Well according to the mc answers posted I did well in that, but I think I probably did pretty bad in the rest of the paper lol so you're not the only one.

In this online community, yes.
In the real world, no.

Good, lol. Cause I go to a pretty decent school (top 90 ranking) and a lot of people today were saying that it was pretty hard..... didn't help when our option topic (genetics) had really gay questions

Agree with Kew.

But for me, it was more of an unsolicited oral penetration than an all out rape.

I liked the way the exam tested logical thinking in regards to Biology. It also made it possible to bullshit an answer if you really were stuck, lol. The Board were maybe being nice this year, lol.
Most my class left really early, but they're all failing anyway...

Yeah I found the same sort of thing.

The paper this year was different to past papers. For people that studied their syllabus to the last dot point it was a bad change, for people like me who have very patchy knowledge because of a combination of bad teaching and lack of a positive work ethic, it was a very, very good change :D

If I had received a paper from the last 4 years it would have screwed me over soemthing fierce. I was really saved by the board of studies.

Is this fair? Absolutely not. Can I/anyone else do anything about it? No.

Such is the HSC and all its flaws.

A lot of people seem to finish Biology exams early, i had an hour left for trials, thirty minutes for this and half an hour + for past papers.
Interesting

What can your tutor teach you that you can't teach urself in bio????

I had 1 hr left for the bio HSC......but I only had 30 mins for the trials. I wonder why i finished it so early. May be I left something out ????? But i am sure i did everything as I checked through the paper twice.

Maybe you didn't write a lot for the 25 marker on an Australian scientist
