Bad SAC score
« on: June 04, 2019, 06:45:48 pm »

I’m in year 11 doing Chem 1/2 and am extremley worried for next year as this year I’m trying my hardest and doing very poorly:
Periodic table properties sac: 53%
Moles SAC: 83%
Organic Chemistry SAC: 66%
I know it’s stupidly ambitious but I really want a 40+ next year but at the moment is out of my reach. Before every sac I make flash cards, do practise textbook questions, worksheet booklet etc but I’m still unable to yield the results I’d like. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it possible for me to reach my goal? (40+ ss in year 12 and I guess >80% SACs this year)

you sound just like me  :)

im also aiming for a 40 ss but my average right now is 67.5 ( I'm looking to change that in mid year exams though)

What mistakes do you do on your SACS, do you know the content inside out? Or is it just silly errors?

Dumb mistakes: like in moles I left of some sig figs, had the write formula for empirical but plugged in the numbers wrong. Then for the organic Chem sac I got everything write except I left a few key words off and drew valence structure as electron shell configuration. I also changed a pyramidal to trigonal  planar last minute out of anxiety 🤦‍♀️ So yeah dumb mistakes. I understand which I guess is good enough for year 11 right?
