Option topics for sciences (1 Viewer)

Do they get scaled differently cos they obviously differ in terms of difficulty...

e.g. forensic chemistry looks so uber-ugly to me, especially since im anti-biology, and ill be damned if i ever have to do that without any scaling compensation.

and umm if they do get scaled differently, cud someone gimme info on which ones r hard, easy // get what sort of scaling? thanks

i don't think they get scaled differently - correct me if i'm wrong.

It would be very unfair if they we're because many classes don't have any choice in what they do. Our teachers didn't give us any choice cos they figured the ones we did were the ones they knew most about. Also our school doesn't have the resources to do some of the options

but it would be illogical to think that they are of the same difficulty, and since some may regard certain options as 'harder' than others i think they would scale them up according to difficulty, but then again i wasn't sure.

the whole notion of having these option topics pisses me off, why did science have to be eccentric in the most annoying way possible... crappy system

yeah i'm pretty sure they are scaled differently... coz some of them aren't all that hard but there is a lot of content, while others are harder work

so we are allowed to pick a diferent option to the rest of the class and do it ourselves if we want???

the harder topics r just marked more easily, the easire ones r marked harder

Oh i see... so its more like an intrinsic scaling.. that explains it. thx
