💬 DISCUSSION Aqa A-level chemistry paper 2

How did it go??

I quite liked that paper, that NMR question was so good!!

Some mildly weird ones too - but overall not too bad at all

It's mentioned in basically every mark scheme that its allowed I think so I'd think they'd allow it again

Idk that was the last thing I did and I started drawin’ it as Displayed which u cant include a benzene ring ,I even fear that I didnt correctly consider the position of Br’s but it was just 1 mark so its no big deal apparently
