That exam was ********
Original post by kirstybecs
i nearly cried when the sign test didn't come up since our teacher was adamant it was going to since it was new on the spec and she drilled it into us and then......let down by aqa (also psychology and the economy i was gutted didnt come up cause thats easy)


They're probably saving it for next years paper. Well I hope so anyways

I'm sure you haven't failed.
As for the unofficial mark scheme, I think it's still being created, so just hold on whilst all the questions and possible answers have been gathered up :smile:

I didnt talk about vicarious reinforcement, identification. I talked about attention, retention, reproduction and motivation which is THE SAME THING but everyone put vicarious reinforcement and all

Thread has been updated just want to say a big thank you to everyone that made the unofficial mark scheme.

anyways that exam was a killer for me. hated it :frown:
Personally don't think that mark scheme is any good, usually lists more points and anything relevant that's correct is usually given a mark. I think I did pretty well but if I go off that mark scheme then it drops to an average score

Actually it's not the same thing, two very separate points :smile:

i don't like the unofficial markscheme..... i did not talk about that for the 12 marker, i talked about influence of inheritance, moreover a sit said to refer to the conversation i thought there was some ao2 also..... can't trust this.
Would i lose marks for not referring to the conversation on the 12 mark question??
can you say that Jerry imitates his brother and jerry can be seen as a " role model" is that ok ??

I don't like it either! I just found the link though, that's allπŸ˜… and same, I actually quoted some of the conversation, so hopefully we'll get credited for that on the official mark scheme.
According to the unofficial markschemes I got 119/144-82%-what would that be? :h:
