Chem p33 grade thresholds? My paper went terribly :'(

[Noyb Lol]

Got a bunch of faulty apparatus so I had to really rush.

 

[Tasneem Mahmood Chowdhury]

hmm..u got too....In my case,I got faulty buirrette,faulty pipette,even bad,contaminated distilled water,everything bad...!!I informed the invigilator time to time about the faulty stuffs and whenever they replaced anything they took literally"ages"to replace the materials..they don't give extra time for their own fault!!cuz I asked one invigilator guy whether I will be given extra time for THEIR delay or not...during examination he says "yes" and at the end when no one gives me extra time..he says nothing!! in fact, he SIMPLY LIES ON MY FACE that he didn't say anything before whereas he had replaced my apparatus by his own hand!!...my exam went terribly bad and simply because of deteriorated environment of CIE...this is an international examination and we are buying their service...they should maintain quality...not only on apparatus but on hiring some (least!!)educated invigilators...
PS:not all the invigilators are bad but there are ppl who don't deserve to be here...sad but true..

 

[confused_soul]

i had a faulty burret and pippet :'(

 

[msohiabch]

totally doomed hope so gt should be around 25 or less and i also pray for gt lesser then 25. paper did not complete in time and faulty equipment with faulty solutions..

 

[mujtabashahnawaz]

Burettes were faulty! Anyone reported to CIE about this?

 

[angelicsuccubus]

oh dont worry... I had the master of all horrible exams.. I mixed up the solutions..screwed up the titrations, didnt do the calculations.. and god only knows what I wrote on the second q. and I love chem practials.. so there must be more of idiots like me out there, gt will be low inshallah

where were you guys giving the exam that the apparatus was so faulty?

 

[sammykhan123]

i didnt get fa4...got 2 fa7.......lol...and my centre was jinnah medical...apparatus was excellent..but very little working space and no ventilation system...the titration was so lengthy....

 

[Yousuf Ykr]

Anyone knows, how to send complain to Cambridge....

 

[Saad Sarfraz]

This practical literally went shit. I dont know what was fault in my apparatus or chemical :/ did the first titration nicelyy got 24.90 cm3 for the 2nd Titration my methyl orange faded away as soon as dropped it into the beaker with the acid :/ and tried this 5 times repeating from scratch still the same thing happened in the end copied the answers of the person beside me and 25.20 and in the end it turned out that half the students in the lab had 23-25 mean for the 2nd titration and for the same 2nd titration the other half had 16-19. Im screwed btw there is the system of ECF( error carried forward ) right + i did put the values in right order although one is horribly in accurate :/

[mujtabashahnawaz]

Centre : Beaconhouse Fsd

 

[samwickz]

i screwed up pretty bad to didnt have tym and titration was pretty messed up 4 poor me im soooooooooooooo done

 

[mujtabashahnawaz]

purity?

 

[OakMoon!]

GT would be around 28. It was a lengthy paper. First question was long but the calculations were simple.

 

[Bulltyro]

Guys I am writing a report directly on the empty spaces of my answer sheet on my upcoming chem p34 is this kind of b****mentioned above happens to me (faulty chemicals and equipment).
What do you guys think?

Please refrain from using bad language. Admin XPC.

 

[zenyatales]

Bulltyro, I don't think that'd be appropriate. You get a separate sheet for that from the invigilators .. I heard so.

Anyways, did anything predicted yesterday come at all ??
