I personally would start revision now, even if its 30 minutes a day it will just reduce you with the amount of workload and revision you will have to do as the exam gets closer especially if you are resiting any exams!

Knockhardy and chemguide are the best for explaining things. The CGP book is pretty good too.

I have seen people say this in my school and all over the forums in TSR. Sounds pretty suspicious, either they marked it really harshly or they didn't mark it properly. I would recommend a remark and then ask for your exam paper back! So you think you are gonna resit?

I'll be honest with you, when I came out the exam hall after the paper I thought the maximum I get wrong will be 15 and thats it, but turns out I get 30 wrong which I DEFINITELY know cannot be! I depends really hope a remark can improve the score otherwise I guess I'll have to resit it, what about you? did you do the paper? I have ordered my paper-back lets see how they marked it!

No I didn't do the paper, its just a load of year 13s who resat the paper only got 5-10 ums higher than what they previously got which didn't changed there grade massively. Hope this does not happen to me in June!

same, I revised loads, there was nothing I didn't know the answer to on the paper, thought I'd got a C at the very least...
do schools tend to pay for the remarks or will I probably have to pay?

Thanks for setting up the forum! I just scraped an A on f321 exam with 72/90 UMS points. Very happy it's an A but I wish I scored more UMS points.

Does anyone know the definitions for:
-E/Z isomerism.
-Cis/trans isomerism.

Also I'd be really grateful if someone could please explain the difference. I'm a bit confused. Thanks. :smile:

Yeah you could say you get 130/150 ums in the second exam and 52/60 ums in your coursework which would equal as a total if 247 ums which would mean you would get an A overall as an A is 240 ums!

Hope this helped :smile:
