Anyone taking this exam?
Or have any ideas whats going to be on it.
-
Hi eveyone. I think now is 24 hours over.
How was your Accounting Paper 2? Hard or easy?
What is the minimum marks to score an A for this paper 2?
Please give suggestion and why you said so.
Personally it was hard to me.
-
Fa10 seems 2 me lead, sum1 told Barm, hows tht possible?
-
it was lead..barium has no reactions with hcl..
-
ey this paper kicked butt..i think i aced it...
8) :D ;) :) ;D 8) :) :P
-
I got lead Copper and Manganese ???
-
lead copper mg...how come 3 :S the 1st part which was adding HCL proved it was lead!no other element gives a ppt with HCL
-
the batch in which i ws...nly 2 studnt got Pb2+
we all got no ppt with HCL...so we got Al3+ presnt
so which is the true ans???
-
I did Paper 31
-
this is for which paper??? for paper 33 the Pb2+ should be in FA9.... :)
-
hey guyz i need help anyone knowing whats comming in the practical... 3rd nov
-
no1 knowz or the ppl who know arent willing to tell ;D
-
no cheating mates!
-
hi....my paper went well....i was repeating so it was easier compared to may/june 2009....m expecting A to be arnd 64-66...my expected grade is high B
-
was it FA9 or FA10??
-
it's easy don't worry
-
hey any1 givin chemistry p5 2mrrw??
reply asap..
-
no 1??
-
I think Mani is.. but he's gone now..
-
my bad !!
-
anyone got somethin on p5?
-
wait a minute, are u all talkin bout CIE chem p5?
-
yeah the A2 p5..(advance level p5)..
which one r u talkin abt?
-
neh, same thing.m having it in 6hrs time
-
best of luck.. im havin it in at 1pm 2mrrow..
-
hello..do any of u knw where 2 get chem unit 5 paper old syllabus..
-
hey guys, there will be 3 questions coming out. God Bless America
-
done with p5? any1
how was it??
-
how was the ppr..every1.. ??
-
The paper was sh*t..Potasium PersulFate????????? wtf is that!!!!and together with thiosulFate..i coud not even really understand the question 1..qu 2 was ok but then had to rush on a few things..overall it totally suck but cant too complain practical was fun and now am gonna fuckin diee...........
-
64-66 is very high alot of peopel had bad papers or jsut average.... i guess its gonna be somewhere around 60-61 or even a little below it...
-
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? ???
-
Hw was ur paper1?...minewent awesome...now i cn say overall ill get an A InshAllah=D
-
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
-
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!
-
You are allowed to discuss the paper after 24 hours of its time.
So yes..definitely u can after 2 days.
-
Any idea where i could get notes on communicating information cie physics??? :(
-
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..
-
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.
-
Hey guys....just out of curiosity...how did you guyz find chem paper 2 and 3? Physics paper 3? Bio Paper 3? IT paper 1 and 2? Maths paper 1&6? and any other papers you guys want to discuss...??
-
i'm only doing math and physics atm..
physics paper 3 was good, i think.
math paper 1 was kinda crappy for me, but paper 6 was awesome.
how 'bout you?
-
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 :)
-
chem p2 - i have no idea what I wrote in the exam, I came out and I was like "What just happened?!"
chem p3 - Excellent
Bio p3 - sh*t
Phy p3 - meh. It was alright, I guess. (if there's ecf..)
-
I loved paper 3 physics...it was great
paper 3 chem i didnt finish on time... it kicked my mood out of me
paper 2 chem i kept swearing the name of marie curie for her F******g discovery of radium (it's the same paper right?)
paper 1 maths was good.just lost marks on vectors
paper 6 was ok, did silly costly mistakes
how u found it?
-
well i thought evrything was ok..until i came out of the exam room and ppl started discussing the papers...which really ruined my mood...
phys ppr 3...it was ok..i made silly mistakes..so i hope there's error carried forward..and my k wasn't constant...
chem ppr 3...when i was doing the prac i thot it was fyn...but i came out..nd i kno i made a lot of mistakes esp with my graph....for the last part about adding silver nitrate and to the ppt adding ammonia...did any1 get a ppt??
chem ppr 2 was ok...but organic killed me!! and i made a mistake with the energetics graph...did u guys draw it with 1 hump or 2 humps??
bio ppr 3 was ok...if guys did paper 31...what out of A1, A2, and A3 was stained??
Both maths papers were fine..but i made silly mistakes in stats..which suks...
-
chem p2 for chemical energetics, sme1 told me that it was supposed to b 2humps n i did only 1.
looks lik u did ok overall :)
-
I've only done Bio Paper 3 and Physics Paper 3.
Bio paper 3 was... :( I don't know, I didn't follow the safety procedure for the lab, I think they'll deduct some points out of it. For question 1, the fourth solution (S4) contains the most starch, the first has no starch at all (S1), but S2 and S3 were interchangeable, I was confounded. (The S1 through S4 is the same for each school, right?)
For question number 2, I measured the WIDTH of the guard cell instead of the LENGTH.
Question 3 was just okay.
Physics paper 3 was also quite a failure for me. Question 1 was good.
Question 2 was awful. The threshold weight kept changing. I repeated about 10 times and it kept changing DRASTICALLY! From 260 grams, to over 500 grams. The feeling of desperation all come back to me just as I talk about it. :-\
(By the way, I got all 'U's for all paper 3, I'm currently retaking them. I'm hoping to get at least 'E' this time around. Maybe I'm just retarded in the field of Paper 3)

aw, i'm sorry D:
i thought you only got Us if you didn't sit the exam, though? as in, ungraded? :-\
and if it makes you feel any better, i wasn't sure about the weight either..
oh By the way, did your results support the theory thing? the last question, i mean. in physics paper 3. anyone?
-
maths paper 1 and 6 was ok.. though the first question of paper six made me kinda panic.. and yeah i definitely got that wrong..
for the practicals, i'm most satisfied with chem, then physics and then bio.. my first question for physics, gah i didn't have enough time to "alter" the values and draw a nice best fit line.. so yeah that kinda sucks especially since i had to do question 2 first and sat there idle for like 20 minutes :-\ bio pracs was horrible.. my 'slide' was really shiteous and i couldnt really see anything or rather don't know what to see.. so yeah i crapped out my observation :)
chem 2 was the worst of all.. and somehow i THINK that i can do variant 1 better than variant 2.
how many ppl think that its damn hard? hopefully the threshold will be lowered.
-
http://www.brain.net.pk/~hivicky/cie/a-level/physics/9702_y07_asb.pdf
that has everything you'll need to know... :D
my school printed the whole thing for us...
-
Ya stat is harder this time
I think the mean is 51
Is it correct?

i'm with you...variant 2 was really horrible....but u kno actually dey never change d difficulty in 2 variants of the same paper only questions basically...but still i wantd to do variant 1...damn we shud hav had an option....this sux.. X[
-
Well, for me let's start off with Thinking Skills :
Paper 1 : Some were easy, some were hard. I hate the critical thinking part. I preferred problem solving.
Paper 2 : Once again, I did not have enough time to write my last 3 sentences!
Mathematics :
Paper 1 : I guess it was more of a breeze compared to P6.
Paper 6 : I made a careless mistake like everyone else on the SD of the first question. And my 1,3,5 and 6 arrangement. (Was too confident about it the day before till I neglected it for Economics ~_~)
Economics :
Paper 1 : (Not done)
Paper 2 : I just had 10 seconds left when I was done! I hope I did great. I didn't like the choice of essay questions. I picked the one with the lighthouse and light bulb. That was the easiest there ~_~
Physics :
Paper 1 : (Not done)
Paper 2 : (Not done)
Paper 3 : I think I had one limitation wrong ~_~ I hate it when they ask for limitations! D: But my values for k had only a 4% percentage difference! So I guess it was okay overall.
How about everyone else? :)
-
wtf.
you prolly did chem p2 variant 1. (21)
um yea i think it's variant 1.
any one dng A2 physics soon?
-
Thank You
any1 ready 4 A2 physics???
-
I think I did the Chem P2 variant 2. I liked the organic chem + kinetic theory in it but not so much the oxidation numbers part, though I was lucky to have remembered the exception for metal hydrides.
Does anyone know the correct answer for the permutations Q in maths P6? It was the one that asked for for the different 3 digit and 4 digit numbers able to be produced from the numbers 1,3,5,6 and the digits formed had to be >500 as well as being odd numbers. So far I've heard varying answers
thanks
-
Well for that permutation question i got 18 ways but I'm not sure if that is the right answer. Yeah I've also heard varying answers, i think the correct answer might be 28 but i'm not 100% sure. And for the chemistry paper 2, the question asked for a common carbon compound that had a similar structure to SiC, was it by any chance diamond?

I got 20something..
I actually wrote down all the 3 digit numbers >500 and counted the odd ones, then i multiplied 3/4 by the total value of permutations i got in the first part and added them up.
-
FREAKIN HARD!!!! it was a DISASTER 4 me!!!! :-[ :'( :'( :'(
-
FREAKIN HARD!!!! it was a DISASTER 4 me!!!! :-[ :'( :'( :'(
im writing my paper in 3hrs...this is not what i wanted to read.. :(
-
Ya stat is harder this time
I think the mean is 51
Is it correct?
yup
bt i definitely got the SD wrong
cos i used the SD formula instead of normal distribution which i think is right.. TT
-
Even me got mine in 5 hours...but thing should be able to do it as its not as chem :D
-
:o uh oh... this is FREAKING me OUT!!! wat variant was it?
-
i have my ppr in 3hrs... is it tht hard?? :(
-
lol sorry to scare u guys... it was hard 4 ME but u guys are prob way beta than me lol dnt fret
-
well what if we are worst than you then :( lol.....
-
:(
-
My friend don't worry afterall its just a p4 which has A2 in it..so just revise the following :
Circular motion
Gravitational field
Ideal gas & temperature
SHM
magnetic field
Electric field
Electromagnetism and application and yah i forgot application ( neva learned that before and exams is in 2 hours XD )
p.S i know am crazy but i won't cheat :)
-
um yea i think it's variant 1.
any one dng A2 physics soon?
Well if variant 1 peeps did as bad as variant 2 ones, we can expect the threshold to be a little low. :)
Nah, I'm just giving AS Bio, Chem, Phy this oct/nov. A2 in May/June.
-
kavish did u give the exam?
-
pper wasnt that tough... but still i think i'll score a 50 outta hundred :P
-
i also get 51 for mean.
Quite hard this stat paper
-
so how did you guys find physics paper 4??? ???
mine was very BAD!!!!!!!!!
-

I got 28.. ;)
-
mine was between okay n good...few questions were horrible.... >:(
-
what score are u guys expecting ?
-
oh god!!!!!!!
physics ppr 4
:( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
it ws realy tough...
am nt xpcting gud marks in tht...
i evn strtd 2 4got things i learnt wen i reached half the ppr
-
yuck!!!!! tht paper squeezed tears frm my eyes wen i was doing it...
i dnt know if i can even get above pass mark...
wat was CIE thinkin????
nov 2008 was piece of cake compared to this
any chance d grade threshold changes?
-
paper was relatively easy wish i revise could have got a better results but anyways can get above 60 i think :D

Just so you know, the correct answer is 28. The way to calculate is as follows :
a) 3-digit cases
i) Beginning with 5,
5 _ _ --> The last blank will let you have 2 possibilities (1 and 3) and after putting 1 number the 2nd blank will have 2 possibilities (1 and 6 or 3 and 6 depending on your last digit) = 2 x 2 = 4
ii) Beginning with 6,
6 _ _ --> Last blank 3 possibilities (1,3 or 5) and after 1 number, 2nd blank will have 2 possibilities as 2 numbers left = 2 x 3 = 6
b) 4-digit case
_ _ _ _ --> The last blank must be an odd number (1,3 or 5), the other blanks can be arranged by any order = 3! x 3 (for the last blank) = 18
Total = 4 + 6 + 18 = 28
There's your answer! I forgot to consider odd digits for the 4-digit case ~_~ Careless me.

i just did P (X<63) = 0.75 and found the standard deviation using the z thingie and the normal distribution table..

High five! Haha.. xD
-
High five! Haha.. xD
^_____^
-
what variants did u guys take ? 42 was relatively easy... but still im not expecting more than 50 outta hundred... cuz my major problem is time management !! and SECTION B as usual, wasnt good for me at all :(
-
i dont know wat variant i did... started with gravitation, then ideal gas stuff....
Kavish...u did better than me...
-
i think its variant one as its 41 that Reechna and me took...
Reechna u too u worked well trust me...u know that everytime am almost ryt and on that i can garantee u worked.
-
Well physics p31 was awesome
physics p41 was good ( can get more than 55-60)
chemistry p2 and p5 was good
chemistry p31 didn't had time to finish the paper =(
maths p1 and p3 and s1 was oki
only in p6 i didn't work well can get at most half :'(
tomorrow got chem p41
and yah am doing variant 1
-
wel im doin variant 1 for evrything....i can't remembr my answers for the permutations bit...
i just hope the thresholds for chem is like really low so that i can @least get a B... like the may/june 2009 chem papr 2...a B was 50-something percent....
i have bio ppr1 this afternoon....hope it goes well...
and 4 the enegetics part in chem ppr2 variant 1...u're supposed to show 2 "humps" and the intermediate....which was the CH3 radical...so yeah... that really sukd.. :'(
hopefully everything else will be fine....
-
Good luck today! ^__^

Wow bio p1 was so retarded. WTF man. I just guessed everything. Tricky one. . . :(
-
Wow bio p1 was so retarded. WTF man. I just guessed everything. Tricky one. . . :(
there were quite a few of past years questions in it.. and a few questions are quite ambiguous :-\
-
Wow bio p1 was so retarded. WTF man. I just guessed everything. Tricky one. . . :(
aw, really?! my friend said it was awesome D:
-
mne started with gravitation then ideal gas then capictance/electric field.. so i think we all took the smae variant ?
-
think so :)
-
Wow bio p1 was so retarded. WTF man. I just guessed everything. Tricky one. . . :(
Lucky me, bio-less :D
-
Lucky me, bio-less :D
hah, me too ;D
i'm resitting it in may/june though..
-
hah, me too ;D
i'm resitting it in may/june though..
Resiting for Bio?
-
Resiting for Bio?
yeah. got a C. :-[
-
yeah. got a C. :-[
Aww man :( But I never encourage any of my friends to resit, it's a waste of time, money and if you resit during A2, you would have to jam up everything from AS and A2. That's crazy! And then from there, supposedly you're able to get an A for A2, you get a B due to lack of concentration for it then for the resit you get a B too due to double-tasking on the subject :(

DDDDDD:
i'm not doing A2 bio though..
see, my original plan was to do four A levels- math, biology, chemistry and physics.
but my grades kinda sucked so i'm resiting them all, and only doing A2 physics and math. :-\
-
Wow.. You are lucky D:
I am doing 4 AS (Math, Physics, Thinking Skills, Economics) and 4 A2 (Math, Further Math, Physics, Economics) :(

how on earth am i lucky?! XD
i thought thinking skills doesn't count when applying to most unis?

bio was ok...quite tricky... currently im doing 5 subjects-i kno crazee...maths, AICT, bio, chem and phys...bt 4 A2 im droppin bio...i cnt stand the pressure...jst too much work...so when do u guys officially end exams??

mine ends nxt friday :-[
-
by the way...how's ICT exams??
difficult
really really difficult
or easy??
-
mne started with gravitation then ideal gas then capictance/electric field.. so i think we all took the smae variant ?
yea same variant.... variant 1
-
ICT is a breeze.
Mine finish on the 20th.
-
yea i finish on the 20th aswell.... damn chem..lol.. i just cant wait for that day honestly...so xcited :P ICT is quite easy...nothing like IG's...there's a lot of reading...and questions r worth usually 6 marks 8 marks...if u're lucky u can get questions worth abwt 2 marks...thats the lowest...there's a lot of writing.. so u'r hand usually hurts aftr the xam..lol..i kno mine does.. :P
-
Yeah i also finish on the 20th... :'(, but atleast its not too far away. So far my exams have gone alright, exceptions are my Biology and Chemistry practicals. Anyone who did the Biology Paper 1, how did you guys find it, there were some tricky questions in it eh..? I don't know if we are allowed to discuss the paper yet, but if we are what did you guys get for the last question, it took me ages to do it...
-
Are those who have taken the exams allowed to talk about the exams with others who have too via e-mail or PM or something? I have an urge to discuss it! :-X :-X :-X
-
yeah bio was tricky...wat was the last question?? i dnt evn remembr wat it was ...lol
-
Are those who have taken the exams allowed to talk about the exams with others who have too via e-mail or PM or something? I have an urge to discuss it! :-X :-X :-X
I dont see why not
-
Mine finish on 13th
Physics paper 1
i cant wait!!! ;D ;D ;D
not taking chem now doin it in 2010 may
-
The last question was about the Plant discs placed inside bags thing, a really random question, it took so much of my time... >:(
-
Mine finish on 13th
Physics paper 1
i cant wait!!! ;D ;D ;D

What about paper 2? o.O
-
i have paper 1 3 and 6 only in physics
-
i have paper 1 3 and 6 only in physics
IGCSE? :-\
-
yea
dint realise it was the a level forum
just clicked a link on FEP

Lol yeah, thats what i thought. :p
Good luck anyway!
-
Yeah you can discuss via PM, no problem.
You can post as well, its allowed right now. lol.
Bio paper 1 was lawl. Really tricky, plus my brain just wouldn't agree on an option. :(
Last one, I wrote micro-organisms and something. Don't remember the options..

It was confusing. For one thing, I didn't know how small an invertebrate can be. I answered "Small invertebrate only", by the way. I thought microorganisms are supposed to be about 5 or 10 micrometers and would affect the discs with very small-holed nets.
I didn't finish on time! I didn't get to think through question number 24 or 26 about DNA replication (the one with the huge figures taking up the whole page) and I think I shaded the wrong answer...
-
Oh right i answered A for the last question because i thought that if it were micro-organisms then the last column would have been affected to, but all the leaves remained 100%... So i was tossing up between the invertebrates and the earthworms and beetles option :-\.
-
How was accounting AS paper 2? i think i got an ungraded ~_~. Paper 1 wasnt so hard though. Maths was easy overall(paper 1 and 6). Chemistry was okay~. Kinda worried about physics =/
-
It was also a toss up for me, but I think that if it were beetles and earthworms, they wouldn't be able the affect the second column. I was extremely indecisive: rubbing out answers multiple times and shading them over about 20 times.
I just pray my grade's up to expectation.

Hey nightfaller11,
accounting was hard to me too. I took the Varient 2 . What was your 1St or 2nd varient?

Sorry, it is nightflare11

hey guys!! :)
sooooo thats all the smiling im gona giv...cuz...hw was physics paper 1 4 u?? omg was it loooooooooooong or was it just me?? i barely had tym 2 go over my answers...so i hope most of my answers r right..
speaking of which...what did u guys get 4 the 2nd last question?? the one wer they gav us 3 diagrams and and 3 lines...the alpha, beta and gamma...nd which set is all the same type...was it C or D?? i hope u guys understood my quest... lol
-
how did u guys work on the whole? any chance that the grade threshold drops and in wat papers? :-\

You shouldn't discuss the papers until it is exactly 24 hours after your paper... But to answer you, it's the one that has to do with beta radiation. So shush. Haha.

EXAM DISCUSSION HERE ONLY
-
Please do not make new threads regarding paper discussion.
All IGCSE october/november 2009 papers can be discussed here.
This is a final warning to all students appearing for their exams.
Cheating or illegally helping other students is NOT allowed.
Such activities shall not be entertained at this forum. Any topics created for this purpose will be deleted immediately. Consequently, any member repeatedly found to be doing this shall be banned.
Also, due to differences in GMT, examination timings will be different in countries around the world. In order to ensure no malpractice occurs, discussion of examination papers shall not be allowed until 24 hours AFTER the paper is over.

Please do not make new threads regarding paper discussion.
All IGCSE october/november 2009 papers can be discussed here.
but sometimes we start a thread for questions and stuff before the exam and just discuss the exam when it's over in the same thread.
why is that not allowed? :/
as for the poll, what subject is it referring to? D:

I didn't get to finish Physics paper 1!!!!! >:( >:( >:(
I left 4 answers blank!
Damn it! Why am I such a slow thinker in the field of physics and math!!!

IGCSE?
WHAT?
Dude. lol.
Merging the topics is just, well, lame.
We can have 2 different papers (diff. subjects / diff. grade as/a2) on the same day.
Some students like to predict what can come and discuss questions on certain past papers, etc. WHY isn't that allowed? No attempt on cheating has been made on the discussion board yet; so :S ??? >:(
Anyway, just my opinion.

alright ::)

The answer is definitely C. First case is that beta particles cannot pass through aluminium, 2nd is that in an electric field beta particles deviate more as they have the lowest mass (newtons law). Third is in a magnetic field electrons (beta particles) would deflect at an angle more than right angle. So it's definitely C. Need not check the past year papers. It isn't a repeating question.

I don't know which answer is this but the answer was the one that started with "M"
What did you guys get for the Diffraction Maxima (I got D which was 15) and the Oil suspended one?
-
Yeah i think the answer for that beta, alpha, gamma question was C. I can't remember that diffraction question, and for the oil droplet i can't remember what i put :D. If you explain that diffraction question a bit more i might be able to remember ;).

i am soooooo freaking out. my paper one went soooo bad......... i must have left 7-8 due to time... and out of what ive done... seems like i got sooo many wrong... like i chose n=7 .... and i think i got the charge one wrong as well... and i dont know :( do u guys think the thresholds will be low ... i hope i pass this... atleast an E on this paper ? my paper 4 went well .. and p1 didnt go well.. :P
-
dw..InshAllah this ppr will b easier then the other two... :)
-
i hope that 2morrow p2 bio is easy :-\
-
hmmm..i think it has been more than 24 hours since our last P2 bio exam.
we can discuss right?? ???
-
Yeah i think it has been 24 hours. Anyway on the other thread the discussion has already begun :P. But for Biology you can't really discuss too much about the questions because they are all explanation questions...

plss guys i want to ask something
I sat for math As last november and i want to repeat it and take along with it math A2 i.e. I want to take the whole A level subject math this june
what should I write in the registration form
and what does linear math mean????
plsssss reply as soon as possible

HOLY ****! I went to school this morning unprepared to know the results of my Bio and Physics (I didn't know they're out today!), and I was both shocked (in a good way) and dismayed of the results!
Anyone else have gotten their scores yet?
-
Did anyone sit for the physics unit 4 (edexcel new syllabus)? Wasn't it really hard??????
Please tell me how did you do??
-
:(
Did anyone do this one?
how was the paper?

plz help!!!!!!
K2Cr2O7 and KMnO4 are bpth strong oxidising agents.which one is not used for the quantitative estimation of Fe2+ ions in iron(II)chloride? why?
equimolar solutions of acidified potassium manganate(VI),manganese(II)sulphate, potassium dichromate(VI) and chromium(III)sulphate are mixed and allowed to reach equilibrium.
which ion is oxidised and which one is reduced?
construct an eqn for the overall rxn.
THXS 4 HELPING
