geo: the last 2 page question, we didn't touch that topic at all.....so i was completely clueless. a lot of BIG SPACIOUS WRITING and bull for me lol some of the multiple choice were weird coz i hadn't learnt those topics eg urban growth/decline

history : was okay, the last long response was such a relief....!! lol i new the answers off by heart, and it was pretty easy for me

maths: finished just in time was okay though i probly made several stupid errors. btw, that grl runnin to the end of the jetty....i got 5:55am...??? she took 25 min, ???

o well

hey i was just wondering...do they ever scale u DOWN....? that's all i'm scared of. otherwise i'm sure i did okay......
aww pari, remember that geo half yearly notes i posted? there were stuff like EIS and methods of attempting to change the gov decisions eg. lobbying! never mind, don't worry, i myself didn't do that well for the response either :( couldn't remember all the stuff i once knew >.< have a consolation hug from someone who did equally badly *hugz* :p

All our examiners were old people that looked like teachers in our school after 20 years.

ROFL I was so clueless for that question I put "Contaminations" or something like that I can't remember what fitted in those boxes. XD

Talk about lame.

For English I wrote about a girl who had to go and live with her grandmother after her parents died, but it wasn't really revealed until the last paragraph. Meh I just made it up as I went along. :rolleyes: I had no idea what to write about with that editorial thing.

Look. Does your science teacher actually mark the School Certificate, the only problem is my science teacher said it was infectious and they asked what do you call such diseases?
Only 2 types
non-infectious
infectious

I chose infectious. Anyways we will find out later on!!!

lol yeah i think that answer should have been infectious too :D but would contagious work as well? one of my friends put it as that, and i think it should have been fine. what do you guys think?

also, aarrgghh!! i can't believe the answer to that question about living things was environment! :K but shouldn't it be biosphere? shouldn't it? :( i mean, it's all living things, and there are abiotic elements in the environment, so wouldn't it make environment wrong as the answer? oxygen is part of the environment, for example, and it's not a living thing!

Umm..

The truth is that Me and two other people were the only ones that put Environment. Why?
Because the word environment means living things and their SURROUNDINGS. Why would they include, lithosphere and hydrosphere if the answer was biosphere. Biosphere just means the place were living things exist.

I put biosphere because the question said all life on earth.... I dont think all of earth is an environment an environment means life in a specific type of area.

The question asked for the term which described all life on earth, the ocean/sea and life in it etc...

Encarta Dictionary definitions:

Bioshphere: planet Earth and its life: the whole area of Earth's surface, atmosphere, and sea that is inhabited by living things

Environment: surrounding influences: all the external factors influencing the life and activities of people, plants, and animals
The question did not ask how it life functioned or for the term to describe life in a specific location/area.
So the answer is BIOSPHERE!!! YOUR WRONG KIDO_1

What did everyone put for that question about the Toothpaste ad? I think that was such a lame excuse for a science question. I didn't know so I think I chose "because it's a health care product" which was totally wrong. I can't remember what the other choices were.
