I love that I said 'a short little video' and then proceeded to talk about the weather for 30 minutes. British people love to talk about the weather, I guess.
Anyway, here's the folder with the slides questions, and the data set itself in. Enjoy - if that's even possible...

0:00 LDS as a % of the total marks
2:12 Months included
3:18 UK stations
6:24 UK measurements pt.1
12:53 Rainfall and cleaning
14:19 UK measurements pt.2 (wind)
18:18 International stations
19:14 International measurements
20:53 AS Question
24:39 A2 Question
Make a petition for AQA, OCR, Edexcel to remove this from their A-Level Maths specification.
Cambridge International A-Level Maths students don't have to deal with this. I have a bit of envy for those on the Cambridge International exam board.
I met a home educated student that chose Cambridge International for A-Level Maths, and UK Edexcel for A-Level Further Maths.
Complex numbers, vector equation of line questions from Edexcel A-Level Further Maths was free marks for him, as if GCSE Maths questions were in A-Level Maths, and already covered that part; as complex numbers and vector equation of lines were in Cambridge International A-Level Maths.
Didn't have to learn mechanics at all as he told me he chose Probability & Statistics 2 for A-Level Maths and Further Pure modules for A-Level Further Maths.
Didn't have to learn large data set as it was not in the Cambridge International A-Level Maths specification.
its not that deep bro its worth like 1 mark overall 😭
I accepted the fact of loosing 1% in my maths exams
So real 😅
REALEST
The one thing I always dread about a level maths applied papers 🥶🥶 thank you for this video summarising everything to know!
I dread it too! Now I hope that we can all gather those extra marks, which we know can make all the difference close to grade boundaries!
Thankyou so much for this, it's always such a pain revising the large data set
Bicen maths you are the goat. Everytime someone tells me whats a great maths channel/ resource im saying BICEN MATHS😁😁😁😁
Ahhhh thank you so much!
thank you so much sir. very helpful video.
Mr bicen u r the goat
Thank you so much for saving my alevels!
Lovely video❤😊
Great video!
Just used the vid to make some large data set q cards, so useful :0
this is amazing ur a legend
I believe I saw you post this video yesterday and then take it down, I was looking forward to watching it but here we are now! I always struggle with the LDS
Yesss I didn't mean to post it yesterday, I needed to change a couple of bits! Thanks for coming back to watch it!
Thanks alot .
Hiii , do you happen to have the notes for all the topics in like a google drive ? I remember using it a while back ago but I lost it
the google drive link is in the description of his yt channel
Hi Bicen, do you have walkthrough videos of the exam questions by topic that you’ve kindly uploaded for us? Cheers.
I'm afraid I don't have these - but I might do some in livestreams soon!
Hi Mr Bicen, which modules would you say are the easiest? Both content and exam wise.
Oooo that is a good question, I’ll need to think on that one!
Hey Mr Bicen. Would you ever cover the Edexcel A Level Statistics?
I mean... I used to say I'd never do Decision maths, and here we are now with the whole module covered... so never say never I guess!
do you have any tips for doing stats on the calculator (casio cg50). It keeps giving me the wrong values and I'm not understanding how to create a frequency column
In stats mode you have to go into SET and make sure that one of the columns is referring to a frequency, and not a data list! That should allow you to input values correctly. Once you've SET them correctly it should all work out properly!
I think you should do an everything you need to memorise for the Large Data Set too! :)
This is pretty much that video though! Please don't make me do any more LDS stuff hahaha
@@BicenMaths I guess you are right haha, okay it’s fine we’ll let you off 😂
For daily mean visibility, surely the horizon would get in the way before you reach 40km? Do you just have to keep building a higher and higher measurement station to see further? When do you stop?
Good question! www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/guides/observations/how-we-measure-visibility
Interesting! I wonder why we would ever need to calculate the visibility for a distance that stretches beyond the horizon, but I would never say no to more data. Thank you for the link! @@BicenMaths
the dates of the masterclass of the AS pure collide when i am im school 😢oh well, ive watched nearly all ur pure videos(apart from logs and differenation), would have been nice to join
It was hard this year as (unusually) the Easter dates were all out of sync. Many people buy the session and watch the recording/use the additional materials, and find it very useful! I would recommend that, for sure - and you can always ask any extra questions you might have!
as someone doing ial maths im so glad i dont have to do this
Is it worth just memorising these tables?
I tried taking my Yr12 teacher’s advice by becoming ‘aware’ of some of the data, but that wasn’t enough, and I struggled on LDS questions.
I’ll be glancing over them before the exam for sure.
not worth at all just guess them
Thank you, mock exams next week 😅
Good luck! I hope you get the LDS marks!
Hey Mr Bicen, Can you please tell me all the things I get if I subscribe to the "Direct help from Mr Bicen" Membership Option?
Do I get the option to ask questions I haven't been able to solve and such?
Thanks
You can join the Discord chat where we have a group of people to share questions and answers with - and once per week I’m available 1 hour for answering questions! Sorry for the delay in replying, I have been away on holiday!
Okay thanks, No worries @@BicenMaths
Cooked for maths paper 3
when u are preparing for ur exams this year, how far back are the questions you are doing going from (ie. from 2000), and also are you do u do questions from other exam boards
For the modules I'm less familiar with, I'll be doing all the Edexcel papers for the new spec, and I'll try the mock set papers too. I'll also be doing the AS papers too to get more of an idea of the style for the new modules too. If there are any topics I'm shaky on, I'll try and find which module they are in in the IAL or the old spec and do more from there. But I'm not a typical student so won't be doing a ton of full past paper practice, as I'm very used to working fast and under timed pressure, which is why I will probably be selective of individual questions!
do you have further pure 1 and further mechanics?
Yes but these are only for paid for members right now. They can be found at the bottom of the channel.
@@BicenMaths thank you
What’s the point in revising for what is usually around 3 marks worth of content? Wouldn’t everyone’s time be better spent on other topics?
I guess watching this could make the difference between one grade and the next - every mark counts ultimately!
Is there an advice video on the Large Data Set for AQA on your channel, or are there any other resources for this, for AQA?
I'm afraid not, I mostly have an Edexcel focus!
What are your predictions for the 2024 Edexcel Maths A level exam (any paper)?
The only predictions I feel good about making are those for Paper 2 after Paper 1 has been sat - the rest is all purely speculative!
hi sir, at 22:11 i don't understand how you got 0-50 dm, how did you get the 50 ?
As it shows 0, and that has been rounded to the nearest hundred, we know that this is from 0 to 50 Dm - as anything from 0
@@BicenMaths thanks sir☺
@@BicenMaths Thank you!
Sir do we have to know the examples or can we just know the typical range and will be fine
No definitely not, just a rough idea of typical range - I wanted to put a few numbers/examples in there to make it more visual when trying to remember what sort of measurements you might expect to see - otherwise it feels more abstract! Good question.
Do we have to know the names of measuring instruments, say like a barometer?
No, definitely not!
Hi sir, could you please post a video on the list of proofs questions that would be best to know before the exam? not the ways of 'proving by...' but for example proving arithmetic/geometric formulas, prove sinx differentiates to cosx, proving √3 is irrational... You don't need to go through how to do them but it would be so helpful to get a list or general idea of what could come up. Thank you so much for your help.
This is a good idea! I'm very busy but if I have the time I'll try and do this!
@@BicenMaths thank you so so much!!
when will the 2022 qs come to the exam pack
I will try and work on this soon! I have got a lot on right now running revision sessions, so soon, I hope!
i tried to do that last example on my own but wow, that question is ridiculous for only 2 marks?!
Crazy, right? What does this even show about maths?!
@@BicenMaths exactly ahah! but thank you so much sir for this video, now when i do stats revision im genuinely not losing those large data set marks anymore!
Hey sir, a bit of a weird question but have you seen the mock set 4 paper 3 statistics? I’ve done it as a pre mock and got 41/50 - I compared with the grade boundaries of 2023 and 81% seems a bit high for it - it was pretty hard!
The mock set papers aren’t likely to have the same grade boundaries as 2023 - 2023 has been the highest it’s been, and was definitely easier than the mock sets. So use the older grade boundaries for these!
@@BicenMaths thanks sir, I’ve now done the 2023 papers as mocks and do you think the statistics was much harder than everything else? Mechanics felt really simple and pure was quite simple as well, but statistics had some weird questions. Also (sorry for the questions) do you think the papers this year will be as easy as 2023 or do you think they will be same difficulty or easier/harder
@@Beesechurgersports I am in total agreement that stats 2023 was the hardest component of the paper, by far - all students last year found that too! As for 2024… my guess is as good as any - but, I feel that the papers will follow the trend of being ‘easier’ than the previous years, and with higher boundaries.
@@BicenMaths thanks sir
HI Bisen, forthe first practice question you did how did you know that the range was between 0Dm-50Dm?
So in the table it said that the visibility was 0 rounded to the nearest hundred. Numbers which round to 0 when rounded to the nearest 100 are 0-50 (well, technically just less than 50 but that doesn't matter). Then I change 50Dm to 500m.
Do we need to know any dates of storms that happened
Not exact dates - they're in October both years!
@@BicenMaths thank you for the quick reply and good luck for tomorrow
hi i dont really understand the end at like 28:05 how did you know how to arrange leuchers heathrow and hurn could you explain it please thank u
I just arranged them in a vertical line from south to north, and then thought about how clockwise or anticlockwise wind would behave! It's a very, very strange question!
“the MOST annoying thing…”
so zesty
man statistics is the absolute worst
is large data set given in the exam?
Nope - you're supposed to have been using it throughout the course... not sure that anyone does this, if anyone does, please let us know in this comment!
Is this in further maths?
No just normal maths for the statistics paper.
Do you have playlist covering all stats and mechanics topics for Maths A Levels. Not Curther maths. Just Maths
czcams.com/channels/58b34-W7M-bLEARri1912g.html If you scroll to Applied Year 1 and then Applied Year 2 sections, those are all the playlists for stats and mechanics.
@@BicenMaths do they cover all topics or like predominant ones in exam?
@ibrahimhossain8489 all topics
Thanks so much
The video was so helpful
Can you please consider doing AS or A level paper walkthroughs for edexcel please
I will do, when I find some time - just sooo busy right now!
@@BicenMaths Thank you so much
I can only imagine how busy you must be.
Are those master classes free?
They are paid for events!
I would pay £15 @@BicenMaths
