This was in my trials :O

And and i reckon a long response on Epidemiology is due? Our school does 2 trials and both of ours had them.

What was long response for CSSA?
WTF? ur school does two trials????

lol

for some reason

when I see your name or post of yours, I just can't help but laugh
Not sure if insult or compliment...

Okay, so another thing. 2009 HSC paper "sample answers" seem a bit too simple and easy. I mean, are those samples answers for a band 4? Because clearly if they give full marks to those answers, or almost full marks, their marking guidelines can't be THAT tough...

they gave some paragraphs to read (well 3 paragraphs lol or something like that) and you had to justify the introduction of the HPV vaccine for boys (8 marks)

Exactly! There was a question worth 5 marks and they had like 2 lines on it, as opposed to how much I answered.... I know they tell us to keep it concise but, m8 that's not concise that's like a compact summary.

I think this year's paper might be based on skills and pracs because chemistry barely had any of it and they normally test them in either chem or bio. So learn your validity and reliability factors people!!! Those things always steals me of my marks haha. I do hope it's on maintaining a balance though :) personally my favorite topic
