I need to get an A in this (At least 80%)...no I need to get over 95%. but I don't think I will, since I haven't revised. I'm panicking so much :frown:

Don't worry. To get an A you only usually need around 65-70% of the raw marks. Most of your marks will come from HSW and application questions.

What will be, will be. I'm taking it too. I need AAA* at the end of A2 if I have any chance of following my career path. I've revised like a mad person, but even if you haven't, just breathe, write down what you know. The world will still be here tomorrow!

Good Luck Everyone!!

Don't count on it! Grade boundaries have varied from 63% to about 75% on last papers. It's decided after exam is done.
I messed the last 2 questions

so bye bye 10 marks :biggrin:

My class found it hard.

The induced fit enzyme model and I screwed up the emphysema one, I just realised I was talking fibrosis, but hey I got the PTB one.

Reckon I've done alright though, last years June was easier, and I got a C on that. :frown:
That was such a silly exam! too many bloody 'suggest' questions and nothing on the heart haha. fml.

It still wasn't that bad I guess, but was totally not what I expected!

At least I like emphysema and TB.
