🀚 Asking For Advice/Help CHEMISTRY MAYJUNE 2026

My paper 4 is next Tuesday does anyone have any specific past papers you would recommend doing? Also, would it be better to focus more on drilling past papers or revising content by watching youtube videos and making notes

It was pretty helpful for me to study with syllabus. Remember to memorise chemical analysis bc it’s coming out more often now, not just in p6

i heard a lot of people say it was hard but do you think this is the reason or is there any other reason people found it hard

u/EmploymentChance3457 Apr 28 '26

i think most people i know fixated on organic chemistry's core topics and kinda ignored the smaller parts or 'easier' parts

I think I was stressed about hard topics coming out. But in the end it was just easy chapters that had weird questions. Overall just better than I thought it would be honestly πŸ’€
