Dont you think this exam had alot of sexual references to it!? like the male fertility thing? I wrote he could make babies lol maybe I should have been a bit more specific on that one

isnt it the opposite since he couldnt produce as much testosterone and sperm?

I think ivslt is right happy unfortunately.

the structure of the exam was different to previous years. they jumped right into immunity in multiple choice. barely anything on the chemical nature of the cell.

Yeah he was only like half a man

Idk... im not a big fan of immunity, i think it could of been a lot worse immunity wise.

[matty.k]

i didn't struggle at all with immunity most of them were just common sense however i did fuck up on william's cat grrrrr. I thought that was a trick question and i was either going to pick he can keep his cat or histamine is a negative control. WHY DIDN'T I CHOOSE THE CAT

[stonecold]

SO many people were trying to tell me that the cat was the dumb and obvious answer, but I was like NO, it is the right answer because two of the options were plain wrong, and the histamine was a positive control, not a negative control.

[matty.k]

yea i figured, like i knew that the cat was the obvious answer since William didn't have a positive reaction to it. I eliminated the dust mite and the horse option since that the antigens would be different and i was left with the cat and histamine. Thought it was a trick question..

anyways I'm out going to do 1 more chem exam before tomorrow.

[kayjay]

lost two marks for leaving the vaccine question blank, the one abt  removing the receptors, and from the interpretation by you guys i got the cat one wrong. i did horse and dustmite. Bloody long exam, barely finished and rushed. i hope i scraped into something decent cause i got destroyed by accounting later in the day. GG FML
Chemistry better be decent and i better do good or else Vcaa can....

@mavisgibbons: I hope someone has the exam. I'm very disappointed that no one has nabbed it. Last year I managed to get the PE exam.

[The Detective]

yeah that answer was dodgy. I picked the cat but I thought it was wrong who would've thought a VCAA answer to an allergy question would be 'he can keep his cat?'

[Caspar]

SO many people were trying to tell me that the cat was the dumb and obvious answer, but I was like NO, it is the right answer because two of the options were plain wrong, and the histamine was a positive control, not a negative control.

Most of the MHS cohort chose the cat.
