Title: Biology Paper 42
Post by: Gaz on June 04, 2010, 08:37:35 am

What do you think the threshold will be? Please do not discuss the paper yet.

I feel it would be around 65 for an A. Overall an easy paper with some tricky questions.

iw was a very comfortable paper, alot of repeats. I MEAN ALOT OF REPEATED QUESTIONS. so i dont think it would be that low maybe good 70+ would be the grade threshhold. overall good though

Section B is almost always a repeat.

Yes. It was relatively easy. Tricky in determining trends and so on.
Gaz.. PM me for discussion. I did the paper 5 hours ago.

By the way Chem is also 2 hours.

Having a 2hrs papers doesnt mean it'll be of the same difficulty. They'll probably add more questions.
