Berdasarkan jadual di bawah ini, huraikan keadaan hasil kasar dan perubahan tahunan mengikut sector dari tahun 2001 hingga tahun 2003. Jelaskan sebab keadaan sedemikian.

For that question, should I
1) huraikan the pola or buat perbandingan or???
2) The sebab-sebab need to be separated in other paragraph or mix it with the huraian? If based on this question, I think i should separate the sebab but the book mix it together with the huraian?. I am pretty confuse now.

Frm the question, you're asked to 'hurai mengikut sektor'.

So, you'll need to go frm one sector to another.
And yea, you'll need to hurai the pola.

Each pola one paragraph.
Naik turn, terus meningkat, terus menurun, and tidak konsisten.

An examinar advised us to give an extra point, which is the minimum and maksimum kind of perbandingan.
Because the answer scheme may consider this as a point.
They may not.
So it's always better to play safe. (but I doubt candidates will have that much time to 'play safe' by writting an extra point for each essay)

As for the sebab, I think so it should come after the pola in each paragraph. Because the question asks for "Jelaskan sebab keadaan sedemikian." So you'll need to explain why it keeps dropping, or keeps raising, or it's not consistent etc.

For the sebab kind of thing, it's hard to generalize like this.
You'll need to look at more examples, eventually you'll know which sorta question requires which sorta answers.

Again, we may be unlucky. The whole world may agree with this kind of answer, but if the answer scheme is of the other kind of answer, then we are considered wrong too :p
The answer prepared by MPM is unpredictable, as in, there may be some exceptional cases. So we'll need to depend on luck too.

Yes, answer sheets are the bane of examination and also needlessly punishes the creative but they are a boon for productivity in terms of ease of marking. Therefore guess who wins? The teachers or the students?

1)If a question ask about "berikan implikasi or apakah kesannya terhadap xxxxx" should i give kesan +ve or -ve???

2)Berdasarkan jadual di bawah, nyatakan tentang keadaan guna tenaga mengikut sektor de malaysia pada tahun xxx dan xxx, dan jelaskan mengapa wujudnya keadaan sedemikian...

should i seperate them in different paragraph or mix the penjelasan + huraian in the same paragraph?

3)how to determine the nisbah jejari for carta pai BULATAN bertindih? i try to use (surd x)/(surd y) but it seems like the book just determine the nisbah jejari freely without using the formulae... eg: 1 : 1.2/1.3/1.4 and so on....(pelangi PA2 latest version...)

1) IMO both should be applicable. But in reality the answer might not be so simple. For example this question:

Berikan kesan pendatang asing kepada negara kita.

Based on this question, you should write negative, even though (improbable as it might sound) you MIGHT be able to think of positive points. But if the question asks "pekerja asing" instead of pendatang asing they you can say both positive (workforce for 3D work) as well as negative (flow of money out of country).

Just look at the general tone of the question and the topic of discussion (whether it's something good or bad for the country).

2) I always separate them. I think this is a good way to help the examiners locate your points, making their job easier, making them happier, making them give you more points (last three are my own hypothesis and not to be taken as fact).

3) Use the maths formula (pi)r^2 = volume
In this case volume is your Jumlah Besar. Make two formulas:

(pi) x r1 (squared) = volume1
(pi) x r2 (squared) = volume2

Where 1 and 2 represents 2 different pie charts.

Divide both equations and you get:

r1/r2 = (Square root of) (volume1/volume2)

Then just plug in whatever value you want for r1 and out pops r2 in the correct ratio.

Hope it helps!

As for the sebab, I think so it should come after the pola in each paragraph. Because the question asks for "Jelaskan sebab keadaan sedemikian." So you'll need to explain why it keeps dropping, or keeps raising, or it's not consistent etc.

I thought a new paragraph should be made to give the "sebab keadaan sedemikian"? My class was brainwashed by the PA teacher that whenever a question asks for something like "berikan sebab demikian" after a full stop, then it wants us to make a new paragraph for it. If the question goes something like "huraikan peningkatan blablabla DAN berikan sebab demikian", then it wants us to give the sebab right after we give the main contents.

Same here! my teacher taught us this way. But when i look at the past year questions. It turn out to be the other way round...


By the way:
My tuition teacher and my school teacher spotting for
kepentingan Bioteknologi kepada manusia.... Anyone can give 4 main points for this topic?
I think of two points but don't whether it suitable or not. That is:

1)kepentingan kepada pertanian and
2)kepentingan kepada penternakan.....

any other useful points??

An IQ question I came across:

A and B can build a house together in 60 days. A is only 2/3 as hardworking as B. How many days will A take to build the house alone?

I did it this way:

Assuming A works 2/3 units of work a day, B works 1 unit of work a day. Total units of work a day = 3/2. Total units of work needed to build a house = 100.

Therefore since a only do 2/3 unit of work a day, it will take A 150 days to build the house. However, the answer given was 100 days, which is the number of days B will take. Misprint or am I missing something here?

May i know how to answer questions on carta aliran?? Do we need to give reasons or elaborate on what we write??
For instance, the question asked:

Huraikan keadaan-keadaan yang mempengaruhi "something".

Do we just answer the keadaan that is found in the flow chart (isi tersurat) or do we need to state also the isi tersirat? my pa teacher is making me confused....
Pls help me....
Thanks
