The hess law and the data book value were difficult for me because I didn't study or do enough questions on them, those were for like 7 marks, I think I still got 2 marks on them, and if I did the hess law question right, then I think i might have aced the exam so well. But all in all even if I don't get it right, I still think I EASILY got an A. What did you guys get the value for the hess law question? I remember for me it was like exothermic and like around the thousands maybe I think i got 3000, can someone who is well educated on this tell me the answer, or at least what you got and what you think is right?

I think you shouldn't discuss exam questions right now due to different times zones, some people are still doing the exam

I was actually afraid of this, are we going to be in trouble or something? Or are we good?

True, There's only 1-2 hours difference for IAL.

So please wait about 6 hours before discussing.

It's fine, just edit out your post above, on the exam.

I also appeared for this exam by the way.

Discussion should be fine after some hours.

Yeah, I think so.

I thought the paper was simple, but of course that's only on the surface. There could have been a lot of things that I only felt like I got right but actually didn't.

What was everyone's hess's law enthalpy value?

My enthalpy value was around -3000 or something like that. Althouhh I ****ed up the easiest question ever of 3 marks. So so far I'm losing a maximum of 8 marks. God if I don't get an A on this I am going to be genuinely so damn upset. I am already stressing out over it instead of studying for unit 2. DAMMIT!!!! AHHH. What did you guys get for hess law?

The people I asked got a huge range of values. Some got -500, some 300 something. I messed it up. I got -1500-ish. I feel as though the boundaries will be a little high since the paper was so simple. When I came out of the hall I could hear 99% of the people going, "That was so easy! It went SO well!!!"

Did you get the two MCQs about the ionic radii right? The one with the graphs.

I thought i was prepared so well i didnt revise alot before the exam.Now I may aswell be loosing around 8-12 marks excluding anything which i thought was right but wasn't. How high do u guys think the grade boundary can be considering that july boundaries r always high amd january r pretty low as compared?

Yeah we got those mcq questions, those were really easy for me.

Jesus you're worrying me so much. I am going to facepalm so hard if I don't get this A. I think the range of the hess law should have been around -100 to a maximum of -990. That makes the most sense to me tbh.
If the A grade can stay below 68 then I am sure I am getting an A. Other than 7 or 8 marks I would say I nailed the exam. But 7 or 8 is still high for an easy exam like this. Especially considering that there are a few questions one can easily mess up on. Even with a buffer of losing 5 more marks, I still think I'll get an A. January 2015 was also easy like this one and that boundary was like 61 which is crazy low. I should really just stop worrying about this because I am almost 96% sure I am getting an A but my mind I just making me stress out so much. If I had to predict a mark, I'd say I get a 70/80. Which is really good and if edexcel raise to anymore than that, then I am just going to call them out as absurd.

my enthalpy change was 3031 but i forgot to put the sign so pretty much losing 1 mark...i think A grade will be approximztely at 64-65

Yeah I notice that as well. I would honestly guess that they'd put it at around 67. That seems like a right amount number imo. Considering I feel like I got all the mcq questions right, because I revised them hard, because I still had 30 minutes to spare, I don't think I should be leaking any more marks than a maximum of 10.

i think for A grade it will be around 54
