#79505 Confused about the marks?

Posted by AM4R on 18 May 2006 - 11:07 AM in Physics

Usually in school when we do exams etc we say an A is usually around 70%ish but I was looking at the 2005 boundaries and it says to get a low (Band 2) A it is only 59%. So does that mean sat the boudaries stayed the same for thia year and i got say 65%ish I would get an A on my certificate?

well hopefully the mark for an A will go down. I am getting a feeling that everybody though this was harder than last years.

Hopefully!

Weird papers because some questions wre easy but others really hard!

Do you think they will lower the pass mark or the mark to get an A? What was the mark to get an A last year?

So did you find the paper hard or easy?

What do you think the cut offs will be for A's, B's, C's & D's? (taking into account last years)

Would somebody be able to give me their answer for Question 3, Part b from Paper II please? I thought there was a mistake when I saw the question, but perhaps I'm wrong.

i couldnt get the answer to part 3 (b) either!

i subbed in the answer i got to part (a) into the equation given in part (b) then tried to do the discriminant and then make it equal to zero but got sumthin like 5 instead?!?

Q3B i got Q (4,-3) but probaly wrong

same i think thats what i got!

I think i got that too

do you think they'll lower the mark to get an A instead of 76%

its ok if you get a negative because the area is under the x axis. You just turn it positive.

Well Done! What have you got left then? I've got Chem and Computing, Chem is gonna be impossible!

This is one of the summary sheets I have written for myself and thought I would share it with you

In equilibrium reactions
* low temperature favours the exothermic reaction
* high pressure favours the reaction where less gas molecules are formed

If in an equation you see H O (g) you need to be aware that the temp. must be above 100 degrees as it it normally liquid !!

Water and Ammonia are polar (although I think they shouldn't be!!)

All ionic compunds are solid at room temperature

"Like dissolves like" - why alcohol and water mix (both polar covalent) and why oil (covalent) and water(polar covalent) don't mix.

Kevlar is an aromatic polyamide and contains hydrogen bonding

Giant covalent Network- Silicon dioxide(sand/glass), diamond

All fats are esters

One mole of any gas, under the same temperature and pressure, has the same mole of any other gas.

Volumes of gases are proportional to the number of moles present.

Nice one Pammy!
