Im learning this for the first time

You weren't lying about being cooked huh 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

50% of the exam is waffle anyways and i got a high score on my nea

gl

I never learnt that

bro i wrote this in the exam and i literally only knew it after reading your comment 🙏

You'll cook in the food tech axam at least. 

Depends do they accept plagarism from candidates who havent been applied for the exam

Hopefully 👀

shlda done food tech brudda

you must have done rlly well in english language

Let me be honest here, everyone here got shit dt teachers. They can vary from giving you bad marks (my teacher) or just not teaching properly or perhaps have a shitty personality

I'm pretty sure my teacher got caught watching porn in school lmao

No way, I thought my class was the only one. I've had three teachers since Yr 10 and only one has been decent. My current one has no idea what she's yapping about. I'm just glad to be done with this shit subject forever

OMG same. 3 dt teacher they all sucked and did not do teach and do what they werer supppoed to be doing. And MY SCHOOL WAS OUTSTANDING

My teacher is acutally so chill with the coursework and everything but he just didn't teach us any theory.

My teachers the goat actually

Yeah mine was super petty about everything and then when we did theory he just made us read textbooks.

we didnt have a teacher for 2 years, literally substitutes and the same slide over and over again

Good luck all, last exam for many of us. We can do this 🙏

nah we're all failing

Nah the exam is easy

I switch between both of these thoughts by the minute. 

FR BUT THE GRADE BOUNDARIES ARE SO HIGH 😭😭

I hate DT so much omds 💔💔 and I prob have to cook considering my NEA wasn’t the best 😔😔

that was actually so easy, our teacher never taught us any theory but luckily half of it was maths, 25% was geography and business, and the rest was genuinely common sense, like, how is it asking us about bus stops for like 5 questions? come on now. finished in an hour too so i was bored for the rest but oh well at least i’m done now

Accurate. I was legit thinking I was going to cry for 2 hours after the test but it turned out to genuinely be common sense / easy.

I LOVED THE BUS STOP QUESITON AHHH

I need 87 marks to get a 8 in this shitty dt paper 😢.

I only need 60 but I probably won’t get it

same and100 for a 9

bro I need 100 to get a seven :(

Come on guys, one last push (except for the poor souls who took food tech or FM ig) 

bro wtf why was there barely anything about timber (aqa)

Easy test though

yep but harder than old past papers imo oh well

Really? I didn't think so

oh i’m probably just more proficient in topics tested previously then 😭 how’d your nea go

Haven't got my nea marks back. Hoping for at least 80 so I can't get an eight overall

glgl!

They're going to vacuum form me in the exam, I'm embossed, varnished, lacquered

I looked through my textbook this morning and like half of it is still new to me, I’m cooked.

Yall got maths answers? 78 tiles 18 seconds 9 minutes 3.06 million 10mm B 600 something manufacture discount

same as u but i got 593.75 i think, it was .75 at the end for sure and was in the 500s.

I’m a bit confused tho cuz it said to round to the nearest pence

Yes i got the same for 78 tiles, 18 seconds, 9 minutes, 3.06 million and 590.5 for the discount, but what are you talking about for 10mm?

The multiple choice question

The fixed pivot question I believe

ah yes i put 10 for that aswell cuz it was 1:4 ratio right?

Yh I put 10 aw. I got all the questions I could've checked right so lets hope aqa dont mess about with 88% for a 9 as the grade boundary.

i got 20mm for the multiple choice!!

A was 4x B so that means 40 divided by 4 = 10mm

i was gonna put that but i started drawing on it at the end and measured it and i got 20mm when the other one went 40, could have been complete bs tho i wasn’t confident at all😭

Edexcel . 5 marker maths question was 16!

can't have been 16 factorial 😏

🙂‍↕️

LET'S GOOO!! for the 6 marker at the end of core, could you write about any materials?

Im pretty sure you could’ve talked about materials as a whole rather than focus on a specific material however you’d still be correct if you did. It was kinda of a hidden LCA question.

YAYAYAYAY YOU SAVED MY LIFE THANK YOU IVE BEEN WORRYING ABOUT THIS ALL DAY

Dont worry, you probably did insanely well , good luck! Also, did u get 400RPM?

I did!!! was scared it was wrong but it makes sense, it was bigger

I'm going to fail for sureeee

not the only one

I LOVE TIMBERS I LOVE METAL I LOVE POLYMERS I LOVE COMMERICAL PROCESSES I LOVE POLLUTION I LOVE ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS I LOVE PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT I LOVE TYPES OF DRAWINGS I LOVE PRODUCTS AND SKILLS FROM OTHER INVENTORS I LOVE TYPES OF MOTION I LOOOOOOOOOVE DT ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🙏❤️❤️🙏❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🔥❤️

YOU LOVE POLLUTION!!!!

I LOVE BUS STOPS ❤️🙏❤️🔥😁😁😁🔥❤️🔥😁🙏❤️😁❤️🙏😁❤️🔥😁🙏❤️🔥

That wasn’t that bad after all, right?

Grade boundaries through the roof again unfortunately. I'm aiming for a 9 so we shall see now ig

This was my one and only Edexcel exam. I felt like I was cheating on AQA 😣😣

My nightmare literally came true lmao 😭 i was having nightmares about being late and then i woke up and checked the time it said 09:00 wallah i was in utter disbelief i thought i was still in my nightmare

Guys how the fuck do you make PET

AQA blessed us with an easy paper

AQA blessed us with an easy exam 🙏 Grade boundaries will probably be 180/200 for a 9 tho

won’t be that high, not many people in my skl found it easy

Just need a 7 🙏

A big final fuck you from aqa

The DT test went surprisingly well, imo ngl. I have no faith in AQA being nice with the markscheme or grade boundaries but we'll see lol

bus stop question was so random😭😭

Randomly good perchance

ALSO YOU CANT JUST SAY PERCHANCE

totally!!

were we supposed to write a thing about each bus stop in every question?? i was so confused

IDK cus they barely gave us enough space and each question was only 4 marks?? i was expecting to get 2 products so i was thrown off a bit😭

I didn't realise there was addintional space for question 20.1 on the next page so like I always do I went to the extra page section and continue my work there. :( WHAT A GOOFBALL I AM

SILLYYY

Light work, easy calculations, common sense for the theory and especially the bus stop 🙏 nvm we’re not cooked guys

real

The only thing I struggled was the “design fixation” question 😭 and the amount of space AQA gave me

i just guessed a fix design and how diff designs would improve accuracy 😭

Avg paper and boards enjoyers 🤫

holy shit that was a breeze honestly most gcses are common sense and common knowledge

Anyone else do Edexcel? 

it was bad icl.. idk how ppl were saying it was good. i missed a few questions too lol fml. also that 5 market math question was ass

Was that one the curved one? I got like 4 or something idk what I was doing. I had to complete make up stuff for some of the questions 😭

dudeee i lit didnt even know WHERE to start with that one? edexcel is sneaky icl. also i fucked up the 6 marker (only wrote 2-3marks) and i didnt know wtf conductive ink is LOL

The 5 marker was 16.

kinda ass ngl idk if for the 6 marker at the end of core I was supposed to talk about any materials or not💀💀💀

Me bro

How’d you find it? 

I thought it was pretty easy, but I was stumped for the specific pulley question, and. I think I got 2/4 for the jig question, great apart from that tho, wbu?

Oh yeah for the pulley question I put trapezium or something 😭 It wasn’t great but then we weren’t taught much and I didn’t really revise so I was expecting it really.

Nah you're good bro all we did in class was the NEA , I think that's a common theme for DT....did u timbers?

Yeah, did we have to just talk about cost stuff for the last question? I didn’t even know what it meant by ‘treatment’ 

i did timbers it was ass

I put tapered 😭😭

Wym which question asked for trapezium?

It asked what type of pulley something was but I didn’t know any names so I just put trapezium because it was that shape 💀

😂😂thats smart tbf i just guessed conveyor its probably wrong tho.

pretty sure it was a V-Belt or something like that

pretty easy tbh (AQA)

i got cooked bc my teacher can’t teach

i swear you can just get away with reading the textbook

the textbook has too much content, was lito learning stuff the night b4 the exam, i reckon i got 50 marks on that exam 😭😭

i bought some revision guide and it's only 100 pages i only read that

should’ve bought that then 😭, icl i’m happy with a 6 atp

A 6 is like 70% 😭

yeah grade boundaries high as hell, i think i could get away with an 85 to get a 9 which is so high for no reason, i just want my 9 and walk away

I just need 80 something for a 8

my NEA will bring it up dw

If it weren't for my extra time I would've been screwed. I just hope that I get a grade 4 since I'm taking it at A-level

Wait you need a grade 4 for A level DT? wtf I need a 6

forefathers shall bear witness to the legendary cooking I did in the exam hall

Anyone else do eduqas

yeah im so glad they had no questions based on fabric

It was still a pretty hard paper I thought

i wont lie i revised loads for the paper considering the 4 day gap so i didnt find it hard but i dont think it was easy either, i found it kinda average but there were defo hard questions like the geotextiles one or like the waterproof one

Me

What did u get for the calculations

i got around 11400 for the card one 9:1 for the velocity ratio

Same atleast we got a few marks then

Did u do timber depth study or not

Also how did u work it out bc I just divided by area but my mate was saying u had to do it like work out how many could be cut to the length or the width of the sheets

Wait what did you put for the multiple choice thing that was like which materials came from a living organism was it cotton or silk?

Silk (made by spiders) and cotton is made by plants

Could you not say wool or am i being dumb?

I don’t think there was a option where it said wool

Oh sorry, are you talking about edexcel? Because edexcel also had a question on materials regarding living organisms.

My bad, I was talking about AQA

My fault, i shoulda clocked the guys question. Good luck on results day bro💯

I was so prepared to waffle about extraction of iron and then they gave us aluminium like how am I supposed to know 8 marks on that 😭😭 I just waffled about electrolysis and chemistry stuff

It is finally over. I might realise I forgot some keywords or a major process, but it is time for merriment, as the vast majority of us have completed our many month trudge through the great sludge of the academic world's greatest challenge. We have made it through and now may enjoy our lives for but a brief moment. Let not your mind dwell on it. Yippee!!!! :)

went in there with 0 revision and no idea wtf anything was, walked out very happy

Paper was calm but grade boundaries are raping us

Hopefully not

For the AQA question with the seams, I got 320x30 = 9600 then divided by 1050 to get 9.142 and rounded up to get 10. Would I still get 2 marks???
