I mentioned the constant/variable reigons but not the heavy and light chains
oh well...
i think i should really stop worrying about all this

Exactly. The past is in the past and besides, the A+ cutoff is bound to be lower than last year's!

[Huztek]

[Huztek]

And worst of all, I studied my arse off for this! I was killing the tssm trials and then I get this crap !

Hey sorry to hear about this. But by the sounds of it I'm sure you answered the questions you did well! At the end of the day it's only one subject! You can kill some other subjects

What did you guys do for the question that asked us to draw the diagram of an amino acid?

I'm predicting that I'm getting a 61 % minimum in the exam :/ what do you think I might get as a study score if my sac average was 83% ?

[heymanhru]

It said 90 amino acids 

It said monomers that make the polymer, and the polymer it was referring to was a polypeptide (protein), so yeah amino acid lol.

I don't really know tbh! This is my first exam (I'm year 11). But you can look up a study score calculator thing that will help you get an idea

ok so for the drawings (the pedigree, antibody, etc) i drew them in pencil even though you're meant to use pen for short answer.. do you think that will be alright? I know its bc they scan it and pencil is sometimes faint, but it was an hb pencil so it was pretty dark  ?? idk they'd still be able to read it right? im stressin a bit

It gets scanned so lets hope its dark enough to be scanned.

I'm sure it will be fine, I did the same. As long as it's readable and you were using a heavyish hand
