Hey,
Yes I am aware many of you easily cleared the A+ marks, I got everything right in motion and electronics (perhaps a mark or so lost on the explanations but everything else was all correct), it's just further electronics which got to me, even though it's meant to be easy.
What's the cut off approximate for an A? I know you can't really tell or know, but seeing as the general consensus is 85/90 for an A+, what are we thinking for an A?
-
I'd also like to know what people are thinking for an A.
-
Me too!
-
Well, if an A's supposed to correspond to the top 20%, I'd say it'd be a maximum of 80.

80/90?
or 80% which is roughly 72/90?

80/90 he means.
I personally think the A cut off will be around 77/90.

I Hope A cut off will be 75 :)

No - he meant 80%

Wrong, he meant 80/90. 80% would be 72/90. The A cut off last year was 76/90 so if the exam was alot easier this year it would have to go up!!
-
B+ for me!
I estimated I got 76.5, since I seen the answers.
-
Hopefully the cut off is like last year :]

hey i was just wondering if you get (83/90) would that be an A+ and also for the motion that jason question(satallite) is Fnet the same as Fg because i wrote Fnet and im scared it could be wrong
thanks

F_net is due to F_g, they are the same in this case.
I think A+ cut off will be 84-85.
A cut off around 79-80.
-
i think A+ cut off will be 83 max...i dont really think it will change much despite everyone saying it was much easier than last yr
-

man i hope that's true...i think i got like 83-84 /90
it depends if they award the mark for that lame LED ON/OFF question.

They should. I got the same as you, and I (and others) think it's one mark for the three first ones and one for the last three. Stupid if they don't award any marks, because it at least shows you have some understanding of LED's if you put on on no for the last three.
-
Yea, it is 1 mark for 1st three, and then another mark for the last 3.
If you get 1 wrong in one of the group of three, you get 0 marks.

YAY tis should be true. that means i only lost 6 marks not 7. (i know, it still sounds bad but every mark is crucial)
