Just got 8.8 (28/35) on S1 2010. Did anyone else find that paper relatively easier?

Yes mate. I did it with distractions and got 7 point something.

However, I think I (we) may just be naturally good at the section since a lot of people struggle with it. The worst I've scored is ~5.7, which was on one of the harder tests (also the first one I did) and I did it in an environment which was nowhere near exam conditions.

Question
1 You must be honest and open and act with integrity.
UK General Medical Council, Good Medical Practice 2006
Explain what is meant by the above statement. Why might honesty, openness and integrity be
important in a good doctor? Under what circumstances might a good doctor be justified in being
less than perfectly honest or open in the course of their professional practice?

Spoiler

Would really appreciate it if someone could give me some feedback. Thanks :smile:

Hi how did you convert your mark to the BMAT scale?

the specification states that we need to know how to work out solubility-how do you do that?!

When you open the answer key, the first page has answers and the second page has the conversion scale.

When did you start practising?

I saw that too! I searched it on Google and it came up with grams per cm3 and stuff. So I'm guessing you find how much of a solid dissolves into a solution and work out the solubility e.g from 100g of solid only 25 grams dissolved into 500ml of water. So I'm guessing 25/500 -> 0.05 g/cm3

If this is wrong just ignore it lol but I think it seems right

Can someone help me with these questions please?

5.The longest train has to be the one that comes out last. Use this information and the speed distance time formulas.

15. There is only one letter that is due directly East of another letter, thus F = Wellbank and E = Ruilick. Aultviach is North of Ruilick, hence A = Aultviach. Now, the only letter left that is directly South of another is D, which is South of B. Thus D = Rheindown and B = Clashandarran. Only C and G are left to be named. G has to be Beauly, as Beauly has to be South and West of Windyhill, thus C is Windyhill.

Hope that helps. :smile:

C

Consider: (3x^-1/3)³
Multiply the powers inside and outside the bracket so you 27x^-1and then multiply that by 3x, giving you 81 as 3 x 27 = 81 and X^-1x X¹= X⁰= 1.

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * m * v^2
Work done = F * d

1/2 * 0.05 * 300^2 = 2250J

2250 / 0.6 = 3750N = 3.75x10^3 N => Answer B
