Title: Official FSN Chemistry Units 3/4 2008 Exam
Post by: kingmar on December 09, 2007, 02:26:18 pm
Yes, after the stellar success of enwiabe's methods exams, I've decided we can release some Chemistry exams as well. coblin and I will be writing the exam, and we'll keep you posted on its progress.

Progress Update 1: Don't expect this for a looong time, but I guarantee it'll be out a couple of months before midyears. :D

The bulk of the work has been given to kingmar, so props to him. I'm just going to be filling in the gaps (the new parts of the course).

It won't be published as an official FSN paper unless you endorse it anyway. It would just be coblin & kingmar's paper otherwise, LOL.

If it's decent, I'll whack FSN's name on the cover and credit your names individually for writing it.

I should note that these exams won't go up on the site until 3 weeks to go, simply because otherwise schools will simply say "just go to the website" instead of printing them off and distributing them. Now, whilst you may say "HEY THAT'S A GOOD THING!", we all know how lazy VCE students are. They're more likely to just do the printed ones rather than just print them off themselves. So, this way, if they're not online, the schools will print them off for students and include them in exam booklets or else will at least e-mail them around FROM a staff e-mail with the other exams, rather than just say "go to the website" hence there'll be more exposure.

:)

Anyway, </endrant>

I don't mind throwing in a few hard questions of my own

All help is welcome.

Update? I've confirmed 12 MC and written three short answer.

I'm debating whether to attempt to ramp up the difficulty, but VCAA itself hasn't taken that path in recent years.
