You can get a mark for Placebo, but only if you link it to the context.


No surprisingly I've seen just placebo being given, it makes no sense linking the word placebo to the context as it is a self-explanatory term.

Exactly what I thought. :biggrin:



yeah but it is an average number bpm, for EXAMPLE if the answer was 1.7 beats per second, you would look at me strangely, however if i told you give me the answer in beats per 10 seconds, what would you say ?? 17 beats. get my point ?

my example is stupid, but i hope u get the point, it's an average !

They also make you pay for you to have your paper returned! The school already pays a lot of money to enter you into the exam, yet they have crappy examiners who make mistakes everywhere!
For the vaccine one i wrote about memory cells and talked about how it would tackle the pathogen before harm etc, would i get atleast 1mark? I didnt evaluate \:

I go to a private school and I have to pay for the exam myself and then when you ask for your paper return, they send you a ****ing photocopy.

do you think the could push the grade boundaries to 50/60 to get an A
on the last question i wrote about facilitated diffusion, protein carriers in the lipid bilayer and stuff about the sodium-potassium pump, but I FORGOT VILLI. fml. although, i had already done 2 exams beforehand so i suppose for my only major mistake its not too bad....
