!Science tomorrow!

DublinArnie

Morning y'all!
Probably the hardest subject for most of you boardsies? I'm excited for tomorrow, I love science, I love the exam and I can't wait to do it .

Feel free to use this thread to ask and post notes on various of chapters in science .

Note: SCIENCE EXAM IS UNPREDICTABLE, IT FOLLOWS A RANDOM PATTERN. SO PLEASE DON'T KEEP ASKING FOR PREDICTIONS AS WE CANNOT HELP YOU WITH THAT.

Nah, Science is easy, I just find Biology and Chemistry really boring, so learning them is a pain.

The great thing about science is that you either know it or you dont know it, theres no long pointless explanations like in history or geography it's just do the question and move on with it. Everyone is usually finished pretty quick

Darwin said evolution is real .

Also, Home Economics is a science .

I'll move the off-topics later. I have to go to work.

Have fun :L!

Ugh I am dreading it. Papers are completely random so its not like you can focus on a few topics...., my teacher can't teach (and she spends like 90% of the class giving out to people for whispering like ugh), and I am rubbish at Physics and Chemistry. My only hope is to try and do really well in Biology and I might come out with a C if I am lucky :P
Also I put a lot of effort into those booklets we had to do, so I am expecting a good grade in that.

Could non mandatory experiments come up?

They are not really supposed to come up. Most if not all experiments asked will be mandatory ones.

Science is the subject that my parents care the most about and want me to focus on 20 times more than all the other subjects yet it is one of the only subjects I have a horrible teacher in. If my project is good then I'm pretty sure I'll get at least a C but I really need an A.

Should I learn stuff from the book, learn off notes from my revision book/the physicsteacher.ie or should I practice exam papers?

Get notes on a particular chapter ... and do all questions on the past papers refering to that chapter, do with or without the notes. Do that for most of the chapters, and you should be fine!

Guys does anyone know if they give you a formula and tables book from the very start of science like in maths paper 1 and 2 or do you have to ask for it??

High five again! I love science!

I might just read this encyclopedia I have on the Human Body and use lots of big terms for those questions in biology :P

cfc.forever

No you will probably have to ask for a formula and tables book, goodluck everyone

Can anyone help me with the science experiment folder?
I just read somewhere on a 2009 JC boards thread that you only need to have 24 experiments written up?! I have 45 done but I haven't finished all of my study on habitat booklet.. do you think I'd be safe leaving half of that experiment unfinished and studying instead?

greenpyjamas

Its some of ye have bad science teachers? I have one of those, trying to learn physics now but it isn't sinking in :L Hoping for a B at least, I don't know maybe it won't be so bad.... *fingers crossed*

abcdefghijkl

I don't mind science exams, but I haven't opened my science book in a while, so I think I've forgotten most of the stuff I studied. Will revise for a while tonight and hope for the best.

I hope the s**t about the plants comes up

Man im so nervous about the experiments :L i find them so hard

What's the difference between the xylem and phloem?

The xylem transports Oxygen, the phloem transports food. ""X""ylem - O""X""ygen, "ph"loem - "f"ood.

Thank you!!

Technically the xylem transfer water and minerals . This would be a better answer than oxygen.even though water does consist of oxygen it's not 100 percent correct.

Marking schemes for science always have oxygen when asking about the Xylem, our teacher just told us to remember that way, although you're perfectly correct and more accurate than me, so thanks for the correction. =P
