LOL, your teacher must be really, really, really bad. :p

It's not long enough. I ran out of time during my trials and wrote only one and a half pages. It was probably as long as yours, and my teacher told me that to get in the top range, I'd have to write twice as much. A few small things: Without is one word. Try to avoid beginning a...

Calm down. He's saying he used Graphmatica to check your answer. In my case, Winplot says right. :)

Looks like graph right.

For Paper 1, you'd usually have another two additional texts. If it says "at least one" other text of your own choosing, then it wouldn't be wrong to do only one, as long as you it's done with sufficient depth.

Oh please, as if you should be panicking! :p My teacher gave us a few comprehensions and reading/responding tasks, although it's the listening that I fear the most. I have some German stories on CD, so maybe I'll have a listen to them. And finally, keep posting in "Spiel"? :D

Here's a graph, I hope it helps. The curves never approach 0. They come closer and closer but they never touch the x or y axis. Therefore the asymptote is 0. :)

Do you mean the purification process? I don't find it that hard to remember. :p If you mean the Winkler Method, well, nobody remembers that! We just need to know of it, and what it does.

*Mutters* Why not just get rid of English altogether...

Correct! Well done. You're very welcome.

That's exactly what I thought. But they just wouldn't phrase it like that. That's just weird.

Haha, yeah, I have no life. :p (Come sig this too, Arvin?) Hmm, well then. A salt is an ionic compound, which means it must have a metal in it. Metallic compounds do not usually form acidic solutions, so I really have no idea. I'm sorry. :( Yes, citric acid is triprotic. It has an OH...

1. Explain the use of acids as food additives. Acids are used as food additives for two reasons: 1. To provide a sour taste 2. To act as a preservative, as the growth of microorganisms is not favoured by an acidic environment. Common additives include acetic acid in vinegar, and citric...

No, you have to try your best for English because it will count towards your UAI. If you do really terribly in it, it would only be slightly better than having under 10 units, and that will get you nowhere near 90.

Also because people who didn't do so well are ashamed to post up their marks. I had second thoughts about posting my English rank.

OMG, dude, do you realise that's exactly what I did before, except for the bit in bold? :eek: I feel like an ass.

This is preliminary, so I assume you're talking about the allotropes of carbon. Yes, they're both classified as covalent compounds, which by definition are compounds which have bonds formed by atoms sharing electrons. Covalent molecular means, in the case of graphite, that each carbon atom...

Speaking of English rankings, is 55/167 in a selective school going to prevent me from 99.95?

That sounds more like projectiles. :p Post up the question.

No, no no no. Maybe 3 or 4?
