Veeery ugly paper left 10 marks anyway and dunno about the rest. Saddening experience. Everyone I know found it hard. Much worse reaction than biology P4.

Hmmm yeah that was pretty hard too. lets see what others say. Thankfully my p2 and p5 went well enough so if p3 and p1 go good then A* is still possible.

The toughest question for everyone at my center was the 10 mark Organic Q. I have seen in the past, where question that can get wrong completely like this one.... The gt falls. So lets hope for the best.

Same situation here.. p2 and p5 went really well. I think a total of around 190-200 will be needed for A*

Same. I did 2008-2016 most the papers including variants for organic.. but no way did i found a question that was this tough.. My thought for this question is that even though it was tough, it would have been possible to solve it in like 30 minutes. It required a lot of information to be processed. I am getting a max 1/10 :p :cry:

how was the other part i wasted time in the organic and it affected the rest
overall there were a few part here and there that were tough.. The Kstab Q i found pretty challenging. The 2 mark Q where n was to be found i got wrong... I did a lot wrong. Expecting around 70-73

Man I don't even wanna talk about it like wtf. I found it to be harder than MJ 2016. MJ 2016 had questions that were doable but this paper some were just completely new. I hope I get 75+.
similar expected totals :p 75 is pretty good for A* if you expect good in AS.. :)
