Chemistry test is difficult and long, candidates are worried

(Baonghean.vn) - After 90 minutes of taking the test, this afternoon, more than 13,000 candidates in Nghe An completed the Chemistry subject (elective subject) of the National High School Exam.

Because it was a multiple-choice test with a short time limit, at nearly 4 p.m., the exam site at Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted (Vinh City) was still closed and no candidate had left the exam room. Parents were anxiously waiting. About 15 minutes after the bell rang, the candidates began to pour out with many different moods.

Candidates exchange after the exam.

Student Ho Thi Hoang Yen (Thanh Chuong 3 High School) said: Although this year's exam is completely within the textbook program, it is not easy. About 60% of the questions are for graduating students, 40% are for classification. Of the 50 questions, there are 6 most difficult questions about organic chemistry. The exercise questions require a lot of calculation. If not careful, the theoretical questions can easily lead to mistakes and confusion.

Sharing the same opinion, candidate Tran Thi Tra (Nghi Loc 2 High School) also shared: Although I took the A block exam and finished all the questions, I was only sure of 60% of the questions. Everyone in the exam room was busy doing the test until the end of the exam time.

However, the test also has practical application questions, for example the question about finding out the toxic substances in ants to cure swelling...

At the Hermann Gmeiner exam site, many candidates from the local exam cluster were worried, saying: The test was difficult and long, we were afraid we wouldn't get a "fail" score.

Talking about this year's exam, teacher Phung Van Tung - Chemistry teacher, Thanh Chuong 1 High School said: The first 30 questions of the Chemistry exam are basic level questions, not much different from previous years. Besides, the exam is quite interesting because there are questions related to practical applications such as using polymer materials in industry, water pollution...

As for the classification questions, the test was more difficult than last year's test. In particular, it focused on knowledge related to 12th grade organic chemistry, which requires precise calculation and a lot of thinking.

Commenting on the scores, teacher Phung Van Tung hopes: With this test, if students are good or excellent, they can do well and even get 10 points. For average students, if they grasp the basic knowledge in the textbook, they will get 5-6 points.

At the end of the exam, many candidates remained at the exam sites to discuss their answers.

So, up to this point, students taking the A block exam have completed their exams. Tomorrow, candidates will continue with the two exams History and Biology.

According to today's statistics, in the whole Nghe An province, 274 candidates were absent from the exam and one candidate was suspended for bringing a phone into the exam room.
