EXAM, stuffed or not (2 Viewers)

[bubby]

Are you stuffed for chemistry on friday?

 

[Ozz^E]

NO..not really..is there any reason we should be?

 

[Ronnie]

should be finnnnnnneeeeeeeee

I hope.... as long as they don't ask me any battery questions or calculations with titrations

 

[superhubert]

damn, after reading the title i thought we got to vote on whether the exam sucked before we actually took it..... but that wont stop me,
I THINK THE EXAM SUCKED, WHAT ABOUT Q 12? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? WHAT DID YOU GUY'S THINK? DOWN WITH BOS, DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

 

[--insomniac--]

Well i didnt even pass my school trials (james ruse one)
is it just me or was there a lot of calculations and pracs in it??
cos i havent the first idea about calculations so i had walked in thinking 'at least i know all the theory' and hoped that it would constitute about 70-80% of the exam but blah
teachers were very pedantic in the words u had in your answers.
So yeah basically, im screwed.

I Hate chemistry so very very very very very much. Not coz i dont understand it. But coz its boring, its pointless and the worst of all its not one of those subjects that u can cram overnight and get a descent mark in the exam the next day.

But i think im gonna do alright

I hope they don't ask too many questions on identifying anions and cations because I can't be bothered to remember all those tests, nor all the flame test colours. I don't like "Chemical Monitoring & Management" module much at all because my teacher rushed us through it too fast without doing pracs on it also. The ozone stuff is also quite boring too. I reckon the option "Shipwrecks and Salvage" is probably the maddest module in Chemistry because it's so straight forward and I love electrochemistry. Carbon chemistry, acids+bases, and nuclear chemistry likewise aren't so bad. I love questions where you have to calculate stuff (e.g. titrations) rather than "critically analyse" style questions that are stupid and you just have to write a lot.

errr... i'm not going to kick arse, but i think i'll do more than just pass.

my guestimate is 75-85 raw.

 

[BlackJack]

It depends on how you define the word, 'kick ass' I s'pose...
85 and above would be kicking ass I think, looking at the amount in the syllabus, the state average and the few people in band 6 last year....

:torch: :sniper: :uzi: :axedeath:

 

[superhubert]

hmm. i got 69 raw in trial. my mate got 7. and it was suppose to be a pretty easy test.....
i've learnt a bit since then, but not that much...
do any of you guys believe in life after death?

 

[luigi]

i'd be happy with something in band 5 ~~~

i think im okies for chem tomoz....

bit of bs here and there, shud be ok...

Teacher's are only pedantic about the wording of answers, because that's exactly how it is in the hsc exam!!!

In our trial, I knew about 95% of the material, and I knew exactly what I was talking about in my answers, but because I didn't use the words required in the marking guidelines, my mark was umm...68% I think....

That's exactly why the comments from last year's markers include:
"students can benefit by more precise and scientific use of terminonogy, especially that specified in the syllabus"

I dunno about you guys, but tonight I'm learning my terminology!!

GOOD LUCK to you all!!

Remember, it's not worth stressing about!! The more relaxed you are, the more you remember.

 

[Ace-Pilot]

LoL, Great thanx alot chicken now i know im REALLY screwed.

 

[Mathematician]

...

Acepilot do u really get tutored one half of the year?
That would be awesome.
For me that would rule since i learn all my work independently.
I dont know why but at school i am not active at all to do work.
Tutors would force me to learn concepts and stuff.

Are u even allowed to do that?
I wanna.
