Maybe heaps of people in the state wrote the higher ones and they will give sympathy marks for misinterpreting the question.....(I hope)

Thats what I hope for the questions I mis-read aswell . never happens unfortunately.

yeah never happens, past exams have had
"many students interpretted this question" and it's like 90% 0 getting it.
it happens all the time, it'll be fine since it'll just lower the cutoffs by a mark or whatever (even though im sure more then 10% got it correct haha)

This for the double bonds question. 7 double bonds im starting to think aswell. But its just stupid tbh. however thats how the cookie crumbles?

Could you say not to use a bunsen burner as you have no control over the termperature Mao?

No, the temperature can be easily controlled by using adjusting the flame while looking at a thermometer.

it appears my motivation to study more this semester has elevated by so much, i am determined to do so much better at the end of year for the exam! so DONT WORRY everyone, we have 50% of our score to go, there's so much room for improvement.

At the moment, my motivation is hanging in the balance depending on the A+ cut-offs. >.>

Never knew you could change the temp...damn!

I saw "mixture is GENTLY heated" and thought, ahh can't do that with bunsen, thought I was clever lol.

Coming out, I thought I had a chance of getting A+ but from Mao's answers I'll be lucky to get an A. Bye bye study score

[stonecold]

Meh, atm I concede 2 marks. I'm just praying that I filled out the MC answer sheet right.

I also pray that a bug crawls into my paper and takes a shit on page 21, right in between the 1 and the 5 so it looks like there is a decimal point and reads 1.5 L haha...

this exam turned out harder than i thought lol!!!

[Studyinghard]

how many marks taken out for the 3.82% if I wrote 3.8% as my final answer? (I had written 3.82% above it )

[rubiks]

1 probably

Is there any chance of getting a decent study score with a B+ in this exam?

Depends what you define "decent" as
