What I'm looking for his last year's report on overall score and the cutoff for A+. IIRC, it's presented in tables and graphical format.
Could someone direct me to it? Thanks :(

was looking at last years A+ prediction thread for physics in the Mid-Years forum and they were relying only the 07 to base their prediction on.
So i was looking at it before and it went something like (this is out of 180 as there are two examiners marking your exam and their total score determines what you get)
164 - 08
153 - 07
143 - 06
162 - 05
153 - 04
Conclusion
So does this mean this year we'll get a 143er? Not in the slightest. As we have a new course this year, you really can't call how well people are going to do. I personally think this will be a higher scoring exam as we can predict quite a lot of the questions (vertical circular motion, banked curves, modulation/demodulation) as it is a new study design and they want to test out their new questions so to speak.

lol, in my opinion if you want to predict a range take a look at the other years.

Heinemann book guy is like: they barely changed the course, just enough so I can write a new book and go on a holiday.

i suggest you delete it ASAP.

Examiners are lazy exact same questions different numbers.

yeah like they're gonna change it 3 days before the exam.you never know

so, physics students are usually about 6000 - 7000.... its possible?
isnt it?
Post by: IntoTheNewWorld on June 06, 2009, 08:52:45 pm
i reckon its possible to change it like methods boy changed it....cuz EG. The age prints about 300000-400000 every two days.

cbs factor is just too high

Over 9000 cbs factor

plus the environment factor (what to do with all eams printed off already)
the distribution of the exams again..... it all can become a tad hectic..
but yea still possible - highly unlikely though
Post by: TonyHem on June 06, 2009, 09:04:19 pm
EG: They get past 2nd language students to test it to see if they can understand the main points of it.
All the testing to make sure its a "fair" exam, and who knows what else they do, takes a lot longer than 3 days.
=_=

dam you're good, but better if you derive the CBS factor to obtain Keeper's Third Lawohh nice i love that
SO
let CBSfactor = Gravitational Force
But
So
Simplify gives:
[1]Keplers by /0 in Keplers thread although i think i saw this in someone's NEAP revision book

On topic, one of the teachers told us the cut-off last year was 84/90... lol liarliar
"If you get this question wrong you're already half-way to losing an A+ blahblah"
Post by: arthurk on June 07, 2009, 09:40:50 am
grade distribution table says 82/90
Post by: Gloamglozer on June 07, 2009, 09:42:51 am
wait what 84/90 are u sure?
grade distribution table says 82/90
Dam ur good, but what's the CBS factor of CBS?
