Thoughts on exam?

[lala1911]

I found majority of it okay with a few tricky questions.

[k-smoove]

I found it manageable, some hard ones here and there but definitely something that wasn't extremely difficult like last years one supposedly!

Glad you guys found it okay

If anyone has a copy of the exam, send it to me via PM and I'll try to get answers up ASAP.

Some of the multiple choice questions where a bit challenging but manageable. What did people answer for the multi choice about the correlation between heart rate and oxygen consumption?

Hope everyone went okay

Really interested to see what the questions were like this year.

If anyone has a copy of the exam, send it to me via PM and I'll try to get answers up ASAP.

Oh, so you can handle it all without me then?

My P.E teacher took my copy ><

Was pretty good :) a couple of questions were a bit tricky to get your head around  and you just don't know whether you go into enough detail

[ctoom14]

probably same level of difficulty as 2011, no way near as hard as the 2012 paper
most of the extended questions were pretty straight forward (except for the critiquing of bike riding to school initiative, anyone know why it wasn't successful)
the multiple choice were alright but they had a few questions that were a bit ambiguous

anyone have a guess about what the A+ cut off mark will be?

A+ cutoff guess: 93/120. I think it wasn't successful because it didnt target the individual level (skills to ride) and no policy. Idiotically, I wrote that it targeted the childrens age levels then realised skills.. ><

A+ cut off mark will be pretty high I reckon given the low difficulty level.
I spoke about lack of variety (same bike route every day) and the fact that no individual information/education on bike riding skills or safety were provided and just made up something to critique social and policy levels (social - could create exclusive groups/policy - no incentives to participate e.g. being allowed to wear PE uniform if you participate). Not sure if any of that was right...I found that as one of the more difficult questions.

Definitely easier than 2012 overall but quite long. Took about 1 hour 45

haha yeah i spoke some crap about no traffic calming measure for policy, I though the individual was targeted through changing their behaviour by them using active transport to get to school.....

93/120 thats not too bad then
do you know what the cut offs have been in past

Still no exam! Anyone have a teacher who's nice about these things?

[peachesandcream]

I had a teacher go through answers with me in the examination room lmao. I should've asked :\
Post-exam of course

[lexitu]

Haha, during the exam would have been ideal.

If anyone is around school tomorrow, it's worth asking. I know my PE teacher was happy to give me a copy.

[kennedyj1310]

I personally found it to be a fair exam, although I felt like there were a few questions that I found difficult to answer in enough detail to achieve full marks. Made a few silly mistakes though :/
Well done to everyone who finished the exam, I had completed about 16 practice exams and I only just finished it by the end.

Does anyone have any idea what sort of score would give a mid 40, given a top 3 ranking in SAC marks?
