I'd say about 40 for an A and 31 for a B


I'd reckon around 29 for a B and 36/37 for an A with A* being 45. Definitely lower than last year though

Are you sure you put braket?
How did I get 0.6%?


I got 0.67% (2d.p)
This is old spec I assume?

I said because girls drank more wine, alcopops and spirits


The sample was too small and too general. There are many more boys in the world, hence its invalid to say all the boys drink.

Was lichen the right thing to put right at the end???

@waagh Yh i thinkI lost a mark for putting maggots for the very end question, even though I said they tend to grow in dirty water. Do you think they will be looking for "red-tailed" as i genuinely couldn't remember this in the exam

@laurantaylor No lichen is wrong, because it/s a plant.

No it's because 12% of the boys they surveyed didn't drink at all surely?
For n7, I think the answer is something like: sample too small; only about 15 years old, hence 14 or younger may not drink.
