IGCSE Sciences (Combined, Co-ord and Triple)

Hi!

I'm so nervous for the Science exams, anyone else doing their Physics 6 tomorrow?

M
yeah im doing it!
Good luck :smile: which is your best / worst science?
How did people find the Physics 6 today? Biology 6 tomorrow :\

Which one, with the ratio and different Voltages/currents?

With regards to his theory the results did support it (you could have said no and still got full marks)

how do you know? - i said yes because the values were close but not exact possibly due to human error

do u remember all the questions?

for the ration question were we supposed to give a value or as a ratio?

They were within limits of experimental accuracy (usually 1 to 2 units in measuring but it varies between what you think is too close or not)

Yes, the majority of them, not word for word but I had a lot of time to check over it

I got confused as it said the graph showed T squared, meaning we'd have had to draw from 1.41415. But, the experiment only went up to 10s I think but 5 squared is 25, so it wouldn't have been relevant to the question - plus with the graph so small it would have been inaccurate to draw. so I worked it out from the 2.0 mark at l = 0.49

ah how many marks can you drop per paper and still get an a* ?

I'm not sure, I think 34 / 40 is an A* or something, not sure
Plus, the papers are weighted differently.

Paper 6 is only 20% of your overall grade, Paper one is 30% and Paper 3 is 50%

where did u find that value?
Does anyone on here do Co-ordinated Science for CIE IGCSE? If so, how did you find Paper 6 today?

I heard it was quite hard

The syllabus states it :smile:

Paper 1 = 30% overall grade
Paper 2 OR Paper 3 = 50% overall grade
Paper 4 OR Paper 5 OR Paper 6 = 30% of overall grade

Yeah it was really difficult :frown:
It was really hard, the biology and chemistry parts were hard but not so much the physics
Chemistry 6 = Tuesday
Biology 1 & 3 = Thursday

Who else is scared?
