Practice tests

"Pah-pah-pah!"

It's actually incredibly catchy.

Even if it is kinda about baseball.

And um.

Thanks guys. I guess I'm not all that bad.

Got back results from a Pre-Uni practice test thing, and I'm fairly surprised. I mean, I got like a 90 for Chem, and an 82 for Phys.

 Which is pretty good.

19 for Mod A, 20 for Mod B, 17 for Mod C.

And I know exactly who marked them... The english ones anyway.

The comment was "Ditch Baudrillard"

And I'm like ">.> I know it was you....."

Had a course in Mod C over there, and the tutor kept telling me that he was outdated.

Going to ask around and see if it's ok to go ahead with using it or not. No-one else has had a problem with it so far.

I wish I had my answers though. They were pretty good. Esp my mod B.

They asked for a speech. I gave one.

Something about enduring power.

"Good decision on Hamlet's relationship with Ophelia"

I think I said something like...

Hamlet wants to save her and pushes her away, but he's also disillusioned with her, which causes him to act cruelly.

Or something. I wish I had my answers..

And I know it's the same tutor for Mod A and C because of the handwriting and the comments which I got during the classes, but cbf to change. I didn't see much point - will probably consult the necrosages.

Well, English teachers.

Forgot the IUPAC name for Citric Acid.

2, Hydroxy-Propane 1,2,3, Tricarboxylic Acid, right?

I forgot the hydroxy.

2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid

Yea, that's what wiki says.

Oh... wrong place for dashes... eh.

Yuck.

Catalyst for Dehydration of Ethanol is Phosphoric OR Sulfuric acid right? I have a feeling I wrote Sulfuric and they marked it wrong.

Transuranic? What did I get wrong... :L

...........

Naming esters.

Acid => Alkanoate

Alcohol => Alkyl

Ethanoic Acid and Propanol is Propyl Ethanoate, right?

Yea!

What the hell. >.>

Alc -> Alk

Aci -> Oate

That's sorta how I remember it. Phonetically.

.... Esterfication reaction. I swear I put equilibrium arrows, and few drops conc. H2SO4 catalyst.

Still, 90 isn't too bad.

BUT STILL.

...... Barium Sulfate equation ?.?

....... Never going preuni ever again. Ever. Worst place.

Did worse in Phys, which was not what I expected.

Formal invitation. It's pretty :O

Did not expect a proper invitation, tbh. Oh well.

Wow, it's only 4.5 hours. Disappoint.

Well, I suppose it means I'm basically ready for everything. Which is cool.

 3 days.

Something amusing

Hoping you guys are ready too!

[PS. JAMES BOND IS A TIME LORD. THINK ABOUT THE WOMEN AND THE NEW FACES]

I watched the whole video to the end. It's actually hilarious.

I... have nothing to say about that. It was interesting.

JAMES BOND IS A TIMELORD! OMG WHEN YOU SAID THAT I WAS FLOORED.

Although he doesn't have a TARDIS.

Also the dalek dresses were cool. :p

^Omg it's Average
Pre-Uni was weird, I went there in year 3/4 and basically class system is whatever your parents want you to be in (even when it's clear you can't survive there)

So I heard Rassilon is actually James Bond in disguise (or the other way around???)
