Past Exam Papers; Chemistry 3The best way to revise for an exam is to look at past papers and see what sort of questions are being asked, how you are meant to answer them etc. We put the 2003 June exams online and have provided links to sample answers.
Try to do the questions before you follow the link to the answer. There just 'aint no point in looking at the answer if you haven't had a proper go at the question! June 2003 Paper1
