Our school has 2 examiners for Accounting.

One is the best, the other is the worst.

it's funny when teachers think they are top because they mark exams

"well i know because im an exam marker."
"everyone! calm down! i'm an exam marker! dont worry!"
><
That is so true :L
My methods teachers boasts about being an exam marker for many years

tbh this exam was probably worse than last year. not because I think I did bad but more so because it didn't test about your level of chemistry but more about how many tricks they tried to fit into the exam. Feels like their main intention wasn't to test our chemistry knowledge but more to pick the ones who make the silly mistakes.

I agree... last year's methods CAS exam 1 was like this too.
Sucks.

concordant is with 0.1
so 20.03 counts

I have never heard this, always been plus or minus 0.05!

That's the truth about VCE Maths + Sciences. Everything is about avoiding the tricks rather than knowing everything. There are some exceptions though, the 2.0m/s^2 vs 2.5m/s^2 pulley question in Physics was more about concepts than tricks.

We were taught that concordant had to be in 0.05ml of each other.

That + energy question.

But they all have to be within 0.05, 21.97 and 22.03 aren't.

bah I really don't care anymore.
