Yea I would be thrilled with above 80 raw honestly, I felt like I did pretty well, except for the stuff about DNA and protein/polypeptide synthesis, and the relationship between DNA and things and blah

Definitely wasn't expecting to have so much time though

I honestly don't even care about seeing my marks or my ATAR, I only want to know what uni course I get into. I would be perfectly happy to never see my atar

loved it, so glad the didn't pop a question on transgenic species. All happy :)
THIS.

Guys, about the question on the T&B cells, the answers were so non-specific I didn't know which one corresponded to the correct one.

And also about the question with the mutation and its effect on Phenotype, what did you have for your example?

Schools are not allowed to issue the CSSA paper after the specified date.

If they do, then they're breaking the rules.

Implications of that = nothing

Meaning, it still occurs in schools because no one cares.

It's ridiculous, though.

Lol. Everyone found it good.

It was probably the worst exam I've ever done.

The questions were good, but the way I wrote my answers was terrible. And some of the option completely screwed me over.
