yeah ur safe like suspense comes up every second year so its due this year
cash flow last came up in 2008
published alot are saying its a possible, last on 2009
and incomplete came up last year as a 60 marker but as a 100 marker it was 2009
service last came 2010
farm never was a 100 marker (i think) but are u sure they told u farm is possible as a section 2?
anyway im preparing cash flow, ratios, published, incomplete and to be safe service and according to u i should know farm
i need an A1 too.;)
for section three
i reckon flexible or cash budgeting - lets hope an easy flexible

Good because i haven't done anything other than service/club/farm, ratios, suspense and incomplete. Yeah 100%, if you look at the start of the exam papers it says it can be asked as a 60 or 100marker and never been asked as 100 mark in section 2 but like i can't be for sure but just to be save like you know how the papers are getting unpredictable this year! I'd they're just put a balance sheet with a 60mark type question and maybe a little bit of theory if it was asked! I hope not though! Really want incomplete and suspense!
Good luck, hope we both get the a1!
Let me know how you find the paper after! Fingers crossed:)

Anyone got any predictions for the spanish opinion piece?

Pete123456 · 17-06-2012 1:22pm

Chemistry anyone? Thanks in advance...

Most likely experiments: Boyle's Law, fundamental frequency of a stretched string, resistivity, one of the specific heat ones, possibly equilibrium for coplanar forces (the metre stick one).

boyle's law came up last year did it not?

So difficult to predict, but such a huge course. rmm of volatile liquid maybe, water of crytallisation, ethanal, maybe ethanoic acid, dissolved oxygen. Honestly though i would listen to me, the papers this year have been so unpredictable, hardly worth risking two years work on a few predictions...

Yep

Oops, sorry! I meant Joule's Law

bengyrules · 17-06-2012 2:23pm

if what some of you people are saying is true and published a/c come up as 100m then i'm ****ed..

Spattersonox · 17-06-2012 2:29pm

I'd love SEC to take the ratios off. That would put the cat among the pigeons

Achiever · 17-06-2012 3:42pm

If I covered Ratios, incomplete, published and cash flow for section 2 I'm sure I would be fine

Also I think Suspense will come up in section 2 but I really despise that question so that's a no go :P Need an A1 hopefully the paper is a nice one :O

HL physics anyone?

All I know is
exp : Joules law , some on heat , sound exp and the resistivity?
Long Q's : Electron , HL option , light , nuclear physics and all of modern physics is well?
Doppler effect?

btw .. how would you describe how Doppler effect occurs? I've been looking for an answer but I don't find anything good ..
" Explain with the aid of diagrams, how this phenomenon occurs" ? da fuq.

The Doppler Effect occurs when either the source or the observer moves. (for drawings/explanations you can say that and then just do it with the source moving, it's simpler)

The source is moving, so it emits waves at a constant frequency but in the direction it is moving the waves will bunch up, so they appear to be closer together. The wavelength seems shorter and thus the frequency seems higher. From the other side, the waves appear to be more spread out, so the wavelength seems longer and thus the frequency seems higher.

If you have a diagram almost your whole answer can be based off it because it makes tons more sense as a picture - if you have Real World Physics there's a really good diagram on page 186, or I found one on Google Images that's pretty much the same:

ill remember you on the day if service firms with ratios and suspense comes up
ya i guess u should be grand

bonnielee · 17-06-2012 6:38pm

okay i know its basically impossible to predict for spanish but has any one any ideas for the opinion piece this year?, have missed most of the school year and any little last minute help would be much appreciated!

maybe feminism?

What do you mean no purchases given? Was this in the past papers

I think its the 2002 cash budget its "O'Toole" not full sure but they say that "purchases should be enough to cover the following months sales" and in the next note it says something like "gross profit is 25% of sales" basically to find purchases you just get for say june you get 75% of july's sales!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Simpler than I thought!

Service firm could be attempted and I might achieve some marks but we didn't do it so I don't have a choice :P ah well we are guaranteed 3 questions so we will be fine

any tips for ag science?

ellie66 · 18-06-2012 2:48pm

Economics OL predictions anyone ? (:

ag science???

Learn the soil, plant and microbiology experiments and should nearly be covered for the experiments because in the experiment question every year a soil and plant one have come up out of the four except i think one so i hope it'll be the same next year and a soil one comes up in the soil question!
Also dairy up every year!

My teacher was saying something about sport could come up
