I screwed up badly on multiple choice... Lost at least 2 marks there. Probably 3.
God knows how bad I did on SA.
There goes any chance of a good chem study score... can only hope Bio will save me...
I HATE YOU VCAA.  :tickedoff:

In retrospect, I've lost a few marks on MC and quite a few on SA. MC was tricker than I first thought. I'd expect the A+ cut-off to be somewhere in-between 80-90%; mainly due to question 4a. I got 4a correct, but 4b wrong!

The exam, in general, was not too difficult. However, there were those "subtle" questions, which I think may have thrown a lot of people off.

E.g. In the IR spectrum, which factor influences the wavelength, associated with the bond?" (I forgot the actual question, but the options were something like "electronegative, atomic radus, atomic mass" etc.)

From what I have been told, the answer was "atomic mass."

its electronegativity

Lol, lost 5 marks. MINIMUM. Very stupid mistakes that should have realized, but noo, had 30minute spare and got cocky. There goes my A+.

Probably same result here (although I finished with about 20mins). Probably lost most on MC, took me about 6 mins to get Q4 though, too much random info
