Exam tips
Iteration exam tip 1
Write the method before the answer so the examiner can follow each step. Apply this to [Higher only] Use suffix notation in recursive formulae where required..
This keeps the answer actionable and aligned to Iteration, rather than giving generic revision advice.
Algebraic modelling exam tip 1
Write the method before the answer so the examiner can follow each step. Apply this to [Foundation and Higher] Translate simple situations or procedures into algebraic expressions or formulae..
This keeps the answer actionable and aligned to Algebraic modelling, rather than giving generic revision advice.
Algebraic modelling exam tip 1
Write the method before the answer so the examiner can follow each step. Apply this to [Foundation and Higher] Derive equations, solve them and interpret the solutions in context..
This keeps the answer actionable and aligned to Algebraic modelling, rather than giving generic revision advice.
Algebraic modelling exam tip 1
Write the method before the answer so the examiner can follow each step. Apply this to [Higher only] Derive and solve two simultaneous equations from a contextual problem..
This keeps the answer actionable and aligned to Algebraic modelling, rather than giving generic revision advice.
Inequalities exam tip 1
Write the method before the answer so the examiner can follow each step. Apply this to [Foundation and Higher] Solve linear inequalities in one variable and represent solution sets on a number line..
This keeps the answer actionable and aligned to Inequalities, rather than giving generic revision advice.
