my june common tests were over only yesterday, unlike 771 other year 2s who ended their ordeal after thursday's maths paper. somehow HCL and CLA people are the only unfortunate people taking their last paper on friday. the parade square looked so empty with so few year 2s... haha. here's my analysis of how i did for my papers:

1. physics - the gone case paper, as i thought electricity is surely going to come out for the essay questions section but sadly gravitation and electric field/capacitance came out. i almost know nothing about gravitation, so in the end just did the capacitance section. luckily ideal gas was tested, as my physics teacher was the setter, so i studied his wonderfully prepared notes and his question was the most complete question i done for the whole paper! structured questions were difficult, so i left many parts blank. the data analysis question was so creative, got some sort of topo map and tsunami questions to answer, almost like a geog question on first look.

2. GP - another gone case paper, wrote the "teach less, learn more" question for essay, but as usual i was sloooow and wrote quite little with not very substantial points. i am praying hard for 20 marks. argh... compre paper was about privacy and such, this time i wrote a bit more for AP than usual, at the expense of the short questions. but vocab was quite ok for me. hope my GP grade won't get a E8 or it's tea with lim lai cheng.

3. chemistry - i thought not having a mcq section in the paper was a rumour but it came true! some people claimed it was announced during lectures but i just didn't hear it. so it was structured questions plus essay questions for the entire paper... left the biochem option question blank (10 marks!), but i was prepared to give up that anyway since i didn't study much on it. not a very well done paper in general.

4. maths - the paper that i believe was the saviour for many people. pure maths questions were laughably easy, only the statistics questions were a bit more challenging. in the end the normal approximation to binomial/poisson didn't even come out. aiming for an A, though i am counting how many marks are deducted now.

5. chinese A - a supposedly easy paper if you memorise well. i was planning to study overnight to cram whatever i can into my brain but i fell asleep halfway! i managed to stay completely awake to the morning before the physics and chem papers... guess i was too tired by the end of the week... in the end i couldn't write much... i think 40+ marks only... haiz, from a possible A drop to O or even F.

anyway, on a happier note, next tuesday will also be a school holiday for tjcians to celebrate the basketball win last term. good time for me to be refreshed properly before another school term.

i watched war of the worlds yesterday after the chinese paper with the lyes. the movie looked very real and kept me intriged from start till the end... definitely worth the 4-star recommendations from both straits times and zaobao.

to those who think that all hope is gone after JCT, don't fret. perhaps you can ask yourselves what has gone wrong, and how u can avoid that from happening again. or at least i am trying to do that. ha =P.

back to LOST...
