I see… Because you’re my point of reference for “person most likely to get a 5,” so if YOU thought it was hard, it definitely wasn’t just me. Ehh. I thought the MC was fine for the most part, but from what I’ve heard, I made some mistakes. I’m a terrible guesser omg. FRQ’s were hard, though. The net ionics were amazing, thank god! I was kind of nervous about that but they were all doable. The other stuff though? Nooo sir… The calorimeter one was pretty bad, but they were all pretty bad. For some reason, time went by WAY faster than it ever did during practice tests, which made me leave some stuff blank, ugh. I really wish I’d written something down for every part. That’s my biggest regret. The thing about free response that most annoyed me, though, is that it was all the stuff I was looking for/wanted (ksp, kinetics, electrochem, thermo) but in some weird format that wasn’t typical and that threw me off. It was HARD!!! And what’s even more weird is that the stuff I DIDN’T want (IMF) was the stuff I got for sure. The rest I may have BS-ed a little (the explanations/using some random numbers). But the IMF on the last question? I actually got that down. And IMF is the stuff I NEVER got on the practice tests!! This test was all backwards. I just want a 4 at this point.
