Any sort of punishment would reduce the frequency.

S - in a shop and sees a lolly
R - screams for the lolly throwing a tantrum
C - positive punishment in the form of a slap

Would this be right? I kinda struggled with S

S: presence of parents
R: behave
C: gets a lolly - positive reinforcement.

Do you guys think the A+ cut-off will be low? I'm still having mixed feelings about whether this was an "easy" exam for the state or a "hard" one

That question I wrote down something so stupid, sounded like I repeated myself a few times due to time pressure. :/
‎"We divert our attention from disease and death as much as we can; and the slaughter-houses and indecencies without end on which our life is founded are huddled out of sight and never mentioned, so that the world we recognize officially in literature and in society is a poetic fiction far handsomer and cleaner and better than the world that really is."

Its hard to say because the biggest reason that the mid-year cut off was so low was because of section C....

This time around the average for section C will probably still hover around 4 which is far better than 4.5/15 on the midyear or whatever it was.

I would say around 70/90 considering it was a strange exam, idk though

I think it will be higher.. many of my classmates said it was 'easy' and 'much easier than mid-years' ... 'killed it'... 'raped it'... and what not.... I thought it was similar difficulty ... maybe it was because i actually prepared for alzheimer's for mid year so i wasn't thrown off.

I spent ages agonising over the three-phase model question  :P
In the end I did:
S - Bedtime
R - Tantrum as child didn't want to go to bed
C - Punishment (with the parent taking a toy off the child)
ATAR - 91.10

ER was much easier.
MCQ and SA were harder though in my opinion. 
I'm hoping the A+ range is around the same or lower...barely did Section C :(
Bleh.
