extremely exhausted after the draining 2h45mins of chem paper 3. basically, i employed a new tactic this time round, in the hopes of saving my chem grades (which have always been in the doldrums). so, i began with organic chem. it was an easy section really, quite morale boosting, except that i lost 3m (due to inability to do one part on distinguishing chemical tests). then i moved on to food chem, which as usual, was the lamest section. comparing protein/vitamin/mineral content of skimmed milk vs. full cream milk? i was like, wtf? so food chem section was mostly crapped (say, -8m as a rough gauge). then i went on to inorganic chem, which proved to be interestingly un-tough, compared to all the crap we've been doing at school. it was quite well done. finally, i moved on to physical chem, the fattest section. "define relative atomic mass." lol? i was fumbling over that, and my acid base was a bit screwed up -_-', and i left out the drawing on electrode potential (duh.. i didn't mug that drawing). all in all, there were probably about 8m lost in that section.

which means i lost about 20 marks in all.. zzzzzz. so the max i can get is about 80, which means i'll probably get a B for this paper? that's quite a pathetic grade for a relatively easy paper. so am i screwed, or not?

shall not dwell on this matter. i'll just go mug bio. syllabus E,F,G,I,J left to study. gg.
