I always thought we were supposed to be concise.... :oops: 💀
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.

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 am pretty sure that was A as I got that as well bc I remember my last was select the recombinant organism

I think it was A because im pretty sure A and B all started with 'pick the vector and original' but I picked A because it had select the recombinant organism as the end bit

i didnt think it was A, because I think one of those middle ones were talking about the host rather than the vector so it should've been further towatds the end??? i cant even remember it very well tho so idk. I was conflicted between B and D personally.

was probably B then I just remember I was choosing on A or B and then I chose one of them but I did what @Unovan did

How
isnt 1 D?
Wasnt that the cochlear implant one and D was how it stimulates the auditory nerve which they do?
Unless its a joke
I sincerely hope it is because I chose D after crossing out B then crossing out D and deciding to choose D in the end
SOMEONE PLZ CONFIRM FOR THIS ELSE ALL MY STRIKETHROUGH EFFORT WILL BE WASTED 😭😭

How was the MCQ? any super hard questions in the exam?
All mcq were straightforward but one or two a bit ambiguous.

No hard questions per se but it was concentrated with 4-5 markers so difficult to grab full marks in all questions.

A few oddly worded questions and a lot more even in the content:stimulus ratio than last yesr
