And tbh I feel like my paper 2 carried, as I correctly predicted nearly all of my marks for every paper I did across all subjects, so I feel quite sure that I got around 40-55/70 (a big range as I somehow got an A* so not sure exactly) and 56-61 in paper 2. Wbu? What were your marks/ grade?

well maybe 30-40 worst case scenario for both papers I did not like both of them at all. Paper 2 perhaps because of the ambiguity of the question that is just my view. I loved the classification part of the questions hopefully I wrote the binomial name. The last statements I got one right because and wrong for the statements at the end and the boxes Qs at the very end of p2. I liked the fish question very much but i still think there wasn't a lot to talk about . Practical's Qs was way better in p2 than p1 honestly I didn't know how to get scenario qs on t-test if I can recollect right if that's what they asked about sampling method . What were your strength and weaknesses for particular Qs across both papers like any 6 marks or any similarities from mine ?

It’s been abit since I did the test, but from what I remember, I just struggled with the phrasing of the questions and how niche they were, for paper 1. For questions I struggled on, I don’t think I struggled too much, more so that I lost easy marks since I didn’t know exactly what to write as it was confusing. The 6 markers were fine tbh, and yeah I preferred those type of questions. And for the student T test one - you had to talk abt how u need the mean to be able to compare them, so you can’t do the t test as they only gave us the median
