Hahaha.. It was harder than the previous year.. I didn't get the Mass thingy. The rest is manageable.
Application is easier than last years.

1. Finished except for mass spec.
2. Core section is more demanding. Perhaps because core has always been "book-work recall" type.
3. Threshold for A may be 50-60
4. I expect to score at least 80.
5. Paper was a bit long, given that some part questions require more thinking than the other 'standard' types.
