I think you had to test at a variety of concentrations and then draw a graph plotting mass change against concentration. Using a line of best fit, find the concentration at which there is no overall mass change- that was the concentration inside the egg.


Well i got that completely wrong then... whoops

What did you write?

I got 78 marks on the Biology specimen 1 (set 2). That was a 9. I am predicting for this exam-
80-85- 9
70-75- 8
65-70- 7
55-60- 6
40-50- 5
30-35- 4


Good job!!!

I wrote that you should measure the change in mass for each egg and whichever one has the highest change in mass would've had the highest concentration of solution inside. oh well, nothing can be done now anyways.

those grade boundaries seem really good for me if that's the case - good chance i would've gotten a 9!

oh - that's a good thread! i think i got 80% minimum so nice

Simple way to get grade 6 minimum:

REVISE MARK SCHEME.


3 marker question: 3 simple logical sentences.
4 marker question: 4 simple logical sentences.
5 marker question: 5 simple logical sentences
6 marker question: 6 simple logical sentences

it is as simple as that.

I wish it was that simple XD The sentences still have to correct with the question otherwise you will get no marks so you still gotta do a **** ton of revision.

Dude the carrot question was so confusing, it’s gonna be a meme soon judging by the amount of tweets of it.

sounds awful im glad it wasn’t on the separate science paper...what did it actually ask?

Oh ok thank you
I was really stressing that I had missed a questions

It was something along the lines of ‘why doesn’t the mass of the boiled carrot increase?’. It basically came after a question about the osmosis Practical, they replaced the potato cylinders in the practical with freaking carrots! It’s conpletely outrageous!

they replaced our osmosis one with eggs i think boiled carrots wouldve been a bit nicer
