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

    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%

      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

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

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

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

            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

            also does anyone know how to answer a 4 mark question just explaining how systematic desensitisation can be used for someone with a phobia of bees?
            thank you

              atarwonders Systematic desensitisation is a form of therapy where the individual is exposing to a fear producing hierarchy and is simultaneously paired with a breathing technique to gradually extinguish the fear response. An individual with a fear of bees may be presented with a fear hierarchy (picture of a bee, bee in a cage and so on) until the most feared stimulus, bees, while practicing the breathing technique. Hence, this process is continued until the individual shows no response to the bees.

              Hope this helps also can anyone give me any critics or feedback 🙂

                heyy, can anyone explain why MCQ question 10 (of 2021 vcaa exam) is d?

                  sasushi basically the antecedent doesn't directly produce the response as that is the consequence, the behavior directly produces the response

                  twinklehello so technically out of all of the options it is the best-suited one,
                  A- this one doesn't really make sense bc its both action and contemplation
                  B- I think this one would be between pre-contemplation and contemplation
                  c- this one is contemplation and then relapse
                  d- this one is the most correct, (and my teacher's PowerPoint says that an individual in the preparation stage can make some behavioural changes but doesn't completely change their behaviour. )

                  I hope this makes sense, and if anyone has anything to add please do!

                    Hi can anyone explain 1c short answer from vcaa 2021, like since when did they want answers like that 😰

                      unidentifed

                      Breaking down the answer what you needed to identify:

                      • exhaustion stage of GAS
                      • impact on heart as stated by question
                      • plausible connection between the two based on your knowledge of stress

                      I doubt they would expect you to know the whole question on your own but with the question having told you that he developed a heart condition makes the question a lot more reasonable than it otherwise could have been.

                      Edit: you should know it's exhaustion stage because that where major illness is more likely to occur, minor colds can however occur towards the end of resistance.
