"Statistic coursework"

At the moment I am doing my second and last piec of coursework in Maths, and lo and behold it is the statistics piece.
The practise coursework was about cars and was really boring... *falls asleep* wah.. oh sorry I wasn't meant to fall asleep like that but the effects have still not washed off.

Now the real one is about school children from a fictional school, but usually the information is from a real school, and I have some idea where it was since they have trams in their city (Birmingham?).

After doing my first hypothesis following a guideline of questions to answer I realised it's not that hard after all, I still have to complete 2 more hypothesis' for friday but i am halfway through number 2 right now, and I have have 3 lessons of Maths during the week.

I suppose mst of you have done the statistics one already since you did in year 10, but I did the Sequences/Algebra one last year and was very enthusiastic about doing it, I hope I got an A for it, bt i won' find out since the teacher is deliberatly hiding the marks from us.

I just missed the re-submission date for my module 2 coursework today! I've had 2 A* (exams) and a B (coursework), the stupod B is dragging my grade down towards an A, dagnab it! Last minute revision pays off way better than any other types.

I don't really think i'll try to do Maths at Uni, I'll probably try to do a computing course and get a degree in it.

I suppose there are jobs in this day and age that require more than just amateur computer skills. Nearly every job needs you to know how to do some basic computer skills.

I got an A (74%) for my Statistics coursework at UNI. Quite surprising becasue i only spent a couple of hours doing it the night before it was due in! I was expecting a C grade tops! Ended up with the top grade! must have been a mix up somewhere i reckon!

I know that my first piece of coursework is worth a B on it's own if I didn't hand in my stats one.
Quite good for me.

I did my first piece of maths of coursework 3 weeks ago ( the fencing problem) and got 22/24
damn i was annoyed one more mark and i would have gotten an A*

Sounds great! I'm taking Maths, Furthur Maths, Physics, and Electronics or History (depending mainly on mock exam results)

As it happens, we got the chance to do Statistics GCSE Courswork twice - once both for the Maths and Stats GCSEs, and then we could redo it if we wanted to for the Maths.

First time: Spent about 3000 hours on the stupid thing, got 6,7,8
Second time: Spent about 2 hours on it, mostly the night and bus journey before it was due in, got full marks

Remind me not to do any work in the future.

Well I'm going to do Psychology, Maths, ICT, and Computing.

A-Level maths is largely calculus. IT's not too bad but with further maths you have to do advanced calculus ie ODEs, PDEs and Fourier series which is truely terrifying stuff....

Physics you need to get a double B in science Biology and Chemistry + Physics. Geography you need to get a B also, i don't know the exact things you will have to do in them but I'm sure you've got plenty of time t change your mind. Proably by then they would have changed it a bit somehow.

I'm on an A* average, so I think I'll take maths then. Do you know anything about taking Physics and Geography as well?
