Indeed. I got that one wrong, because I'm an idiot, heh.SMFHS said:person one cant be a carrier cause its male so the male has to be either not affected or affected ..not inbetwen
In some ways C is also a valid answer, but D is the most obvious by far.Takuto said:how is 6 c...
lol
just because temp of cage is less makes it an endotherm?
thats horrible, lol
you could choose d just by eliminating the others
Takuto said:the temperature of the cage isnt exactly the same as the ectotherm, ectotherm just rises and falls with ambient temperature, not keeps it exactly the same as it
the only observation he gave was that it was lower..
doesnt prove anything
Same here about that antigen question >_> Bastards tricked me.cccclaire said:oh fuck. thats such a trick question =[
14/15 and such a stupid mistake too =[ what a shame.
SAME...and now I have a headache.dolbinau said:Yes!! This happens after EVERY exam. I go to BOS and get paranoid LOL.
Wehmer said:Same here about that antigen question >_> Bastards tricked me.
"As C says that the fact that defined it as purely endothermic was that it was a lower inner temperature to that of the ambient environment, it can't be right, as an ectothermic animal would also exist at a slightly lower inner temperature that that of the ambient environment (as an ectothermic animal existing in a 40 degree celcius environment wouldn't have a body temperature of exactly 40 unless it had been there for hours, and it's physiologically impossible for an ectothermic animal to have a body temperature higher than the ambient temperature, assuming the ambient temperature remains constant)."
Yeah. *shakes fist at BoS*cccclaire said:Oh man the question is worded just to trick people "what is the ROLE of antigens" like, when you talk about antigens you don't exactly think of it as a role. It's blatantly there as a trick, which is sooo annoying.

congrats =]danz90 said:Woot woot high 5 to us from the 'nexttttt' thread
15/15!
Yeh not too sure about the DNA fingerprinting butterflies, but losing such an easy mark is such a bummer.midifile said:dw claire.
you are still pretty much guaranteed a band 6 coz you did well in the rest of the paper
=]
really good, straightforward.midifile said:congrats =]
howd you find the rest of the paper
Pretty happy overall. As far as I know I did okay for short answers, I may have lost 1 or 2 for the 8 marker, but it just depends on their marking criteria and what they accept.danz90 said:really good, straightforward.
i reckon 53+/60 for short answers, including any little possible screwups or not enough detail bla bla. but i feel really confident about ALL my answers.
and for my communication option, should be 20+/25 for sure.
So hoping for raw in high 80s
And thus... band 6!!!
How about you?
Seriously, if Ms Leibman said it was okay, im sure the BOS will toocccclaire said:Yeh not too sure about the DNA fingerprinting butterflies, but losing such an easy mark is such a bummer.
I swear to god if I get an 89 I will fucking kill the board of studies for their poorly worded stupid trick question.
yeeah the 8 marker was a little ambiguous. i reckon maybe 6/8 for me (5 if they mark really strict).midifile said:Pretty happy overall. As far as I know I did okay for short answers, I may have lost 1 or 2 for the 8 marker, but it just depends on their marking criteria and what they accept.
My option (genetics) was a bit strange. I couldve gotton like 12/25 without even studying for it at all because there was a 5 marker and a 7 marker that you could pretty much bullshit.
But like the blood question, I think it all depends on the marking criteria.
Yeah.. Im hoping for an overall band 6 too.
Really? I thought this years paper was harder than last years.danz90 said:yeeah the 8 marker was a little ambiguous. i reckon maybe 6/8 for me (5 if they mark really strict).
i think this year they're gonna mark harder, since it was an easier paper.
Well this year's paper had a lot of Maintaining a Balance - a topic I like and know heaps from. Although, I reckon they're definitely marking harder this year, cause of the easier questions (well at least in my opinion).midifile said:Really? I thought this years paper was harder than last years.
But yeah. I really just depends on what they were looking for, but like if you lose marks, Im sure half the state would lose marks too =]
