Mod Chem

Dear Blog,

I'm so upset about today. (well, technically, it's yesterday). I totally flunked my modern chemistry test. It was such a BUMMER. Although people say getting <90 for the test isn't the end of the world, getting good grades is part of MY world. It is a source of gratification for me. Actually I really only have myself to blame as I did not even bother to review the past year questions. Most of the questions were derivatives of the past... I, with my snobbish self-confidence, thought that my STPM A would suffice to account for everything in modern chemistry. Of course, if I had not left everything to dust for 8 months that would probably still be true, but unfortunately that's not the case. I still managed to finish major parts of the paper, though my logical sense was gone and I got wrong for a question I could have got right. The main worry is that A is >90... and that's very very bad because we only have 4 exams. I really hope I can get 100 for the other exams - that's the least I could do to prove that STPM standard is as good as any other A-levels.
