cork*girl

Good God Its tomorrow. Im doing ordinary level myself so It shouldnt be too bad.. Any thoughts on it?

Conor108

Doing HL myself, just looked it over and doesn't seem that bad. Anyone have any ideas whats coming up because I'm a little lost;)

Yeah they told us :rolleyes:

Conor108

I mean predictions of whats coming up, wise guy:D

Most of the questions can just be guessed.

Why do you see lightning before you hear thunder?

How do you separate rock salt?

Just study the biology diagrams.

Fairly easy some bits were hard like that marie curie stuff all in all very doable Now only two test left woodwork monday and music on wedensday Yay:D

highlydebased

some of it was hard.......was ok tho

Pinkfoot

Finally I'm done everything!!

I left this with like an hour to go, it was okay... probably got a C haha.

qwertplaywert

was great, i got like 29 percent in the pres, didnt nkow any of the stuff, aint learned much since then either, but that was relitivly easy!saay i properbly got a b when coursework is counted in
alot of it was common sense

Conor108

Yeah it was easy enough left 55mins early. Guessed the one or 2 I couldn't do

Q: What makes water hard?
A: Female water?

waheyyy

i thought it was ok, some weird q's though....

highlydebased

The one about the snowflakes! That was stupid!

What was the answer to the one about seeing lightning before hearing thunder?

waheyyy

that the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound.

what did ye put down for the application of refraction? my friend said illusions....!

Conor108

I said periscopes. Anybody get the last question? And what time did ye leave at?

highlydebased

I said optical illusions too LOL! I was desperate for marks I spose so I just put it down....

waheyyy

ya for the last one it was the experiment of that bell inside a glass thingy and the air was sucked out of it....

i stayed til the end.;

I'm not sure how well I did. Chemistry was a pain seeing as we barely covered it at all. Physics was easy enough.

i said refraction was used for glasses. I think its calcium sulfate and magnesium sulfate that makes water hard.

If any of you saw the original post that was left here I apologise.....the person who left that comment in my name has been dealt with....and i'll never leave him alone in the room with the computer when logged into boards under my username ever again.

On another note,I've heard mixed comments about the difficulty of the chemistry questions.The general opinion on those questions is??

Conor108

Oh my god, I've just remembered what the refraction diagram looked like! Why the hell did I say periscopes?? Oh I was thinking about mirrors...wtf:(

qwertplaywert

anyone put down a star wars answer for the force question?

CiaraBelle

I thought the exam was good overall cept for the question about eletrical currents and the weather question. our teacher told us that in science the high pressure and low pressure isnt the same as geography so i got confused!

Conor108

I hadn't a clue! wrote down sunny weather and low precipitation For force I was gonna write:

The answer is 2 *waves hand*

zstar43

cud u say 4 the experiment about that sound needs a medium could you use an alarm clock and put it in a bell jar? and close the lid or whatever and you couldn't hear the sound anymore?? it went good and sure the labooks are 10% guaranteed but i dont know how hard they mark the experiments?? does anyone know?? there was some really random stuff like a scary looking woman and snowflakes?! probably got a c tho its my worst subject... if im blessed a "b" !!!
