exams should be canceled for the sake of the environment

there should be a ban on shit trial papers made by lisachem and tsfx. answers to trial exams shouldnt be 33 pages long aswell...

insight are the culprits of these long solutions

Insight bio papers have their answers highlighted on the MC questions. So you have to print all the mc questions again, instead of 1D 2C 3A 4C...etc

I print everything off, on the computer there is too much distraction

I hated marking the insight paper, it took so long from the scrolling.

really you have to give it to VCAA for easy to mark papers.

I did 6 for mid years, and 4 for end of years. I got 49. I didn't really like doing practice exams tbh.

I've done bits and specks of about 6-8, totaling about 2 full exams (doing only questions relating to topics I've finished studying).

I'm screwed.

they could really ask anything, no one knows what could happen this year (except the writers of course).

Y not? It's just the atoms in the top-left hand corner of the bases as shown in the data book.

data book.

And i really hope not despite much practice its one of the worst things lol. that, and having to draw a complete nucleotide would be up there with the worst possible things they could throw at you i reckon. so time consuming and so easy to get wrong

I know someone who's pretty intelligent (he got into med) that did about 40 trial exams, and still only got a 37 in chem...
How ironic

hmmmmm well apparentely the magic number is 20, done 6 myself.....slowly improving.....very slowly......and it's depressing concidering i started at 48 % for my first paper :S


I find it frustrating that I will do a self assessment on M/C and near always get ~50%. I've done 6 so far
