sasushi Yeah my school uses the nelson one and it literally has like one sentence about it

Hey guys can anyone help me with question 24 from the 2019 VCAA multiple choice?

Housestark22

unidentifed they would be distracted towards the end and and likely only have the first letters remembered because theyd be put into long term memory by that point possibly
look at the capacity of short term memory as well

Housestark22

hi
does anyone know what we need to know about the brian like the hpa axis
my notes from class dont really have much i think we skimmed over it ?

unidentifed

Housestark22 we don't need to know HPA axis

unidentifed

Housestark22 Thank youu makes sense now

sasushi

hey heyyy,

are there any differences between the affective/behavioural/cognitive impacts of partial sleep deprivation and total sleep dep?

twinklehello

sasushi It would be probs be more amplified because you literally have gotten no sleep in total sleep dep, thus no REM sleep or NREM sleep, so you could argue that worse cognitive effects (concentration), affective and behaviorual as the body has NOT had time to replenish and restore its systems and functions. Hope this helps 🙃

twinklehello

also! what do we think extended response will be on?

unidentifed

twinklehello I have a feeling it might be maybe unit 4 content like mental health and probably research methods based

twinklehello

and one more thing, has anything done the sample VCAA exam? Is it worth it?

unidentifed

twinklehello I completed it and the multiple choice was pretty similar to the vcaa ones but there are only answers to the multiple choice so there is no point doing short answer questions

yeah, i agree with unidentified about the sample exam,
and for the 10 marker, i am praying soooooo hard that its CC and OC!!!

unidentifed

Also guys ik this is kind of a dumb question but roughly how many marks should you aim for to get a 40+ss. I did relatively good and like only did kind of bad on 1 sac and both my unit 3 & 4 averages are over 80%

sasushi

unidentifed

well according to the TSFX in 2020, you'd have to get 80% + (roughly 97/120 marks) and 90%(108/129) in order to get 45+

It's the same in 2021 as well, so I recon it will be fairly similar this year as well

also according to you SAC marks, its not really your sac mark but more so your rank

-hope this helpsxx

unidentifed

sasushi Yeah my teacher doesn't tell us our ranking so i only have my sac marks to help me predict

sasushi

unidentifed ohhh how come?

unidentifed

sasushi tbh i really don't know ig my class isnt too fussed on ranking coz we all do pretty good

unidentifed

Also guys just a question, what is the cerebral cortex role in memory?
and is learning languages an implicit of explicit memory?

atarwonders

unidentifed hi so the cerebral cortex is involved in storing long-term memory, particularly storing explicit memories. and learning languages fall under explicit memory (so semantic memory) - info of general knowledge/facts
