If this is true, I feel sorry for a lot of smart kids who just made silly MC mistakes. How weird will the assessment report be: "125 students received the maximum marks awarded"

2 multi choice wrong = gg?

</3 Further Electronics

There's kids I thought would get 50 that got 3 Further Electronoics MC wrong

But then again, didn't /0 get 48 Methods CAS with an A (or did he/I just miss out on the + when he wrote/I read that) ?

/0 was 0.5 marks off the A+, 37.5/40 he got 37/40. So basically that was an A+ lol.

Yeah but he got a 48 (top 1% around?) when around 9% of the state would have got higher than him on the 1st exam. So ppl who are unhappy with this cutoff, you probably still have hope.

Yeah that's true but can we compare methods with physics?

True about that, some of the questions seemed real easy at the time but then you think again and see what tiny error you made in thinking it just kill you. I got 1 of them wrong and 3 marks for the rest of the exam. I really didn't expect it to be that high.

This really high A+ cut off is starting to really scare me, considering I know I dropped 3 marks in the Detailed Studies due to silly errors.  :(

Such a high cut off with a stupid marking scheme = GG
