Prelims Day 10: Physics Paper 1

After a 2-day break, it’s time for the second last Prelim paper. :)

It’s a MCQ paper. 40 questions to be done in 1h 15min. I attempted all the JCs’ 09 Prelim papers, and got the hang of it, haha. Some papers were tougher, while some were easier, but I spent an average of 35 to 40 minutes for each paper, which is a nice 50% of the time provided. xD

RI’s 09 paper was rather manageable too and I also spent only around 40 minutes. I expected the real thing to be as easy, but it wasn’t. :\ Quite a number of the questions were tricky, and quite a few involved very tedious calculations and manipulation of mathematical equations. It was really a test of mathematical skills for such questions. I managed to survive through them, but I spent 50 minutes to finish the 40 questions, 10+ minutes more than my average timing. The extra 10+ minutes just show how exceedingly challenging the paper was.

I just hope for the best. :)

After the paper, I went to the gym with my friend. LOL, it seemed as if Prelims are over for me… but well, Prelims are over for my friend. I am left with, well, a Chem MCQ paper, and I guess I don’t have to study very hard for it? Anyway, it was a good gym session. I ran 1.6km, did some decent upper body exercises which had recently become rather flabby, hahaha. And oh, I’ve been eating a lot and not been exercising, so I was really scared I’m already 70kg! But hah, to my surprise, the machine showed 65.2kg, which was in fact lighter than my weight (66-67kg) before Prelims! Hmmm, Prelims made me lost weight. Must be because of all the hardcore mugging. :\

I continued to slack for a very long while with my friend, before I went home for a nap. Woke up at 6pm, and started spamming Chem MCQ papers from the 09 Prelims set. I did 5 in total before I retired for the night. :) How productive, haha.
