Every science/maths OCR topic has had a very hard paper, paper 1&2 chemistry haven't been THAT hard so we all know what it means. Good luck everyone.

Taking everything into account, 100%. I'm surprised why my school chose OCR in almost all major subjects.

Paper 1 was decent but paper 2 was so bad , people in my school came out crying after that paper.

i think lots of the colour changes and stuff will come up for example when reacting ligand complexes with ammonia and the ones in elements of the sea, redox titrations were in paper 1 so don't expect too much, tlc and gl chromatography might come up and maybe the arrhenius equation and LOTS of synthesis questions since they weren't really in paper 1 and 2 much

That was ok

How did people find it ?

What did u write for the first question

Is that the one about ozone?
If so it’s a primary pollutant which makes up a photochemical smog that’s causes respiratory issues

No because it only asked for it in kilojoules

i think this paper was really different to past papers. there was literally no practical skills except the extract. and also the last question was just so hard to digest and make sense of. feel like definitely harder than any other past paper
