My calculator for methods wouldn't turn on in exam 2, even with new batteries.  I ended up getting a working calculator with about 1/3 time left in the exam. As a result of this I left out large sections of the exam.  The examiner's for some unknown reason conspired against me and both said that I had a working calculator within 10 minutes, despite the student sitting behind me confirming my story. We assume this is to cover themselves as they may not have followed protocol in some way. I applied for a derived score and I didn't get one based on 'a lack of evidence'. I ended up getting A+ for GA 1 and 2 and a B+ for the exam without a calculator giving me 37 which I was extremely happy with considering the situation. But ultimately I didn't feel the score was a fair representation of my hard work. It sucks that I didn't get any special consideration... ohh well  :D.

@ Mulan, I'm actually not good at maths. Last year, I did 7 competitions - 6 HDs, 1 D. What was the distinction? AMC. So no, I'm not a maths gun, but you can definitely do well in physics with a weakness in maths.

well i still havent got the SS for it but i got a A in my bio midyear :( i was meant to get a 45+ SS. now awaiting my statement of marks to see how far off the A+ i was.
a high A+ in exam 2 will most likely get me around 40 now
