Howd you go on the chem exam?

[samiira]

What did people get for the balanced complete combustion of benzoic acid???

Fkn balancing too ages!! LOL

Hm i think overall it wasn't too bad, considering i barely studied for it (2 prac exams) and had around 6.5 hrs of sleep. I agree that some questions were weird though.

haha me too, i did six exams and had about 5 hours of sleep, but i also had two spoonfuls of instant coffee mixed with a teeny bit of hot water before my exam... it made me jittery,.

i onbly had two hours of sleep last night...because my brain didn't want to switch off. it then took me ages this morning to understand what the questions were asking...
and then when it came to the balancing....bleurgh.

my sleep deprivation screwed me up too :/

[happycat]

I always make sure I get plenty of sleep so that I don't get screwed.

Im so peved at our person that like  looked over us doing the exam, because on Q6 she said that the Eo values were wrong so we had to make them all negative, but it was just supposed to be the acutal electrons in the equations, grrrr so pissed coz know i got it wrong, they shouldnt be able to make marks wrong for that coz its not my fault, I wanna complain!!!!!

Look, there are numerous people who got fucked over by this.  You should all get together, and go to VCAA and just not leave until they agree to give the marks or remove the question.  Make a petition.  Don't just winge on here.  Make sure something is done about it.

Moreover, go to the newspaper and do to VCAA what that girl did to IGGS.

My mum works at the CBA and her branch was in an article yesterday because one of the customers had a sook about no miniutes silence, and one of the staff members told him that they could not stop working, so he threatened to go to the Herald Sun and quoted what she said, and they put it in an article ROFL.

If this rubbish can make the newspaper, then this, which is far more important, should easily be reported.

Nothing would thrill me more than to see an article in the newspaper listing out all of VCAA's stuff ups, including the dance exam in the chem exam data book, the missing MC answer sheets for several exams, and the electron debacle which happened yesterday.

Some media pressure might get them to clean up their act.

That is not the problem.

Some stupid exam supervisors gave students the wrong directive, and told them to change the E naught value, which was detrimental to their answer.

They work for VCAA, and have a lot to answer for.

This could end up in the Herald Sun lol

Ohh nooo. No one will take it seriously if it does..

true that!

a current affair is our highly reputable medium of choice to break this injustice to the public

Contact the VCAA and they'll either scrap the question or award marks for using the wrong E0 value.

It's a fairly standard thing to do when there are errors in papers

they will NEVER scrap the question.

What I don't understand is what on earth you did if all of the values were negative?? I mean, you could only deduce that the E naught value of silver half cell was higher than that of the hydrogen half cell from the experimental results. (that is, it was positive)...

i was just like well the least negative one will be the one that reacted... even tho it doesnt make sense, and wrote -0.22 V for silver
