if one writes irrevelant and then forgets to cut that part after writing the correct ans then .....will they award marks or not ?
what i know is that. if you right two things (2 points) in a sentence, the first is wrong and second is right (knowing the u have to put one point on each line for example to get three marks, so 3 points. and u decided to add another point with one of them), then theey will mark that sentence wrong, coz they usually take in the first part of that sentence, which in this case is wrong.....umm got it??

For those asking about writing excess:
It's perfectly fine if you write more than required, I did too.
My teacher always instructed us to write ample, but correct, information.
I remember reading an examiner report that said "The most able candidates penned in a tremendous amount of information, making sure they score full marks"

Maths was horrible :/
Physics wasn't that great either.
But Chemistry and Biology were, Allahamdullilah, exceptionally well.
Anyway, gt will most probably be around 40 to 43.
Not more, if not less.
Same here! Physicss was fine. Chemistry and Biology (Y)

please dont discuss the paper. and about that...i actually did the same thing...i believe they will give us mark for writing the correct answer...as long as the extra info about enzyme denaturing is right...
