Thats actually such a good deduction :0

My teacher speed ran that topic so its not looking good for me...

Are you going to revise cell division? I think we kind of have to for the other topics :frown:

I've seen you on the OCR A chem thread. Do you go loreto college by any chance?

ok so i honestly found it really good! the 9-marker was good and the rest of the questions i was able to answer but might have messed up on the magnification and the epu :u:

how did everyone else feel about it?

Everything was good except for that EPU question and the one about snails. Those two questions were really similar and so I put selective advantage for both as it gives camouflage and increases allele frequency. But now I realise that it might've been founders effect or allopatric speciation so I've lost 3 marks at most there. The QER was very easy. For the question about why amylase production slows down after day 8, did you put because they are able to photosynthesise?

I thought it was quite difficult, but I did manage to answer everything. I thought a lot of the questions were worded really weirdly which is why It seemed quite hard. The 9QER was good though :smile:

i think it does get marked but it’s best not to. and the graph i just did dot to dot (so a line graph) and then the range bars on the same point

18,18,19 and the mean I got 18 because all the others had no decimal places. But maybe other people got different idk

If it’s inside that boxed area then yeah it definitely will be (as long as they can read it/make out what it says, that is), but if it’s outside the box I’m not as certain as some people have said it won’t, whilst others have said it will
