My maths teacher said it was to save time/money because instead of getting people to mark it they can just do it with a computer

So is 2U only out of 100 then too?
Oh well same content, different set up and we'll just not have the rough idea at all of where the cut offs for bands will be.

The thing I absolutely hate about MC is that some people on very hard questions who suck, guess and get it right - they don't really deserve the mark. Very good student on the very hard question might no be able to do it either but guess and get it wrong.
I don't like how it comes down to luck if it's a hard question.

^I don't like that if the MC questions are "hard", that you would not get the partial marks you normally would if you screw up a step along the way.
I wonder when the MC comes in, if the raw mark for Band 6 will go up?

It's 10 (10 marks). Those were just sample questions, to get the gist of the types of questions you could be asked.
