Last six marker you needed to mention about extensions and flexions at the knee and adduction and abduction of the leg because of the muscles, ie quadriceps and hamstring(mention these are an antagonistic pair and which one is the antagonist at each point and how gluteal muscles and abdominals move the leg from back to front , you basically just had to do a step by step of what each muscle was doing, you also had to mention the joint names like hinge joint or ball and socket, I've probably missed a load but if I carried on I would have to write my 6 marker!(could of also mentioned gastrocnemius to flex the foot up to kick the ball)

This is good but there is no abduction or addiction as the legs don't move away from the centre line of the body. Just say that the hamstring causes flexion and the quadriceps cause extension. You could also talk about the insertion and origin of the muscles you talk about and also how the skeletal system allows for movement, support and protection.

I talked about antagonistic pairs and joints and the skeletal system and how that aids movement - I hope that's right...

I've need 60 for an overall A* - I'm not sure if I got it but I think I defo got an A... hopefully!!

You only need 60/80 UMS to get an A* overall. That's not the same as needing 60 marks in the exam. For example, on last year's grade boundaries, you only needed 54/80 in the exam to get 60/80 UMS. It all depends where they set the boundaries as they change every year depending on students' performance. It's also possible you'd need more than 60 marks in the exam to get 60/80 UMS if it was an-ultra easy paper with high grade boundaries.

If we got 49/50 in practical, how much do we need in theory to get the A*

Based on last year's grade boundaries you'd need the same as if you'd got 50/50 in the practical as both 49/50 and 50/50 gave you 120/120 UMS. Last year you'd have needed 54/80 in the exam to get an A*.

For the interval question i think i got it wrong-It said how interval training is used and i said for a 10000m runner the training is low in intensity and will last longer

for sprinter i said. he would have a higher intensity in training and will last for a smaller duration

I think its wrong? what was the answer

Also what did you say for the priority
question

Based on last year's grade boundaries, 49/50 gives you 120/120 UMS (I know this may sound strange but the reason for this is that there is a full UMS 'cap' that is worked out by adding the difference between the A* and A grade boundaries onto to the A* boundary). Last year 45/50 was an A and 47/50 was an A* so the full UMS cap (i.e. the mark that gets you 120/120 UMS is at 49/50).

So assuming this stays the same, with 120 UMS you need 20/80 UMS to get a grade B (as you need 140/200 UMS overall). To get 20/80 UMS last year on the exam you needed to score 20/80 marks on the exam.

To get an A you need 160/200 UMS overall which means you need 40/80 UMS on the exam and you needed 40/80 marks on the exam to get this last year.

To get an A* you need 180/200 UMS overall which means you need 60/80 UMS on the exam and you needed 54/80 marks on the exam to get this last year.

Actually it's more like 20!

Worked it out.. I think it's about 37 marks which is rather good :smile:

even though I still probably failed

Scrap the above post - I was referring to Ollie Moseley's question, not yours.

How many marks out of 50 did you get in your practical and I'll work out the exact number of marks you need based on last year's grade boundaries?
