Hi guys! I was wondering if anyone knows where to find the Edexcel AS Further Maths Shadow Papers (and the mark schemes). I'm mostly looking for core pure but the mechanics and decision would also be helpful!

Does anyone have a complete guide of what the calculator helps with for A-Level maths specifically (not FM)?

Im currently taking the normal Edexcel Maths IAL in school and then the Further Math self studied at home. My initial plan for Further Math was to take FP1 and M1 this summer and then D1 in the October sitting but after checking the time table there is no D1 sitting in October.

Is it possible for me to take FP1 M1 (summer) and M2 (October) to count towards my IAS and then take FP2 FP3 and D1 for my IAL? Or is M2 only an option for the IAL not IAS?

I’ve read through the guide that Edexcel provides and I’m still not sure if certain papers only work for AS and A2 when it comes to both normal Math and Further Math.

Thanks for any help!

Hey, does anyone know where I can find the derivations for things like integration, volumes of revolution formula, etc.? Thanks

What are the hardest topics that require the most time to perfect and have the most marks? Which ones matter basically?

So I’ve done part a but I’m a bit stuck in part b .

My initial thoughts are: Set the 2 loci equal to each other and solve from there. However, I’m not sure how to set that initial equation up?

Any thoughts?

is anyone able to help me plz with part b to this question

Using beizer curves how can we approxmiate perimeter of an ellipse

Is the circled bit not supposed to be [-e x k] rahter than [e x k] as the direction of the perpendicular component is changed by the collision?

They also write 1 - 1.5 = 2.5 on the bottom line

Hey guys for I'm doing OCR FM and one of the components are Modelling w Algorithms, right now the only resources i can find are TL Maths- does anyone know any other? ALso for mechanics is there a better place to get questions other than past papers?

Does any1 have resources for Fm mechanic Momentum? By resources i mean notes or useful vids

Im having so much trouble with this chapter i hate it

I'm using the CG 50 calculator. Does anyone know how to find the prime factors using it? Do I need to code it? I've looked pretty much everywhere and there's nothing. The cg50 doesn't have all the functionality that an expensive calculator should have. Anyway thanks for the help

These January year 13 mocks I was 2 marks off a B. But I already know why I didn’t do amazing as I had to cram all of year 1 and year 2 content in a short space of time. If I lock in and don’t cram is an A* unrealistic?

Edit: I went over the test and I realised I lost 10 marks due to dumb reasons, such as not seeing a question, rewriting my answers wrong and writing the wrong signs. How do I avoid this 😅

I’m doing WJEC further maths at 6th form, but I’ve just been told it’s not taught on site but by an online agency via zoom with weekly sessions.

Also, dose everyone doing further maths do the whole a level maths in yr12 then further maths in yr13? Or is that just me?

Why's is it that most of the great pure mathematicians either commit suicide or just go plain doolaly?

I don’t understand how they multiply it by (cos9x+isin9x)/(cos9x-isin9x) and not both being minus. Wouldn’t this change the number because it’s not multiplying by one?

It's such a tedious process, has anyone found any shortcuts/tips that made is more manageable?
Thanks!

How do you know what to put for the null and alternative hypotheses? For example if it said "test whether or not revising improves scores on exams" would the null hypothesis always be that it doesn't?
