Dude!

It's barely been 4 days since the Unit 4 exam!

We haven't even started Unit 5 yet!

Our teacher couldn't be bothered to start teaching Unit 5 on last Friday, so we just watched Tennis for an hour and a bit!

We've covered Redox equilibria / Electrode potentials, and are on our way to finishing off Thermodynamics (on Gibbs atm) :smile:

Do you think its possible for me to start learning CHEM5 now and still get an A?

Of course, there is time to get even A*, as long as you put your head down and start cracking, if you find a difficult topic feel free to post questions or ask me personally.

Yeah I am an AS student, trying to compelete both A-level Biology and Chemistry in one year as a private candidate, I still have not begun any work for Chem 4 or Chem 5 yet as i've been busy with the practicals :biggrin:

D I have entered myself for both of them in June, its going to be a tough slog for the next few weeks, I need A*'s to get in to medical school so thats inspiration for anyone who believes there is not enough time and your not alone :biggrin:

Ah, CHEM5...

I love the way it lulls you into a false sense of security with the few chapters.

Starting to remember the colours and formula of the TM complex ions though.

We've got Period 3 to go yet but that's our final chapter... everything else is just solid revision until the exam.
