Adding subjects that aren't showing/Physics Chatter

Calculated I can lose 40marks on bio, and I reckon I did. Drew two diagrams for the mentrual cycle one and hoping for like 3 marks or so out of 10. I felt the exam did not really cover the scope of the whole course as I studied a lot of other topics in depth.

Chem is easy, the questions are often in the same style and espically the organic and inorganic chem because rizza and abraham have been teaching those for yearsss

Which specific qs do you think you messed up (if you can remember)

Hair lice was hard... cellular respiration i got confused in a few of the blanks. I forgot what myosin was. Tbh i prepared alot more on development, plants and anatomy of reproduction. none of which really came up.

Freaking plant anatomy, I did so much of it last night, waste of my life could have been studying for chem.  I thought the hormone thing with Rhodnius was a little shit, I mean, he didn't even tell us that juvenile hormone supresses and ecdysone causes molting (or at least that is what I have gathered from the textbook).  Or like, maybe he did and the drone of his voice had sent me to sleep by that point.

I thought that some of the 2 mark multiple choice was a bit hard just because I hadn't really studied it, lel.  Like, the mychorrhazial fungi, I was meant to put that on my train to do list with all my books and then I left summary book 2/5 at home and so couldn't do so.  I thought the last question of Elgar's was really ambiguous - what did you guys write about?  I couldn't recall ever learning about lipid soluble/water soluble hormones in his class, but it referred to the actions of hormones within cells.  I was going to write a nasty note over the page about it and explain those terms as well but I ended up writing about autocrine/endocrine/parocrine stuff because that's what I recalled learning in class, even though that doesn't describe the action of hormones IN the cells but rather the site of action related to the site of production.  Could have been wrong though!  Oh well.

Also, re: chem, I'm scared for Willa, she scares meeee.
And also thanks for going through that question guys!  About to go through it after getting it wrong myself.

And @Mike, thanks haha!  I didn't know you were Fundamentals.  But you probably do oxidation numbers at the moment and so know them better than me anyway, we haven't gone over them in Chem1 and I have forgotten 99% of year 12 if it isn't reinforced in this course.

Argh this is really freaking me out, I did the calculations for the previous question and working back I can see that x = 9x10^-6 but no matter how many different ways I solve it forward in my calculator I get some bogus answer WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PIECE OF MACHINERY.  D':

Ouch, sounds tricky, you gotta know what myosin is though Only joking, that's PE stuff. Anyway, I'll be doing this next semester. Anyone care to send me any of the resources that you've used so far including past exams? Wouldn't mind getting a massive head start If so, my email is [email protected]. It would be greatly appreciated.

WE ONLY GET ONE EXAM D: tuff lyf.
But Edmund sent me another.
I can send you both!  ...Tomorrow, after the chem exam and I am freeeee!

[Blakhitman]

AS LONG AS passing the exam isn't a hurdle!

Edit:  Who else had biol today?  Pretty sure I'm actually considering wearing a snuggie to chem tomorrow.

Passing the exam isn't a hurdle.

Oh, awesome, thanks for that! And by next semester, I meant next year, whoops. You are so lucky to be finishing while the majority of people are just getting started. Stuff you.

[simpak]

Yes!  But this past week/swotvac has been verrry stressful and crammed, would have liked just one extra day to study for chem before the exam in the morning, sigh.

[lexitu]

True true, but still... 7 weeks of holidays sounds pretty good

[simpak]

PRETTY SURE everyone else is probably sleeping in preparation for the exam.
Why am I so silly?   Nah in all seriousness six hours sleep should be enough.

I also prepared heaps for plant anatomy, virtually no questions asked, maybe 40% of everything I learned was assessed, I also had ecdysone, then altered it at the last moment..,


mavis, or anyone else if you have an electronic copy of chem 1 tute book pleassee send.

[simpak]

Sure if you PM me your email I'll send it to you.


Oh god Chem today, did not enjoy >:

[mikee65]

Some of the options in the hair lice question were ambiguous, resistance and resilient, perhaps resilient isnt as definitive but still

[happyhappyland]

Chem was so hard today......................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I could lose 47 marks out of 180 to get H1 though. I counted all the marks I MIGHT lose and got 52 so Im a bit worried

[mikee65]
