My friends just had their exam today. And FYI, they said it was surprisingly tough. Beats me, I'm Chem-less :D

well then hopefully they lower the grade threshold  :-\
which paper are they taking By the way? variance 1 or 2?

I thought it was extremely tough. There wasn't ANY equilibria and all. Those are usually easy marks. No electrolysis. 3 ORGANIC QUESTIONS!

ps. i'm talking about variant 2

oh that's variant 1 then.. so apparently variant 2 is harder..  :'(
depends on the grade threshold..
for may june 2009 it was pretty low.. 42 marks to A..
but for one of  the 2008 paper, 48 is required to get A  :o

hopefully this time the grade threshold will be low..
