photo credit: ducdigital (creative commons) it is the time of the year again. gce a-level examination has started in singapore for academic year 2018 with the science practicals. students in singapore who are taking the a-level h2 chemistry syllabus (code: 9729) will be taking their practical exam (paper 4) this recapped with my students on the key points to take note of for their upcoming chemistry practical examination. i also realised that a lot of their friends intend to start preparing for their practical exam only on the eve of the exam i.e. 24th october 2018. today, i would like to share with you readers on some of the key points you should also take note of. first of all, we must know that paper 4 practical is worth a total of 55 marks and this constitute 20% weightage of your overall h2 chemistry grade. the time allocated to finish your practical paper is 2 hours and 30 minutes. this practical paper consists of a variable number of compulsory practical questions. students must attempt all the questions and one, or more, of the questions will incorporate as*essment of planning (p) and require candidates to apply and integrate theoretical knowledge and understanding from different sections of the h2 chemistry syllabus. planning used to be inside paper 2 but have been shifted to paper 4 practical since the start of the new syllabus (code: 9729) in 2017. so this is the 2nd year we have planning in. paper 4 practical. note that the as*essment of planning will have a weighting of 5% and the rest will have a weighting of 95%. one very interesting point to note about planning questions is that all these (in the older syllabus), it is just tested as a written. students that the planning question this year in h2 biology practical requires them to not only write out the practical theory but also to. prepared at least so that you wont get a shock if it really happens. let’s condition ourselves mentally and emotionally first, as part of do also note that the as*essment may include questions on data-an*lysis which do not require practical equipment and apparatus
