What he said, how does 114-146 equate to a loss of sixteen marks? Can someone explain?

they double the score, so if u lose 16 marks first up this becomes 32 after doubling. makes no difference.

Methods u probably need full marks to get a 50 in both exams. In chem I think you can let go 1 or 2 marks...
