P1 opinions

Greetings,

What did people think of that exam? I for one found it ridiculously easy, especially the six marker: kinetic theory o.O Additionally, I felt that some marks were just thrown at us.

What's your opinions?

Yeah that was too easy. Shame there was nothing on redshift/blueshift, the 6-marker and the various 4-markers were nice though.


Agreed. I enjoyed the fridge question out of all the 4 marker's, that was quite a fun one to answer.
less likely to be damaged by strong weather conditions, ed wind

I put that it was infrared radiation. What did you get the answer for the question on biscuits: suggest two ways in which cookies turn brown.

Some of the questions were worded wierdly but I found them okay overall. I'm glad considering I did no revision I forgot about this exam haa

For the fridge, I put "manufacturing process of the new fridge could be damaging to the environment as polluting gases could be released"
And Infrared Radiation inside the oven.
more power and slower through the oven

could you put microwaves for the oven one?

Yes, I got it right. Thanks. That means I would get 100% on the paper. What do you think you will get, Alpha Nick.

I argued it's to avoid any damage to them.

I put less visual pollution. Not sure if it'll be creditted on the markscheme :frown: fingers crossed

I think that it meant cables were less susceptible to damage through harsh weather conditions.




aghhh not the 90% A* boundary :frown:


So my answer: "To avoid damage." may gain me the mark? Or is it too vague?

I imagine that may grab you a mark. I personally put: "May need more frequent maintenance due to improved technology."

This is the only advantage of underground cables that my (AQA Official) revision guide states. This is what I put and I'm sure it'll be in the mark scheme.
