Seeing this has honestly made me feel less alone - I'm self teaching A Level Maths at 25, just because I've always regretted not choosing it. Ive struggled so much with motivation, how to teach myself and wanted to give up numerous times - seeing your experience will help me so much Mr Bicen, as I'm sure it'll help many others. A massive thank you for doing this, I would call you crazy but I've paid for my exams for no reason other than to challenge myself too!
This is amazing - I love that you're sitting the exams just to challenge yourself, I think learning new things is such an important thing in life! Kudos to you, and good luck! Let me know how I can help :)
This is a true teacher, i always wanted teachers to do exams to themselves on what they are teaching cus im convinced most of them would fail since they just read of the board
Good luck with this Mr Bicen, all credit to you for committing to this in such a public way. Obviously it will go well but it’s still quite an undertaking. Thank you once again for your videos and supporting material which were a huge benefit for my daughter in the summer 2023 exams.
This will be interesting, hopefully you find time to document your progress and thoughts well. That full marks goal is where you realise how annoying small arithmetic errors and weird mark schemes are.
I think this is a super helpful idea Mr Bicen! Thank you so much for all your help especially for creating the individual playlists for the FM modules!!
the reason i'm watching your video it's because i'm gonna seat for my A level exams Early May this year 2024 after 8 years. i think we have almost the same spirit. Good Luck!
Mr Bicen-im at uni so dont really apply but on business perspective this is amazing. will show patient journey and almost prove yourself- the attention you will get from students, and future tuition nd sponsors. aka the teacher who did his exam. this is great
Thank you! I'm not really a 'business' kind of person at all, I'm really just doing it because I love maths - but you're right, I hope it will show future students how committed I am! Thanks again!
I'm gonna do a prediction video ranking which papers I am most/least likely to get full marks on... let's hope I actually do get it on at least one paper though haha
hI Mr. Bicen, i think it would be really useful if you could make videos of answering the later maths exam papers of 2021 and 2022 for pure stats and mechanics. You are probably the best maths teacher out there and this would really help us when we do exam practice. Thanks
memorisation never beats understanding. there's not actually a lot in terms of key facts or formulas you got to remember and most you can derive in formula book or understand not memorise them
I'll show you my whole process - it will be slightly different to what I might recommend as a student, but there's lots to share and learn from each other!
Hi sir, was wondering when abouts we can expect you to drop a video on your process of learning and memorising stuff goes? As you know some of us are taking the exams this summer which will help a lot 😄
Great to see someone have the courage to do this! How will your grade calculation work? Do you select the best combination of papers in terms of marks and discard the others?
Thank you! Yes - for FM they take your best two modules to go towards the grade calculation, I think there'll be an algorithm to make sure of this, especially as the boundaries vary slightly with different combos. I need to predict before hand which will be my best two... hmmm!
hi sir, i was wondering if you would consider making a cheaper membership option for further maths, where you could pick the 2 option units you are studying for AS or not include the worksheets, as the current price is quite unaffordable for me! just wondering if this is something you would consider !!
qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/Support/Examination-timetables/gce-summer-2024-final.pdf If they start with an 8 as the code, it's AS. If they start with a 9 as the code, it's A-Level. Hope that helps!
This is great! I love that you're doing this just to challenge yourself - I think learning new things is such an important thing in life - kudos to you for doing it, let me know how I can help!
Hey sir for the membership of your channel, is a normal membership different to the further maths one, because I really need access to the fm videos and over here it’s saying it’s 30 a month which is way out of my budget, or do I just need the standard membership to gain access
It's the Further Maths Options tier - if you are joining from iOS it comes up more expensive at £30, but if you join direct from a browser on TH-cam it should only be £23.99. I understand this is out of budget for some people, but at this stage I need to justify payment in order to fund me taking all the time to make the content!
You’re working incredibly hard sir so I genuinely do understand and I thank you for all the content you have put out for free despite the number of hours you’ve put into this channel, on my own now 😔
@@BicenMathsno problem sir, if you don’t mind me asking would you happen to know any other channels which happen to cover further pure and further mechanics content?
bros gonna raise the grade boundary😭😭
single-handedly lmaooo
OH FFS SAKE
Lmao
ur right, but he'll help raise our grade so I'll allow it
Feel bad for the year 13s
Glad I have 2 more years
This is going to be amazing to see - and so beneficial to you as a teacher. It will be hard, but it's an incredible thing to do!
Thank you so much, Lewis! Your channel and resources are amazing - thanks for watching and commenting 🤩
@@BicenMaths Any time!
@@PhysicsOnline you should try to do one too this year for A level physics ?

Thank you - doing an exam is very different than teaching someone else to do one... let's see what happens!
they wouldnt fail. To be a teacher they had to do a lot harder exams than what you are doing.
You are motivating every students! Thank you

You are very welcome - thank you for supporting me, I really appreciate it! :)
Some revision livestreams would be super helpful coming up to the exams 🙏
Noted! Will do this for sure.
This will be interesting, hopefully you find time to document your progress and thoughts well. That full marks goal is where you realise how annoying small arithmetic errors and weird mark schemes are.
I am most worried about the worded questions and whether I'll hit the right level of detail required! Let's find out!
wish all teachers were like this, respect 🙏
Thank you!
cursed spotted in the wild
Man our generation is truly lucky
What do you mean mate??

Good luck! You'll do great!
you are incredibly motivational and inspirational for doing this
letsgooo!!!! lets both get that A* in math mr bicen aha
The ultimate motivation to study- the potential of beating Mr Bicen!
What should I do for those who beat me??
@@BicenMaths more free nandos
This is fantastic! It would be so helpful if you could make a few videos for the less common FM modules such as FS2 😊
FS2 is coming soon! Will have completed all the 2 modules in time for exam season!

Unseen papers nahhh that's insane bicen maths hopefully u get FULLMARKS
I'm gonna do a prediction video ranking which papers I am most/least likely to get full marks on... let's hope I actually do get it on at least one paper though haha
i came out of pure1 last year thinking i got 100 but it was 96 instead, so easy to make a mistake@@BicenMaths
As a maths teacher I think it’s amazing that you’re doing this, you’re very brave!
Thank you so much! I am starting to get a bit nervous about some of them... which is good and healthy, I think!
If I miss a grade by one mark it’s your fault
Thank you for making a level maths and further maths easier❤
All the best sir.
RIP the grade boundaries
May seem little to you, but it must mean a lot to ur students to share the experience w them. Think this should be a standard thing
Thank you. I appreciate this comment!
Those 6% don't want you to raise the grade boundaries lol
You got this !!
I am feeling very behind right now BUT I will get it done!
@@BicenMaths I’m sure you’ll get everything together in time!
Nice getting 100 percent is gonna be impressive it going beyond just knowing the book knowledge and also it means lack of human error
hI Mr. Bicen, i think it would be really useful if you could make videos of answering the later maths exam papers of 2021 and 2022 for pure stats and mechanics. You are probably the best maths teacher out there and this would really help us when we do exam practice. Thanks
Thank you! I will see if I have time to do some of this closer to the exams - I am really very busy at the moment making FM content!
One thing that would help me is seeing how you maintain your knowledge, as you're learning new content?
Sure - I'll try and address this in my video updates!
it'd be very interesting to see how you'd revise for those exams - any materials you'd specifically find useful.
Good luck!!
Hello mr Bicen
Where did you learn the new further maths content from, did u use the textbooks?
I used the textbooks and various other videos for concepts which I didn't think were explained in enough detail in the books!
would appreciate if you showed us memorisation techniques for a-level maths!
memorisation never beats understanding. there's not actually a lot in terms of key facts or formulas you got to remember and most you can derive in formula book or understand not memorise them
I'll show you my whole process - it will be slightly different to what I might recommend as a student, but there's lots to share and learn from each other!
Hi sir, was wondering when abouts we can expect you to drop a video on your process of learning and memorising stuff goes? As you know some of us are taking the exams this summer which will help a lot 😄
I should think I'll get one out in the next month as I embark on a module I don't know that much about: Further Stats 2 (insert panic face emoji here)
£300 for 13 total exams? Where did you find such a good price as I’m also paying😅
Great to see someone have the courage to do this! How will your grade calculation work? Do you select the best combination of papers in terms of marks and discard the others?
Thank you! Yes - for FM they take your best two modules to go towards the grade calculation, I think there'll be an algorithm to make sure of this, especially as the boundaries vary slightly with different combos. I need to predict before hand which will be my best two... hmmm!
@@BicenMathsyou should do a poll - ‘Which two modules will Mr Bicen perform best on?’
Great idea! @@saulkay31

I'm afraid this is a bit too complicated to set up, but I appreciate that you have joined anyway - thank you! :)
You have to also sit STEP and AEA
this is a great idea, i am also sitting my exams this summer, will you be showing us what resources you use for exam / revision questions?
Yes! I will do!
We need further maths zooms
Hi si
Why don’t you do them earlier actually iam about to doo the exam on may so this helps alot
thank God Mr Bicen decided to teach maths instead of history 🙏
Hahaha I don't really think Bicen History has the same ring to it either
Please dont
also is there any chance you know what the date of each paper is for 2024 as i cant tell what papers are AS and A level looking at exam timetables
qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/Support/Examination-timetables/gce-summer-2024-final.pdf
If they start with an 8 as the code, it's AS.
If they start with a 9 as the code, it's A-Level.
Hope that helps!
@@BicenMaths thank you so much
How did you book the exams privately may i ask, since im trying to do the same.
This is great! I love that you're doing this just to challenge yourself - I think learning new things is such an important thing in life - kudos to you for doing it, let me know how I can help!
No way

@@BicenMathsno problem sir, if you don’t mind me asking would you happen to know any other channels which happen to cover further pure and further mechanics content?
@@hk959 I'd check out @TLMaths for sure
do you also happen to know when the 2023 papers will be made public on the Edexcel website?
2024 june
Yep usually 9 months after they are sat, but seems to be delayed most years.
Just curious Mr Bicen are you sitting all module ‘2’ exams on the same day because they are all normally sat on the second last day of exams.
Yes, I am! The 4 hardest exams, all on the same day 😭 I have a lot to get on with 😅
there is barely any further maths walkthroughs
Which exam board for the examinations are you planning to take
I'm going to do Edexcel!
Please dont man 😭😭😭
Bicen Maths better than TL MATHS
Noooo TLMaths is legendary
What maths conversion degree did you study ?
Something called a 'graduate diploma' in maths.
Are fm1 and fp1 videos in the membership¿
Yes
Yes they are
how can i become the channel member
because i need futhermaths videos as im am doing it privately
If says join next to subscribe
no it isnt there
@@belindamary7816
Have a look when viewing on desktop - it’s also cheaper that way too. If you’re not UK based, TH-cam may also not show this option yet.
i am not Uk based what can i do now
@@BicenMaths
I wonder how are you going to learn new content?
I'll show some of that process!
this motivates me to revise so i can do better than you
good luck mate
