Yet another exam Ive managed to cram the night before and come out of the exam room feeling pretty good. (but i did do some preparation on chemistry 2 weeks before the trials started)

Wasnt that hard imo. If you knew all your stuff, you would have done pretty well. As for me, I knew most of the stuff and then there was two questions in my option that i didnt know what to write. For one of them, I totally forgot equations needed to get the marks which i learn ten minutes prior the start of the chem exam. very disappointing.

ive done well in all my catholic trials until now.
and what made it even harder was that we wernt allowed to choose an option as we havnt learnt any yet! :burn:

my teacher replaced it with "his own" questions and fuck!
fuck they were hard.
u lucky bastards who go to schools with well educated teachers.
i still havnt even gotten 30% worth of assesments from term 1 and 2. i think they got my teacher off the streets.

I was reasonably happy with mine, finished half an hour early and estimated that id get at least 80%.
Some of the questions were a bit peculier, wasn't sure if they were trying to trick us with info we didn't need.

PLEASE NOTE:
Please don't post any questions or answers from the CSSA trials. As mentioned in the first post and by moderators in other threads, other schools may be completing these trial exams on a different day.

The CSSA trials are all meant to be held during the specified day and time. However, many schools reschedule them regardless.

So far all the trials ive done have been a bit easier. I was expecting something extremely difficult but there was nothing that totally stumped me.

I thought the multiple choice was pretty straight forward, short answer was alright as well although there were a couple of those "out of the syllabus" type questions that were the main stumbling blocks in the exam. THe shipwrecks module was fairly straight forward as well.

well seeing that i crammed an entire 2 year course in about 7 hours i think i did pretty well compared to my half yearlies although i did really bad in that exam 30%*cough* but i think i did ok...one of the 4 mark questions i didnt no so probably lost something there, i also have this feeling that our teacher changed questions 21-26 since they were think no-one in the class would no

question anyone else leave 1 hour early?

just did the chem trial today, and as i expected, it was the CSSA - thank goodness, if it was an exam my teacher prepared .. we would all be doomed.

the multiple choice qns were straight forward, the rest were ok but i know i screwed up the option part - shipwrecks, cause i didn't really study for it.
