Maths paper 1 is tomorrow & I don't know what topics I should concentrate on! Any recommendations? I'm not the best with functions, are they really important? what should i study the most?
Thanks!

Does anyone have predictions as to what comes up? I got A D 42% in my mocks and am aiming for a C. I'm honestly terrible at this new project maths course..

Paper one (Project Maths) mostly consists of algebra, sets, applied arithmetic and functions. Do revise functions as they are important,

I think everyone does project maths? Maybe I'm wrong I don't know. Project maths is 100 times harder and not straight forward at all!

Project maths is the mandatory new syllabus. This is the first year all the new strands are being examined, I believe. I guess it was brought in so students would be able to see why the maths they use is relevant to real life situations.

I understand why we should know how to use maths in real life situations, but when in a real life situation will I need to know the function of a graph or if a pattern is quadratic or to prove a theorem? But I definately see the point on learning about interest in bank accounts and bills and all of that

From what my teacher told me when i did the JC and other people is that project maths is easier to pass but harder to get an A in.

Working in a hospital lab, the biochemistry analysers use the function of a graph to analyse blood samples. By creating a line with samples of known quantity, it is then able to mathematically work out the value for an unknown patient sample
