The Large Data Set ☔ • A-Level Maths • Edexcel

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.

I accepted the fact of loosing 1% in my maths exams

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

[wesh]

What are your predictions for the 2024 Edexcel Maths A level exam (any paper)?

[chonkycat]

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?

[parwanawafayee]

Thank you for this video. It helped a lot!

[soda-sqgb]

Thank you so much for saving my alevels!

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?

[megafoxgamingcool]

thank you so much sir. very helpful video.

Hey Mr Bicen. Would you ever cover the Edexcel A Level Statistics?

[keptchange]

Just used the vid to make some large data set q cards, so useful :0

[dj.iinoxent]

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

[nosir]

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.
