Any ideas?

I believe that all owners of dogs should be legally bound to pick up their canine's waste materials while walking them intrusively through society's streets. If they do not abide to this law, then imprisonment or deportation or conscription to the military would be warranted.

it was only a lot harder in our eyes because our unit 3 paper made us think that this would be impossible i think .
i think the A+ mark should be max 85% ...purely guessing though

Hmm I found the standard similar to last year's. I agree with sir0004, I went into the exam expecting a killer like the mid year, so it felt like an easy exam. However there were a few tricky questions that could catch people out. I guess we'll have to wait and see when results come out.

I felt the questions about the chemical were a bit easy I felt, I mean, with circling the hazchem symbols, my chemical was ammonia, so circling toxic gas was a nobrainer. But I agree, while multiple choice and a few short answer questions were easy, the vanadium battery question, the rate graph question, and the equilibrium methanol one will definitely separate people. Just glad it all finally over :)

i think parts of it were deceptively challenging, certainly enough to separate. i'd guess same as last year, ~80%
