I found this website. called www.technocratnotes.com . I found it very useful for chemistry. can you add it to your original post so that anyone who finds out about this thread knows about this.
Hi everyone,

It's not okay to discuss ISA/EMPAs on TSR as these are all sat at different times by different people. Discussing them gives an unfair advantage to those who haven't sat the exam yet. Here's the announcement that explains everything.

Just so you know, the Community Team and exam boards do monitor TSR for discussion of these exams, so please don't talk about them.

Good luck with your revision :dumbells:
Resitting chem 1 as I got an E in it last year, hoping to get a B/A in it this year but I feel like its a long shot :frown:

The exams gonna be solid. These only us A2 kids re doing it.
I'm resisting unit 1
I'm just doing a past paper - January 2010
Question 5b
Asks us to write the electron configuration.
I gave the full electron configuration whereas the mark scheme gives it in the form of the shortened electron configuration form.
Do I lose a mark?

How's everyone's revision going? I still haven't finished the course. I've still got redox, oxidation, reduction to learn as well as two whole modules in inorganic chemistry... :angry:Although I've been doing a lot of past papers & I feel suprisingly confident :biggrin:
