<p>Oh that could be, I took that test the same day as this year’s and maybe I’m confused. So there wasn’t a joint question this year? </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Yup, rarely scare in terms of anatomy in general.</p>
<p>What did you guys get on the question about pick which one was false:</p>
<p>I picked the one that homo-oligomeric proteins are slow in activity.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The general consensus is that the prestige is as follows: USAMO>USAPhO>USACO>USABO>USNCO (remember that this is all relative)
But then again, qualifying for the final round of any of these contests is an amazing feat in itself.</p>
<p>For some ethos…I’ve done pretty well in USAMO/PhO/BO and have participated in USACO (haven’t tried USNCO, but am looking into it)</p>
<p>Hey Pirrup</p>
<p>Welcome to CC and our forum specifically!
I’ve had a question about whether or not we were supposed to put more than one answer where it applied but was not asked for. My instructor said no, but now I am wondering as many people here did put multiple answers on questions that did not say “choose all”. Do you know with any certainty what was the correct way to answer?</p>
<p>What do u guys got for the pedigree question. Is it A, autosomal ?</p>
<p>It was X-linked dominant.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the answer to the question about directionality of vesicles? I say SNAREs but my friends say clathrin.</p>
<p>results tomorrow? will we get our exams and correct answers? are results on the teacher’s page?</p>
<p>Umm I’m pretty sure they come out next Tuesday.</p>
<p>Yep. March 16th is when results come out. I’m betting 25 cutoff and 35 highest.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember what he/she put for that question about which of the following was not true about translation?
The answer choices I’ve narrowed down are these:
“polypeptide had to finish being translated before folding on itself”
“translation always occurs in the cytoplasm”</p>
<p>I put the former, but I know someone who gave a reasonable explanation for putting the latter…</p>
<p>Correct answer is the former.</p>
<p>I agree that the former is more valid, but does no translation ever begin in the RER lumen? And can mitochondrial ribosomes translate? Those would be counterexamples.</p>
<p>My biology teacher checked with USABO (CEE) about whether or not multiple answers should have been given if not asked for. There was apparently one question (question one?) that allowed for multiple answers but was not asked for. They will “adapt” the grading considering that question, but otherwise the only questions that should have had multiple answers are the ones that clearly requested more than one answer.</p>
<p>^^ yeah, that was the question on flowering. both 5.5/6.5/5.5/6.5 and 5/7/5/7 worked. I just put 5/7/5/7</p>
<p>phosphorlyescenc: I’m pretty sure your estimates are too low. I’m saying 27 cutoff, 42 highest.</p>
<p>Hmm I put both. So that’s wrong? </p>
<p>As for cut-offs you never know. It was definitely harder than last year. The same thing happened in the AMC, and cut-offs dropped pretty dramatically. I’m saying 25 as well, based on 27 from last year.</p>
<p>its probably going to be thrown out? Also what did you guys get for the subspecies question? I was pretty sure that they had a choice where it contained two choices like e.g. D. A & B or E A & C or something like that.</p>
<p>I chose the choice that had both choices that they could mate and that they lived in similar geographic regions? or was it habitats?</p>
<p>^^ meadow, putting both was what they were looking for. I only put one bc they didn’t ask for multi</p>
<p>what did you get Messiah for my question?</p>
<p>I put down mating only. Species are defined in terms of reproduction, and geography has nothing to do with it.</p>
