Vectors? oh alright, is there much integration in first year maths? What else have you covered?

You can have a look at that yourself

question: For our business studies in-class assessment on financial ratio, I lost 4 marks because the teacher marked it wrong and I went and had a chat with him and I got 4 marks for it and my mark became 47.5/50. Highest mark was 48/50 but the teacher marked everyone as correct for the wrong answer which means the person who got 48/50 should only be 44/50 because the ratio is either right or wrong. The issue is though, everyone got their paper back so what happens now? Do I just come 2nd or the person who came first and everyone else lose 4 marks? I totally forgot to ask the teacher about it.

It's up to your teacher, in my test I lost a half mark but my teacher gave me a full back to compensate for others not getting it taken off. I'd definitely suggest bringing it up with your teacher again, rank matters!

Pretty sure your teacher would feel bad having to deduct all those marks off everyone else though. It's his fault.

I dont know if he would though? I actually feel bad for him tbh but I do care about those 4 marks coz it makes a huge difference and it was worth 25%

I probably would've let it go in this situation. His fault for marking properly but in reality if he had to deduct everyone else's marks that would make him feel worse. (And you might be hated lmao)

Can someone support this?

I don't want to get too excited too early.

Oh yeah I meant first year uni physics, not first year uni maths soz katebate

 

[eyeseeyou]

Maybe eyeseeyou meant to say first-year Physics, rather than Maths? Because I remember he made a previous comment saying this before (about uni Physics).

Yeah I meant first year uni physics not maths. IIRC I mentioned it in the changes to maths syllabus thread

That's one thing that i wish i could do at my school, look at the top of the cohort and be like "yeh they're going to SR"
How are they essays? Coz i always wondered how SR essays are like, as in are they more verbose or insightful

haha well I had a look at a few and from what I see is that they basically have impeccable expression and great clarity. But the biggest factor imo is that their analysis and ideas/themes are not what 99% of the cohort is writing about LOL. Their analysis is out of this realm, coming up with their own ideas, themes and everything.

Wow the pun.

But that wouldn't have been any sort of amusement to me anyway
