Short writeup:


The ACS (Barker Road) Pure Chemistry Paper 2 stands out as one of the most creatively set papers I've encountered. It offers a fair challenge to students, with questions structured in a unique and engaging manner. Despite this creative approach, the answers expected from students remain consistent with standard norms.


Key highlights of this paper include its innovative questions, which I have included in my own prelim vault for practice. These questions effectively test a student's understanding at both basic and intricate levels. Although there are a few questions I disagree with, overall, it is an excellent paper for practice.


For students aiming to gauge their performance on an above-average O-level paper, this exam will challenge you adequately. It provides valuable insights into Pure Chemistry concepts that might be overlooked through conventional questioning. With the guidance of a competent mentor or teacher to explain and dissect the questions, this paper can be immensely beneficial.
