Good luck everyone doing Further Maths tomorrow!

Hopefully we will not have to work out anything too difficult, like a stupid 3 median line -_-

Well it's not really a concern for exam 1...as usually you only have to find the gradient. However, drawing one for exam 2 is tricky, as pulling the graph up or down 1/3 of the way is tricky and pretty much guess work.

I predict that we will get questions on:

-three median line
-calculating least squares regression
-seasonal indices
- 68-97-99.9% rule

As for the other modules i'm not sure.. but by looking at the trend from previous exams they tend to test the same concepts over and over.

I want 40/40

Good luck everyone !

Fairly sure you keep the booklet of questions, most people mark their answers in their booklet to check them later. Not sure if I want to do that :S

Good luck everyone!

I don't think I'll keep the booklet - it will just stress me out too much.

Btw good luck all.
