guys whats the structure for the science essay writing not the report one?
A basic essay structure an intro 3 ish body paragraphs and a conclusion
introduction or no? also do they give you three arguments kind of to write it abour
Sierra i did see a post about just revising year 8 and 9 topics for maths and science(fort the reasoning). I think mainly try practicing science writing tasks since apparently it'll be one of the harder tests to do. Probably a way to practice is byt just writing a bunch of reports and essays on science related topics to really get the hang of it if ur not used to it
yes to intro, not exactly to giving 3 arguments. Prompts might be slightly different but they give u a bunch of info and maybe they'll give you a few statement to guide your piece. For example, the prompt might be oil spills and they'll give u a bunch of info and statistics, and they might say 'write an essay outlining the significance of oil spills and how to reduce them'. From this you might be able to get a basic outline of what ur paragraphs need to be
Yeah, there is two types of writing, there is science analysis and reporting an science intrest and communication.
For analysis and reporting it will pretty much tell you to write or complete a scientific report.
For interest and communication, it will either ask you to express your thoughts or discuss about something. They will prob give you a page with stats and like one or two articles as reference for your essay.
guys this is kinda random but approx how many people in your school r taking the exam this year? My grade probably has atleast 30-50 kids trying
lols im a year 8 but same probably for me like 20 to 30
300-350

MHS successful candidate crazy, my cohort size is like a quarter of that
MHS successful candidate that’s the size of my cohort so istg if that’s somehow the number of ppl trying from one school

MHS successful candidate damn I’m guessing ur going to mhs?
lols nah but even when 350 are trying, only 5-10 make itin.
