STPM Term 3: Day 3

After a week break from the previous paper, I went back for the last paper for this term: Chemistry.

Now, chemistry is really a paper everyone feared.
1) Organic Chemistry is quite tough, especially for essay. Even if your memorising ability has served you well for many years, the questions could baffle you at first sight because essay questions really present themselves as an essay.
2) Whoever set the chemistry paper was really good, and overestimated Malaysian's intelligence. The questions for the second term was downright ridiculous (not too tough, but required real mind twisting we do not have time for).

This term, it's not that good as well. Objective questions were not straightforward and required some serious thinking. Subjective was okay but asking us for reaction between ethylamine and bromine was rather unexpected. Essay question was fine. I almost made a mistake that'll cost me 9 marks, but I've corrected it and hopefully it was correct.

Summary: Term 3 chemistry was much better than term 2 chemistry.

And this paper officially marks the end for STPM 2013.
