CA2 model - best practice

Sorry to hear Viki. Can I ask if you did the assignments and mock exams and got them marked? I believe they're pretty good representations of how one does in the exam, atleast for my case it was. Best of luck if you're doing it in April

 

Thanks for the good wishes. I'm hoping to pass this exam in April. To answer your questions, I did a mock exam (with grading) and past papers - selections by myself - no grading. I believe there is no assignments for CA2.

 

There's the Series X assignments that comes with CMP but I think marking vouchers have to purchased separately if you want them graded.

 

Thanks, that might be a good idea to do. How exactly do the series X look like? Would it be paper 1 or paper 2 for each X1, X2....etc?

 

I found the info on the website. I'm going to do it. Thanks for your tips.

 

Here is an excerpt from Additional Guidance. If the random number is <=.4, then it is a pass (1), else it is a fail (0) which is what is demonstrated in the solution.

Simulation of pass and fail indicators
The random numbers from the U[0,1] distribution can be used to simulate a pass or fail by
using the following rule, where Z is the pass rate and U is the random number:
if U <= Z, the exam is passed;
if U > Z, the exam is failed.
