My further sac was harder then checkpoint questions which were exam papers.... like wtf
But its all good if my cohort does much better in the exam compared to the sac as it will scale up alot

Today I literally had 2 periods of actual classes, since my specialist teacher was away. :)  But sadly I got told that I have to write an English essay tomorrow in a period. :'(  Luckily my teacher gave the prompt so I can prep for it.

Do you go to a private or selective school if the sac questions were harder than checkpoints

Received German SAC back today and was really pleased with my result. Good way to start the year off.

Tomorrow is my English SAC, which I'm feeling ready for! I'm hoping that my desired prompt comes up. Fingers crossed.

Hope you enjoy your camp!

Wow, you're psych advice looks great and really comprehensive from the perspective of a non-psych student. Looking forward to reading your methods advice, 44 is a great score. You've also inspired me to write my own guide for bio now haha, so that'll be fun.

What was your bio poster sac on?

Thank you!! Hahaha spent so many hours doing that, especially for the topic-specific advice.
I'd love to read your Bio post!

Well, we had to design our own experiment based on the DV of "average change in mass". So I did mine on how molecular weight affects the rate of diffusion in potato cubes, and I measured the change in mass of potato cubes before and after I submerged them in solutions containing different compounds with different molecular weights. Was a little unclear, and I feel like I should've stuck with the more conventional IVs, like temperature and pH.
Not feeling confident with it at all :(

Sounds very interesting. It's always good to try something different and unconventional as it deepens your understanding of the theory, even if more effort is required.
