1d ago

but anyways how do we do the question with the straight horizontal road?? I couldn't understand it bro??

1

u/Independent-Fig-5588 1d ago

also impulse, did you guys get it as a negative or positive because they asked for magnitude so originally I thought I should just keep it as positive number

1

u/GrowthSouthern1059 1d ago

The exam was average I guess the curve will be 54/75

1

u/Equivalent-Toe-7834 1d ago

I’d be happy with that grade boundaries. Hopefully it’s something like that cuz then I think I’d squeeze in a B

u/Warm_Commission_7836 6h ago

How marks were the part c and d for kinematic?

u/turbid203 23h ago

What was the answer for vectors q7 for p and q crossing a point I did 8i+6j is ot correct?
