Title: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !! (After 24 Hours PLEASE)
Post by: Q80BOY on May 22, 2009, 06:33:05 pm
hey guys,

if u have any questions regarding ur past exams e.g. Physics Paper 6,

u can post them here ONLY

please dont forget that Also, due to differences in GMT, examination timings will be different in countries around the world. In order to ensure no malpractice occurs, discussion of examination papers shall not be allowed until 24 hours AFTER the paper is over.

thanks

That's not the greatest moderating i have ever seen and certainly not the greatest management either, to make every possible memeber a moderator is something which is unique but at the same time creates too much congestion.

One big reason:
12 sticky topics? Sticky topics are made to inform, announce the latest additions not to accumulate every other topic into one.. 5 is enough

My advice:
1 sticky for SCIENCES and 1 for COMMERCE or a sub-forum in IGCSE section for individual sujbects maybe

Result:
everything will look rational yeah

Afterall the moderators are pride of themselves thinking the sticky parade would save bandwidth at a great extent, honestly its not saving bandwidth its killing members

During the summer or after the summer it doesn't matter what other improvements will be done but in the meanwhile the forum's current condition is frankly messed up and need to be sorted out
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: sweetsh on May 22, 2009, 09:48:04 pm
Why are you all concerned about the sticky topics?! Thats not a big big deal, there are their first days of moderating and they are learning! They are great and everything will get improved.

so we're gonna discuss CIE, edexcel, etc. English, bio, chem, physics, economics, business studies, french, and all their individual papers in one note? Umm I think this is categorizing too much-individual threads for them would be much better.  Yes you can have many threads; don't have many that talk about the same thing like 3 bio paper 6s but there is the search button where you can search for the thread you want to talk about first.

Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: pisecs on May 23, 2009, 04:50:54 pm
i took the FLE~ it was really easy
for the first section i was hoping for a persuasive letter or a newspaper article or something cuz i really hate scripts
but this one was quite easy, i chose the 2nd guy(forgot his name, lolz fish memory =P) as the finalist
and the second section i chose the descriptive one, it was 3b, i think
with describing a group of ppl at a table, eating and speaking and stuff
many guys from my class chose the argumentative one with the graffiti, lolz

i was so happy when i saw the topic from the descriptive part
cuz it was really similar to one from a past paper
which was about describing a group of people in a library/museum/...

i never go for the narative writings except if it's given by our teacher as an assignment
cuz it takes hours for me to come up with an idea~~

but i just realised that i spelt a word wrong! >.<
i wrote corpulant instead of corpulent!! will it affect much?!

in bio p6, wa was da similarity & diff. btween potato & garlic??????????????
wait, were we asked bout de cut or da full parts?????????????
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: Shogun on May 27, 2009, 05:41:03 pm
we were asked on the cut. and the similarity i wrote is tht they r irregular in shape. the differnece is tht the stem is visible in the garlic whereas in the  potato its not. the garlic has segments or "cloves" where as the potatos' surface is smooth.

and another similarity is tht both have stored starch, but i dont think thts a visible feature
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!

I wrote something abt it is genereated by signal whenever any device need attention ............ and display message on screen....
and abt pilot......i wrote incase of system failure........
ie.... i wrote....... i m not sure whether it is write........

Post by: ~Mimi~ on May 28, 2009, 04:06:47 pm
lol...ppl on this forum are so funny sumtimes. "pilots r used to fly aeroplane"...hehe. The robots thing was sooooo silly. My answer was llike rlly weird. I ws laughing to myself... hehe. I wrote they cant be used in surgery room for like really complex operations. U noe . heart transplant, brain surgery. The other one was they cant be used in like the battles and wars to fight!?!?!....lol. Dont ask where i got tht frm! First I wrote, cant be sued for sports training, but wasnt so sure. I think this one's a bit more correct though. Atleast like 10-11 Ques. I'd get to part c or d and get stuck. For the flowchart, I got 120 and 1, but my frnds got 5 or 6 and 1. Not sure, didnt have time to check that one or the aeroplane question. It wasn't sooooooo hard for a computer paper, where u usually dunt noe few stuff here and there anyways! But I did find it a bit mutated. Swhat was with all the " recent developments "  questions...uff. And yh...the operating system ques.. What do they mean by "features"???!?!?!??!?!
I wrote the functions...didnt noe wat else 2 write.pilot one... i wrote like urs sarsam....system failure ,etc.And the Interrupt ques. I wrote abt the error like printer out of paper, which is device needs attention....anyways, atleast its over...
"There is no point at this point"............lol
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: sarsam on May 28, 2009, 07:28:08 pm

hi guys
hw was ur geo p2????????
i think it was really bad
wat did they mean by "features of distribution"?
and wat was feature "D"?
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: SAKS10111 on May 29, 2009, 10:54:35 am
hey  :)
i found the geo paper 2 reallyy easy surprisingly
Was Feature D that circle with the kind of spikes around it? Im pretty sure that was a Dam. Features of distribution means the common characteristics of the way that the earthquakes were located. Like the first one, most of them were surrounding Japan on the border. So u just have to find something common to all of them and write that

What did u guys all get as your gradient? i got 1 in 0.0097. and the height as 4650 m
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!

yea, no one saw that one coming lol. I think i got the method right but the answer wrong.. ???
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: SAKS10111 on May 30, 2009, 06:39:00 am
I chose the one in the valleys and on top of the highest land... because i dont think there were any steep slopes
soil erosion- i wrote that the soil on the hills was very sparsely covered with protective vegetation cover and hence vulnerable to being displaced, and that there were very scanty trees in some places (due to possible deforestation), hence no nutrients being recycled in the soil by the tree. All this leads to soil erosion
oh and can someone please tell me what the CORRECT gradient answer is haha because im so confused
lol i kinda just winged everything.. was the soil erosion one right?
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: Kasa on May 30, 2009, 09:21:45 am
Everyone has different answers for the gradient..so we don't know which one's right!

I wrote the same thing as you did for soil erosion, that the steep sides of the hills do not have any trees or plants so there are no roots to protect the soil.
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: Anonymous on May 30, 2009, 09:41:40 am
the correct answer is 103.33333333333333.
Title: Re: Exam Discussion HERE ONLY !!
Post by: sweetie on May 30, 2009, 11:46:36 am
ya i also don think ther were any steep slopes but da area was hilly
could da huts be a feature that encourage soil erosion???????

The thing that's most pissing off is that in all the past papers I did, I got at LEAST 70/80, which is easily an A* in IGCSE, cos thats like an 89%...So i was hoping for the paper to also be good :(

And now, im losing 10 marks already from silly mistakes, and i m quite sure i will lose even more :(

Mistakes i made were unbelievably stupid, and I just hope and pray that I'll get an A* ...

What do you guys think an A* would be?

60/80 or what?

Dont worry man, everyone didnt do great. I mean if u are the smartest in ur class, imagine how everyone else did. The thresholds will be low.. i mean the people on here saying they did well are a small percentage of students who are willing to admit they did well. Trust me, my whole grade did not do well, because the simple truth was..it was a strange paper. Dont beat urself up about it..
And plus..us very competitve smart students often exagerate our mistakess.. :D No worries..
And wont u remind me what the first questipon was again?

wow...geez i dont know how y'all did it :P
i think i got stuck at the stupid questions in the beginning...argh!
what was up with the first question, i have never seen any questions based on that in the past papers... o.O
i agree with u to a 110% the physics ppr sucked for me.....i cried wen i came home..and i am still depressed....if the thresholds arnt low then i will drown myself....and to think tht i am best in physics in class....the ppr was sooooo different.....and soooo difficult...i have never seen anything like it.....u give me hope!!! hehe
+ repp for u!!

Dont worry man, everyone didnt do great. I mean if u are the smartest in ur class, imagine how everyone else did. The thresholds will be low.. i mean the people on here saying they did well are a small percentage of students who are willing to admit they did well. Trust me, my whole grade did not do well, because the simple truth was..it was a strange paper. Dont beat urself up about it..
And plus..us very competitve smart students often exagerate our mistakess.. :D No worries..
And wont u remind me what the first questipon was again?

Omg...i hate saying it but i cried too after the paper, in the car on the way home!!
the first question was how to measure the thickness of the plastic sheet, we had to name the instrument for one mark, and then explain how it's used for 3 marks
yeah exactly, competitive smart students DO exaggerate their mistakes, sheesh that really makes me feel better!!
thanks soooo much!
and yeah our grade didnt like the paper that much either, but dont worry the thresholds will be low and you guys are gonna do awesome! dont bother stressing, it's not worth it! you'll totally make it up in the other two papers!
