Ah sehr interessant...I'm clueless as to how I should revise


Learning mark schemes is by far the best thing to do because they do very similar questions each year and they have the exact same answers and this way you also know how to word your answers

I wrote In situ, I thought ex situ was what they'd already done?


youre probably right. I don't know biology.

Sounds good :smile: I said do more readings between the values 0.2 and 0.3 to determine the concentration of sucrose where the change in mass is zero rather than plot a calibration curve. Do u think this would be accepted?


I said that too, IDK if its worthy of the marks?

I wrote same as you. Ex Situ..

Ohh damn I didnt know you had to convert it into cm :frown: Thanks anyway


Lmao. I didn't know HOW to convert it! I absolutely forgot about the conversion rates.......
Was the question on ventricular sistole 0.2-0.3 right?

That's what I got 😊

Where'd you hear that?

6600% increase in oxygen
1005 cm^3
28% guanine

Were there any other maths questions?


I think I asked you about your a2 maths or something last year on one of the 21C threads

Pretty sure because that is when the pressure increased rapidly
Original post by hshahbaz
can someone predict the grade boundaries?
just want an idea


I'm going to guess 56/70 for an A but it's been less than 80% in the past... the questions were more approachable this time though IMO

Was that the 2nd option, B? I think I did that too

How are two polynucleotides in DNA held together:

- Adenine pairs to Thymine, Cytosine pairs to Guanine
- 2 Hydrogen bonds between A and T, 3 Hydrogen bonds between G and C
- A purine bonds to a pyramidine

THis is what i put for that question


Surely you'd have to mention complementary base pairing.
Did anyone put the hinge region for the antibody MCQ?

I mentioned anti-parallel strands as well

Would around 53-55 be an A? I don't know how much the grade boundaries are going to shift but i feel like a lot of people found it easy..


doubt it will be higher than 56
