bio papers today..

somewhat screwed up..

ok here we go:

paper 1 was breezy..not a breeze, but breezy. there was a nice mix of qns..some were like "duH!" qns..and some were like, "huH??" qns. i screwed up the yoghurt qn..then again, that IS one of my worst chapters. still, i dun think i shld forgive myself for tt.

paper 2 was, in a word, weird. very weird. its like, ultimate decontextualisation for qn 1. and huge, important chapters were left out. nutrition, the nervous system, transport..all were left out for the sake of half the paper being set on ecology. which, in case u didnt know, is also one of my worst chapters.

realli nice of cambridge, isnt it?

and the killer qn: pupil diameter. i swear that maths has returned to haunt me even in my bio exam. pupil diameter and distance from light source?? i dunno, mebbe we went thru it in some obscure lesson, but i seriously know nuts abt it. still, i managed to bullshit some, i think i'll be ok.

and the essay qns were, in a word, anal. i mean, having 2 parts to each essay qn is understandable, but having 2-3 sub-parts per part is just whacked. wrote like crazy..drew diagram for the heart qn..gave eqns for the plant qn..but in the end i have no idea if they apply or not..and i forgot abt water vapour!! wrote so much crap on oxygen and carbon dioxide, and i forgot abt water vapour!!

2 yrs of mugging for bio down the drain cos cambridge decided to be funny when setting the paper 2 years ago..

life just isnt fair..

is it??

*wails*

anw..next papers are geog(elec) and physics, followed by chem.

2 words.

i'm screwed.

ok maybe that's 3 words..
