Not as bulky as chem but still... the topics are kinda 'brain-teasing'.
Who's ready for it? and what do you think we should know most? ???

I have a friend who was the only one who got A in our entire college and yet, she scored 95. What an alien ~_~. The 2nd highest was like 68? Look at the gap LOL

« Reply #34 on: November 06, 2009, 01:55:30 am »
hi all

are we allowed to discuss the paper now after 2 days? do any of you know when the answers will be posted?
did you find this harder than the pure and how are the papers weighted? is it just pure 60%, stats 40%?

thanks!

those are the weightings
nd i found stats harder than pure especially that first qustion on mean and SD
i think i got it wrong cos some friends said that they used the bell curve for norm dist which i think is correct..
I swear exams are going to be the end of me someday

Are you sure that is the weightings for maths? I thought it was 50/50 for pure and stats. Anyway yeah i think for that first question in order to find the s.d you have to use a normal distribution curve, because they tell you the LQ value and we know that anything lower than LQ has the probability of 25% so you can draw and diagram to represent this and then you should be able to figure it out using normal distribution.

hmm, how would you use the bell curve?
i just did P (X<63) = 0.75  and found the standard deviation using the z thingie and the normal distribution table..
oh and you estimate the median to be the mean, right?

anyway, it was hard, but i think it went pretty well  :)
