<p>What happens if they throw out a question?
Like what’s the point? Since it’s based off the number we get right…it wouldn’t really affect our score would it? :(</p>
<p>well if they throw out a question then the people who got that one right lose a point… i dont think this happens often</p>

<p>I got a 39 last year, so I’m hoping I can beat that. Probably not though, this one was hard.</p>
<p>If you can beat that, I’ll mail you over a couple of dollars. :P</p>
<p>Hey everyone, please send me your answers to the 2009 exam and I’ll cross-reference them with mine. I’m trying to create an “answer key” with all of our different answers based on the majority (and looking them up of course).</p>
<p>can someone send me the 08/09 exams or the 06 answer key? PM me. I have SAT QAS/AP tests, etc. in return</p>
<p>They are on this website for download:</p>

<p>@ Inso: lol, I’m not giving out my address! You’ll send me bacillus anthracis or someone else will (this thing gets pretty competitive, you know!)</p>
<p>Anthrax in mail?..sounds familiar.</p>
<p>Hey guys, does anyone know what the answer to number 8 is on the 2009 exam? I’m torn between C and E.</p>
<p>
Well, now that you mention it… >:-)</p>
<p>Koch would be proud. Er, sort of. :P</p>
<p>I think E is the right answer because I think the purpose of oxygen was to be the final electron acceptor, not an allosteric effector. Plus, anaerobic respiration=lactic acid fermentation anyways, and the citric acid cycle only uses up nad+, but doesn’t create it.</p>
<p>ccer222: Post the question.</p>
<p>anyone have the answer key to 2009 exam?
if it’s ok, can i post my answers and you guys check it to yours?</p>
<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>I am taking the USABO Open exam on Wednesday , Feb 17th ( the last day to take the exam).
Any advice? What were the questions like?</p>
<p>I have studied Campbell.</p>
<p>I am having a hard time opening up the Open Exam 2008.
The password is not working…</p>
<p>Any verified 2009 Open Exam Answers? PM me</p>
<p>What do you think the 2010 cutoff score will be? Seeing that last year’s was a 27 and that this year was by far harder than any other test (including the 2009 one).</p>
<p>I wish I’d studied for this…</p>
<p>Oh. My. Goodness.
Now I’m really wondering what the cutoff will be. :[
Anyone have an idea how many they got right?</p>
