I found it quite difficult actually.. And my strength out of all the 3s in P3
Really? Was there a specific area which you found difficult, or was it the whole paper in general? My strong area of science is in physics aswell, but I expected the exam to be much harder than it turned out to be. How did you find the C3 exam? I found it quite difficult to be honest.

Same, i know ive lost around 4 marks, just hoping its enough to get me an A*. P3 was one of my favorites out of all the science units. Slightly annoyed with myself, dreading to find an A in the next two months.

I think the second question was quite unexpected because I hadn't come across that kind of analogy to do with gases, the paper wasn't "hard" but I have done better papers in the past. For the C3, it was ok, but again there was a few challenging areas, however I did revise things like Ethyl Ethanoate very well so I am hoping for a minimum A.

We just have to bare in mind that this is just 25% of our grade, so an A or A*, along with consistent As & A*s (including the controlled assessment), should boost our grade up very nicely..

People dream of being in your position, don't flaunt it!
What????? And by the way if you need an A* for the AS what do you need for the full A Level?
You need an A* to guarantee a spot in the course, which included both AS and A level (cant just do AS). And if I get an A then it means I'd be on the list for spare places :/

The new A Level is what it says, a full two year course with all the exams at the end of two years. The As is not part of that any more and is a separate one-year qualification with exams at the end of the year.

Just gotten used to saying AS as the first year, and A level being the second year of the course. Not sure if that makes much sense.
