Yeah I am :/ anyone else really nervous?!! I found the specimen papers really hard I really hope grade boundaries are low for the new specifications!!
Anyone know which experiments we need to know about? Are they the same as the ones on the old specification?

Anybody predict what may come up? those specimen papers were shocking.
Did you teachers give you any tips or hints?

My teacher said to definitely revise all the quark combinations for particles and also he definitely thinks there will be a question on moments on either paper! But I am absolutely bricking it! AHHHHHH!!!! :ahhhhh:

Does anyone know if you lose marks if you don't have the right amount of sig figs for the questions which don't say you have to use the right amount of significant figures?

I wouldn't think so, but it's better to round the final answer to the same number of significant figures as the given values in the question.

Do you have the textbook? They should all be in there.
Do we need to know how to calculate the Ionisation energy!?

I cant find it on the 2016 spec anywhere.
