I thought that it went very well - I was pretty much hoping that the questions that came up would come up and they did so pleasantly surprised! How did it go for you?

Everyone said that the extended paper 4 was really difficult but I was pleasantly surprised. I thought the multiple choice was tricky though

It is always refreshing to see the paper start on a table about the charges and size of protons, neutrons and electrons.
I think it was alright overall. What did everyone put for the black solid?
carbon, how about you?

terylene was correct
For the bond energy question on paper 4, did people get 275 or 115. There is confusion in my year.
its Terylene
I found the multiple choice harder than paper 4, but tbh I was dreading the extended theory paper but I acc knew the answers to more questions that I thought I would. For me it was one of those exams where I'm not entirely sure how well I did, but oh well so glad it's over :smile:
