Hello Salters Students!
It has been a while but I've managed to find some excellent revision notes:

They are not specific to OCR Salters but I've taken a look and their pretty awesome.

Remember, if anything is difficult, you can always visit the 'chemguide'.

any 1 here got the june 2012 f331 paper? all i have is the examiner report -__-

That's unlikely. Exam papers usually arrive after 8 months from the original date.
However, why not check out this thread to get an idea of what the exam was like?

it's really helpful!

For those of you who like to revise from Chemical Ideas, you've probably already downloaded the mark scheme from the Internet.

However, this is a more updated and accurate mark scheme where the questions correspond to the answers and all exercises are covered. Check it out here: http://boswellsgmt.wikispaces.com/CHEMICAL+IDEAS

I have merged all of them in to one pdf because i find it easier, for others that may too it is here.

I also have the A2 answers somewhere i will upload them when i find it on my laptop :smile:

A good, decent, well presented, generally effective revision guide? I refuse to buy the one by the exam board that looks like it has just strolled out of the 1950s.

Cheers

Definitely go for CGP. They're revision guide can be found here: http://www.cgpbooks.co.uk/pages/pageFlip.asp?c=CRBR52

It's definitely worth it (as I own a copy) and many students have claimed that using just by using this revision guide and past papers, they have got an 'A' in AS Chemistry.

You should find the following notes very useful: http://www.scribd.com/collections/3614045/Chemistry-revision

They're pretty useful and probably the best F332 notes you'll find.

We are getting pretty close to exam season so I suggest that you start doing the F331 and F332 papers.

Hi I am doing A2 salters at the moment and I wanted to ask why is it considered such a terrible course? What's wrong with it? I am finding it alright.

Its the hardest chemistry board of all (harder than AQA, Edexcel, OCR A and WJEC). Thats why its considered a terrible course :L

Just wanted to ask you a question. When doing the F332 past papers, did you look at the corresponding advance notices, or did you directly do the past papers?
Thanks
