I'm taking Chemistry and Maths on Saturday and hopefully Physics in the interview (I asked to change from maths)

So scared about the Chemistry, if they ask about empirical formula or electrolysis- I'm screwed.

Thanks but English is my main (and only?) strong point aha, and I'm 9-11 at the halls.

Me too! I'm in the 2000s and I applied relatively early so the boundaries are probably really high

Have you done the maths papers on the HWSF website?
If so how did you find it?

I'm not the person you quoted (oops) but I did the maths paper on the website and found it fairly easy apart from one or two questions, but I don't think it'll be representative of the actual exam which will probably be much harder.
