L4 Set 1 - Exam Revision.

Summer 2002

 

 

 

·        Organise your revision so that you know what topic you are going to revise when you sit down to it.

 

·        Concentrate (spend more time) on the areas you find difficult,

 

·        Remember maths is about understanding and applying  if you think clearly and logically most things can be worked out, but be organised in the way you set out your work,

 

·        Effective maths revision includes learning facts, use your notebooks - then practising many questions until you can confidently answer any (even new) question on the topic

 

·        Remember to bring all the equipment you need to the exam: sharp pencil, pen, rubber, ruler, compass, protractor, calculator (for section B), brain.

 

 

The exam will consist of two sections: Section A (1 hour) is common to both set 1 and set 2 and is a non-calculator paper; section B (30 min) is for set 1 only and a calculator may be used  make sure you bring one!

 

The exam will include all the work covered this year:
