someone, what would a 83 raw align to for that test and what would a 93 raw align to for that test?

Which one do you think you got

I think I'm getting 85-90 raw

Which one do you think you got

I think I'm getting 85-90 raw

worst case should be 83, 93 is at the higher end depending on how good my responses were to the teachers

guys i didnt do any past papers at all but I know the scaling of last years exam was good (teacher figured an example out) so was last years exam as easy or what?

scaling was better last year (prob cos it was a bit different to the previous years in that it was more application and science skills than content), iirc 78 scaled to a 90. this year was easier than last year so the b6 cut-off will prob be higher and the scaling won't be as good

last years alignment was 78 to 90 apparently, given this years was a bit easier, hopefully 82+ should align to 90+

i think you're supposed to keep it within the little corner thing at the top (dont rlly know how to describe it...), but i dont actually know, which is why I rewrote coz I wasn't sure

i searched and apparently it doesnt matter

 

[goodcat911]

okay im done with this stupid subject bye

i put the same thing but on the one we put was herbicide which kills plants. i readit as insecticide too :/ the correct answer was nuking the snails

nuking the snails seems so unethical

:///
i didnt find it that easy
but i was super prepared for a content heavy exam memorised everything and all that but they gave us a heavy skill based paper which is why i found it hard since i forgot working scientfiically was a tihng

tbh man,
I studied only for 2 hours the day before and I found it easy and yeah what youre saying is 100% right
I really thank my teacher for teaching us the science skills needed from interpreting and drawing on info from statistics and graphs etc because thats what it was about

nuking the snails seems so unethical

ye is that the confirmed answer or what

 

[dsakvyilsa]

Fr I feel bad for the markers reading word vomit

I always thought we were supposed to be concise....

 

[dsakvyilsa]

ye is that the confirmed answer or what

it seems wrong to me but idek I answered w antiobiotics but...... i have absolutely no clue

 

[Unovan]

what was the answer for the gene cloning mcq? (18 or 19 I think), the wording was confusing me alot

B I think

 

[year10studentpreparin]

it seems wrong to me but idek I answered w antiobiotics but...... i have absolutely no clue

i did antibiotics as well

 

[ilovescottishfolds]

B I think

i got D for the gene cloning steps question

 

[year10studentpreparin]

so guys that was a science skill based exam yeah? because I studied for 2 hours total and I knew everything I needed to know and I remembered my bio teacher talking to us about science skills

 

[dsakvyilsa]

B I think

I think thats what I did unless I changed my answer.....

Broski stop...

Fuck NSW transport and their cows tell me how tf I got booted off the train and I’m still waiting for the next one

I was eating my corndog BUT THE RAT TWO SEATS BEHIND ME HAVING A WHOLE MACCAS MUKBANG WASNT KICKED OFF

 

[Unovan]

i got D for the gene cloning steps question

I might have the letter wrong but I'm 99% this I'd right

Pick the vector and original--> get the DNA--> make the recombinant --> insert the recombinant --> select the recombinant organism

I always thought we were supposed to be concise....

lool if u look at sample answers for past papers, theyre so bad (to get full marks). also they def gave the lines as an estimate for how much to write (or else theyd have given more space at the end of each question). plus nesa marking is fairly chill (at least compared to my schools marking) so should be fine.
