It’s “Do not Reject” not “Accept”

Today I came across (unless I just haven’t noticed it before) the first thing I haven’t liked in the new style mark schemes for the AQA AS and A-Level Maths exams..

It’s this:

32DE33E0-15EC-49BC-A472-80613D0E62AF

I always make a really big thing about how you mustn’t say “accept” when talking about the null hypothesis as doing a hypothesis test doesn’t give any results information about the validity of life the null hypothesis.

Do you think I am being too pedantic here? I’d love to hear your thoughts?

AQA Paper 2 Pure Predicted Content

UPDATE: Full paper now up. Solutions by 8pm tonight if not earlier.

This is later than I had hoped, and in fact this is Version 1. I will be adding some extra questions tonight and solutions will be shared tomorrow.

As I have said previously I can’t predict what will or won’t turn up, or the kinds of questions on the pure components of AQA Paper 2 and 3 for A-Level Maths. I think it is likely that some topics not examined so far will come up, and the linked file contains some questions on these topics.
