Biology EMPA

Hi everyone, I was just wondering as an AS student how any A2's did last year as I have my practical this week and am bricking it! Does anyone think they may ask to calculate standard deviation?

I have it this week (resitting it). It can't hurt you to know how to do standard deviation, you will use it a lot in A2 EMPAs :smile:

My EMPA last year for AS used standard deviation if i remember correctly

Remember the first part os all about collecting your data and you can go back and make changes next les son. I have to generalise bit remember the transport of water through the xylem tissue , what are the processes involved? Don't stress, plenty of time yo answer the questions do fuel in rough tonorrow. Ok, going yo go and buy a green crunchy curved veggie mm 😉

Hi

For task 2 of A2 or the AS bio empa
Is there any questions on task 2
Or is it just the statistical test?

A2 is just the stats test and interrupting it.
