General Thoughts: Science (8 Viewers)

[invisibleears]

Yeah, hopefully band 5/6. But pretty unsure after that 7 mark question.. Too geo-ey for my liking.

 

[Entity]

I got alot of C's in the second and 3rd column
and alot of A's in the first column

Yeahp same here. I got like 4 C's in a row then 4 D's in a row in the second column, but im assuming one of those D's were wrong.

 

[mizz_a]

im pretty sure 1 and 3 is the answer

what are your expected marks?
should get 90+ atleast

btw writing the last answer in point form would have been better imo.
i just mentioned about the negative impact of fossil fuels, positive and negative of alternative sources, concluded

is it just me or were there quite a lot of Cs
i hate it when that happens

yeah. and D's. hardly any B's.
and i had like ABC then another ABC but they all looked right to me

aligning? wtF!

does SC really align?

 

[silence--]

aligning? wtF!

?
yeah, it happens according to cem

Usually, like half the state gets under 50, but the Board Of Studies wants to show that the students that are being produced under the current education scheme is smart and not retarded. So the marks are aligned so when the marks are reported, only like 0.5% of the state gets are mark under 50 and the rest of the state are pushed up dramatically.

I thought it was just school grade (A, B, C, D, E) and exam mark which aren't linked? Because I've really been slacking off this year but went good in the SC...

Oh kewl! So I don't get marked down for slacking off and going to a shit school?

I'm sorry if this is off topic but DAMN your sig is AWESOME.

thanks
glad you like it
rofl keep an eye on my sig. gonna have a new pwnage gif like every 2 weeks.
i are have no life

alot of A's in the first column

omg same
it was more freaky with english..got consecutive A, b, c, d TWO times
gg i fail


o ye
what did you guys get about the flowchart. natural selection thingy.
i wrote: 1. only the beneficial mutations continue with the process, other die out. 2. only those with the variation survive to mate, decrease in numbers of others 3. favorable characteristics now dominate 4.repeats
or something like that...

 

[Mudkip94]

Oh and what did you guys put for bodily coordination? I put nervous system sends signals and endocrine system (hormones) control and regulate bodily functions. I think I'm wrong though...

Yeah, my last one is kind of like repeat as well, but in words that make it sound smarter than just 'repeat'.

 

[FTW]

! oh no... I had consecutive a,b,c,d once and 2 consecutive d,c,b,a's

 

[Zamie]

?
yeah, it happens according to cem

This is when they place the papers ontop of each other and check if they match??

If so thats not fair at all.

Basically the same as you. I loved how it said you didnt have to use all the boxes XD

Oh and what did you guys put for bodily coordination? I put nervous system sends signals and endocrine system (hormones) control and regulate bodily functions. I think I'm wrong though...

You're pretty much right although I hope you had more detail.

nope, the SC mark is only from the exam mark.
The school assessments are shown separately from A - E.

 

[Amogh]

check out cems post
she explains this quite clearly

this is what i got out of my teacher
bos thinks 88 should be band 6
all 88s go up to 90
same happens for other marks

OH. MY. GOD. IM GOING TO KILL THE BOS COORDINATOR! When i saw that question, i was like "Hey, Endocrine and Central Nervous System." Then i saw the question saying to use source B and i was like hang on a minute... I asked the BOS person and they said that I was to use the Source.

So now i have an answer with the digestive and the nervous system. -__-

I put:
1. some species adapt differently
2. better adapted can kill better or hide from predators better
3. better adapted wipe out worse adapted lower species or starve out predators
4. better adapted survive to reproduce.

Oh that one was extremely weird.
It was part b) of question 61 i believe and it said above "Please refer to Source A for the next question". I did CNS but then risked a mark by just doing digestive which was in source B.

Yep i did same thing, perhaps we are right?
