Tables
When recording data in a table, ensure
1. A heading which is sufficiently detailed which should include the dependant and indepandant variable
2. NEat coumns and rows drawn with a ruler
3. Units included in the first column or row

Graphs
Needs:
Heading, axes with units, scale at least 2/3 of graphing area is used to provide clarity, clear data points with crosses, line/curve of best fit

Note: Exams will often ask questions on how the experiment can be improved. A way to not answer this is by saying 'make sure the electronic balance is accurate' because it is not specific enough. In order to improve on this answer focus on how the experimental design might limit the validity or reliability of the practical. Where are the errors? How ccan we reduce their impacts? Was everything standardised so that the independent variable influenced the dependant variable? Were there adequae repetitions? Did the experiment allow us to measure what we wanted to measure

Also know your HSC verbs

My teacher used to always say REPEAT FOR RELIABILITY in year 7 whenever I see a question on how an experiment can be more accurate, my teacher's wise words always comes to mind. ._.

Reliability is consistency.

That's why for a first hand investigation, repetition is a good way of ensuring it.

If you were doing a second hand investigation though what does "repeat" even mean

Idk why people study up to 12

Some people "work better at night". And then you got people that leave things to the last minute.

You could say they're damaging their health, but as if you can really comment

Anyone can critique at a certain issue.

But I'm a hypocrite [emoji1]
