Luken and scocliffe09 have the SA section now, luken is doing the paper as I write this.

A+ cut-off ~30/75?


(don't us you've gone all "weak" on us :P)
Hahaha not that bad, perhaps more of a Biol cutoff :P

When you guys release it you should open up a "poll" for results and work out a special VN A+ cut off.

+1, good idea

I think the big question will be: can anyone will finish it all under the time limit?

Regardless, a hard paper is a good paper. Well done thushan and luke!

thanks pi

hmm...the VN A+ cutoff, hey that's an idea! Well, this means that I'll have to write a detailed marking scheme and notes along with the answers...

Your results will inevitably be skewed pretty badly if you do it via a poll, it's a good thing to do alongside the paper but don't put too much faith in whatever number you get!

OK. Paper got teacher approval. I have a pre-final copy sitting right in front of me right now. Luke's doing a final check.

Does anyone want to volunteer to try this paper, so we can gauge the difficulty of it? I'm not entirely sure how this would work as the paper would have to be scanned so I could mark it personally...

I'll do it. Email it to me ([email protected]) and I'll give you some feedback this weekend. :)
