Are you referring to the 2010 KBT paper?

There are none. . . .

Nah, Martoman speaks the truth; KBT and Neap are very good exams. Can't think of any other particularly good/conceptually probing exams at the moment..

Lisachem are also quite difficult, not necessarily in the questions that they ask, but the sheer amount of work required to answer some of them. I'd definitely give them a go if you've got some more spare time...

Is it better than the unit 3 paper? Because that was quite doable, I thought.

hmm...it's definitely doable, I haven't really found any exam in any subject to be impossibly hard. It's more a matter of you lose way more marks on this than on the average trial paper.

Ah, ok. Like the unit 3 one I thought was nice and I didn't lose any marks.. I'll give this one a go tomorrow, I think.

Only "to an extent" because you're awesome at Chem. :P
