Practice 10 year papers and try to master your weak points with the mistakes you have made...
And the day before exam, just review every key points from the book and go through all the papers you have completed...
THATS IT....

I have a feeling im screwing it up! but Inshallah hope we all do good! Do you know how much we need to get in total to score an A? like all 3 papers

I've always wondered this - if we all agree that MCQ in Chemistry are a nightmare and that we can barely get higher than 30s then why is the curve always above 30 ;_; *insert dramatic music*

OMG! yes! I ASK MYSELF THE SAME QUESTION. I really wish its lower than 30 this year

Not always!

Here it was 24 for variant 1 and 3 and exactly 30 for variant 2!

And here around 27 -28! so, its not above 30!
Yes in June 11, some variants had 31 but one of the variants had below 30! So we should be optimistic that this year curve will be in shaa Allah below 30 as recent years had it like that!
Good Luck!

Do the pastpapers then write down the concept of the questions you made a mistake on or were confused about. I did that and believe me made a whole list of new concepts i never knew. MCQs will be different almost always so you need very strong concepts

 

[Mariam Mohamed SX132]

Yes I actually started doing that it helps! Thank you though

What do u think should be done the nyt b4 the exam, taking into account that i will have max. 3-4 hours... ?
should i solve more or try to revise the important points?

 

[Mariam Mohamed SX132]

The night before the exam I can do a paper or 2 as a final revision, revise important notes ! The day I have the exam I wake up check xtremepapers to see if there are any useful last minute tips, have breakfast and relaaaaaax!
