    Division of Marking in Elective Subjects

    do you know how they scale electives? because wouldn't the process be slightly different, e.g is your forensic chemistry option part of the exam (in Chemistry :p) scaled against all people sitting the chem exam or just those who did forensic chem? Same question really for all subjects that...

    Focus and Directrices of rectangular hyperbolae

    well x^2 - y^2 = a^2 is x= +/- a/rt2 where a^2/2 = c^2 so for the xy = c^2 its just that rotated 45, therefore x + y = +/- a

    Raw Vs Aligned

    Err what I got from this exam is that you there was an increase in data analysis type questions which is maybe to combat mofos who just memorise excel.

    The big ugly AAS reliability/validity question

    Sox and Nox

    Yes and by the same deductive logic the number of aids cases will rise. You see when the acid rain hits my supra it'll wear away the Duco and this will affect my (and other sickunts) ability to pull chicks. Thus I will have to turn to fellow male tarnished-supra drivers for sexual...

    Silly But confusing Q - haber process

    there's no singular answer because each haber vessel is unique. the idea you must understand is that heats are lowered (relatively - industrially these temps are "low") to a stage where forward equilibrium/yield is favoured WITHOUT making the reaction go too slow because of a lack of heat...
