Hi fellow senior scientists,
I think everyone would have got their first assessment for lifestyle chemistry which involves testing a manufacturer's claim. Now I've gone through validity, reliability, and just basically going through experiments. Any other advice on what to study/how to practice for this assesment? I really want to do well [I guess that's everyone's aim ;) ]
All help is always appreciated.

Thank you

Hmm... I never did Senior Science, but in the other sciences that I did, when they want you to assess a claim, you should heavily criticise all points that are presented - regardless of whether the claims are true or not. If they're true, you just say that it's a valid claim. If it's false, you say it's false, and say why it's false, giving your experimental evidence and conclusion from experiment to back it up. If it's partially true, say "This part of the claim is not true, as _____________. However, it would be true if ________________ " or something like that, just make it up.
