I feel like my school made the worst trial paper ever... why is the actual hsc not even that bad...
For sciences I noticed the questions are harder in trial papers but the hsc blends modules a lot more (which can make for some quite clever questions) and also words questions weirdly as well (which makes it really hard to actually understand what they're asking for sometimes)

Hi guys, for mod 7 nomenclature, our school uses the old method like 2-butene instead of but-2-ene, would we lose mark for that? Thanks

my teacher was very specific on using the correct nomenclature (but-2-ene) so maybe it depends on the school but if the hsc accepts both u should be fine

anyone have advice on how to not make a million dumb mistakes? in the exam i might look over my work several times and only realise after.
im talking like plugging the wrong number into the calculator, accidentally moving the decimal place or forgetting to refer to collision theory
