Chemistry Paper (Exam 5\/5)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Last Friday I had my chem exam. It went much better than expected, although as a friend once said in conversation – “In physics, they test to see what you know, in chemistry, it’s to see what you don’t know”. Probably made a lot of mistakes. But here’s the best bit about it… It doesn’t matter anymore. Or at least, it does matter, but there’s nothing I can do about it.<\/p>\n
