Half Time Report (rather late dun you think so?)
Heres a brief description of all the papers ive encountered so far and a difficulty rating out of 10 added (with 10 being the highest and 1 being the lowest...but ur supposed to be able to infer anyway right?)...
Social Studies
Rather easy paper. Too much time was spent on source based leaving quite a bit less time on the structured question. The structured was quite confusing for those who tried to spot questions but should be a rather easy paper overall.
Difficulty rating: 4/10
English Language 1
What can i say? Writing compositions is fun afterall. Some people said that there was not enough time to complete both parts(i actually thought that there was too much time). Some had even forgotten the format of writing a speech (but isnt that the easiest one?)...But anyway for the more English-inclined people, its a piece of cake...Sad thing is we cant perceive the result we are about to get just by doing it as it all lies in the hands of the marker. I had also written a narrative about a country in dictatorship...the marker may/may not like the essay...what if he/she said it was out of point and failed me just for that? Arrgh please like my story ok?...
Difficulty rating: 3/10
English Language 2
Ah...Comprehension...Overall it was quite easy however some marks will be lost like for vocab considering many people like myself do not know the meaning of jaunty(which means cheerful...but why is a flag cheerful?). Also some people did not know how to do the summary properly. Anyway quite an easy paper where observation is key to comprehending hehe.
Difficulty rating: 4/10
Physics 1
This is a very bad excuse for a guessing game...Nothing else to say...
Difficulty rating: 8/10
Physics 2
Quite ok other than the fact that the moments question confused many. Also, the light rays questions are very irritating. However once you get the right formula with the right values to use, it should be okay. Nonetheless it was still quite tough
Difficulty rating: 7/10
Chemistry 1
Quite an easy MCQ paper. Some thinking required here and there but quite ok overall.
Difficulty rating: 6/10
Chemistry 2
Errr...Lemme think...Isit hard or isit easy? Its an easy chem paper which is still quite hard for me considering that i am weak in chem. Some people thought it was hard too but most people who have studied would find it quite ok...I feel that there is too little time as well...
Lets go con chem yea...
Difficulty rating: 7/10
Geography 2
Screw this paper...Screw it screw it screw it!!! I studied so hard and yet the questions screwed me up. I didnt understand quite a number of them. Alot of ppl found it hard. Btw Y in the coast diagram is a wave cut platform and not an arch which many people thought it was. Stoopid paper...The natural resources question required quite a bit of infering as well...Hate case studies!! Toughest paper of all.
Difficulty rating: 9/10
History (Elective)
"Stalin!" (Clap* clap* clap* clap*)...Woohoo wad an easy paper...However, I spent too much time on the source based just like in social studies. I personally feel that there should be more time added as alot of people couldnt finish their structured questions on time. But overall its an easy paper.
Difficulty rating: 4/10
E Maths 1
Dam this paper. This paper makes me ANGRY!! THERES A REASON WHY E MATHS IS CALLED ELEMENTARY MATHS...ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DIFFICULT! OMG...i mean geography may and can be expected to be hard(though i will prefer it not to be) cos its not called Elementary geography right...HOWEVER YOU BLOODY PIECE OF E MATHS PAPER, YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BE HARD DAMMIT...UR ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE EASY OR ELEMENTARY!! Trying to con camp me eh? How about "Pyro's got a surprise reserved just for you awaiting your return..."...watcha gonna do, you useless piece of paper? Come con camp that, son of a dead tree!...
Difficulty rating: 8/10
A Maths 1
Emaths is called Emaths as it will give you an E8. On the contrary, Amaths is called Amaths as people who practice well enough will be rewarded with an A1 or A2...I love this paper. Nothing on trigo, functions or radian measure came out(thus i can say that paper 2 will be the killer)! However i must say there were some slips here and there and i lost quite a bit...Still enough to get an A however(if the teachers can read my super bad handwriting hah)...Anyway i dun understand why quite a number of people found it hard so im gonna give it an extra point in the difficulty rating.
P.S. Wanna have sets with me? hahaha...
Difficulty rating: 6/10
