I translated it right after the exam and I was like even I know that’s wrong 😭 itijah is direction
I think these papers are slightly harder than the other years. Even the question when it said الرغبة I had to stare at the word for like 5 minutes to try understand if they meant the west or outsider

I stared at experts for a gd minute. Whenever I was writing the essays and I run out of ideas I’d go back on the translation n add a word or two 😭

Yeah I didn’t know how to translate that either but the one that really got me was spatio-economics I knew what economics was but spatio?? They really didn’t want us picking up any marks from the translation lol. Only thing I’m super annoyed about is paper one I ran out of time for some of the questions cos I spent sm time on research 😭

It said socio economic so I just put الاجتماعي والاقتصادي. Also do yk how the hell the marking works bc on grade boundaries it’s out of 370 but the papers add up to 250 or smt?

Yeah took me long to find the right grade boundaries but it’s these ones

If you want the 2022 ones just change the 23 to 22 in the url.

That’s the dumbest shi I’ve ever heard so if me n u got same mark it doesn’t necessarily mean same final grade 💀

No no the numbers that they show is just like an idea of how much you you’d most likely get based on the max marks on each paper. But add up all the marks so for example for a grade B you need 131 marks from all three combined. Don’t stress 🤣🤣

Honestly i have no clue I’m stuck between pharmacy and radiography. Pharmacy just has sm chemistry I’m scared I won’t be able to handle it. But radiography has night shifts and the salary isn’t amazing, pharmacy has a much higher salary. Hopefully I’ll figure it out before the results day. 😭😭

paper 1 is 80 x 1.85... because its weighted 40% overall and then the paper 2 is not multiplied since its already 30% and paper 3 is 60 x 1.85... which makes it worth 30% making it overall 370 marks overall. So paper one was the one you needed to get a lot of marks on because even though its 80 on paper its actually around 149 marks overall and paper 3 is big as well so you can't overlook it either.

Translation was VERY hard, how the hell am I supposed to know how to translate socio-economic or trends

Ikr what the hell was that????
For socio-economic changes I wrote التغيرات الاجتماعيه والاقتصادية. I only knew the word for economy because I did tourism for paper 1 research question 🥲
