Did 4 years worth of past papers so far and I think I’m gonna stop there. I feel like I know the content, but I keep making silly mistakes and then the error carries through the rest of the question 😭 Like if I mess up part (a) and then have to use that answer in (b) and (c), everything ends up wrong even when the method is right
Do I lose all the marks?
I’ve always believed that the right person comes at the right time and that the universe works the way it does for a reason so I should just wait for the person meant for me. But ever since I was maybe 14–15, I’ve had this quiet fear that I might never actually find the loml. Not because I wanted it at that age obviously but because the thought somehow never left me.
I’m 19 now and I’ve never been in a relationship, never held hands with a guy, never even been in a situationship and honestly I don’t think anyone has liked me like that before. At school I’m kind of known as the “perfect student” type so one of my teachers once told me maybe I seem intimidating because I prioritise academics so much, but lately I’ve started wondering if maybe it’s my looks, or because I never went to parties, or because I’m just not the kind of girl people see romantically. I don’t know I have a lot of insecurities about it.
Well tbh I’m actually a pretty outgoing person. I may have a small circle, but I’m open to talking to anyone and I genuinely enjoy meeting people. But ever since turning 18 especially, my own bsfs have started making jokes about how I’ve never had any romantic experience at all😭. They don’t mean harm most of the time but uk after hearing it over and over it genuinely gets to me
And yes, I’ve watched all of them go through relationships and all the ups and downs and deep down I know I don’t want to date just for the sake of it. I want something real so I’ve been waiting instead of forcing things but sometimes everyone around me makes me feel like waiting means I’m hopeless, undesirable, or behind in life
I know 19 is still young logically but idk if Im behind in life
Would like to know if anyone felt this way or honestly any advice for me to stop feeling this way lol
Genuinely have no idea how to study for theory, haven’t touched the book since I bought it
Any short notes that would be enough?
Guys what was the control variable
What were the two errors at step 7 and 10
What was the actual diameter
And umm what feature allows to plan to survive in wetland
Assuming I lost like around 10 marks so like 30/40 for the practical paper, what should I aim for the Mcq and structured questions to get an A like even if it’s a low A (I know it depends on the threshold but let’s assume it’s a high threshold for all 3 papers combined)
Guys when I write my answer in moles, to what number of significant figures do I write them?
Can’t physically explain how awful 9709 Paper 12 was for me like I got a high A in mocks genuinely liked Pure 1 way more than Mechanics/Stats, and I grinded so many past papers. I even got myself down to finishing in 1h15 (with a few silly mistakes but yea).
Then 2 minutes before going into the exam I see the ppl in my grade all smiling and hear the paper got leaked. I didn’t really care at the time because what was I supposed to do in 120 seconds? I really thought I was well prepared but somehow all the hours and days of practice meant nothing once I realised I was only on Question 5 after 1 hour 10 minutes (it was never like that when I practiced)
Thats when I started panicking. After that, nothing made sense. I couldn’t even solve a basic SOHCAHTOA question. My brain just fully shut down.Then afterwards I found out more than half (maybe less) of the world that took v2 got close to full marks. And worst part is I’m mentally exhausted from today to focus or have hope in any other exam cuz it’s likely it’s gonna happen again and again and again and my dreams for getting As go down the drain!
What theory chapters do I need to know from the book for practical (besides stoichiometry) or do I just need to know the procedures and tests?
