How did you find it? Easy or harder than the first one? Discuss answers!

Harder than the first one.
I was most confident with the Biology part but that was hard.. :/

Harder the first one. Hopefully grade boundaries won't be too high. The 6 markers were rubbish.

The calculations were easy but I must say it was hard!!
What did you get for the question where we had to calculate current ?
Did you get 10.9 or something and did you choose 13 for the fuse?

Yup got the same and i preferred this second one WAY BETTER apart from the sections D and Biology 6 marker - only the graphs part.

Harder than the first. Biology was the hardest section and was also the one I felt the most confident with before the exam.

For the salt one with the bacteria did you put they can't live in bacteria because they would lose water by osmosis?

Yeah.. same except I preferred the first paper better :biggrin:

Yeah for Biology 6 marker are you talking about the Fertiliser question?

I found this one surprisingly easier than the first but I was expecting stuff about alpha and beta particles to come up and it didn't and I struggled on the 6 markers. I also put 10.9 and fuse 13. Which wires did you guys pick for chemistry and what about the section d standard form question?

I put the 0.8 x 10 to the power of minus 8 or whatever it was and the wires was on the physics wasn't it?

Samee is that all you put for that question? I also just described the pattern on graph like when they use a bigger mass of blah blah the production of grains or whatever that was also increases. Also I put nitrates produce proteins for growth.Hopefully I get 3 or 4 marks at least.
