    Science is always hard for me and this was just that, though like sirboby, there wasn't a big question that I couldn't answer.

    Biology - Grand
    Chemistry - So annoyingly hard
    Physics - Meh

    It was specifically about the cardboard - which did not look like cardboard :p.

    A really nice paper. A bit upset that there were absolutely no chemical equations as I had crammed them in last minute. I feel really stupid because our teacher told us that they only gave us the periodic table and the elements' names weren't on the formulae book, even though they are (learned this after the exam). So I ended up doing god know's what for that question where we had to name the elements.
    Other than that loved the paper. Usually I'm destroyed in physics but there wasn't a lot of hard questions on it this year. Biology is always my best so it was grand this year.

    Haha our teacher told us that distillation wouldn't come up as an experiment that we'd have to draw so I had to wing the distillation apparatus diagram... Otherwise it was definitely a manageable paper, the pressure is really off now as far as exams are concerned for me :P
