Short writeup:
The 2020 Woodgrove Secondary School Pure Chemistry Paper 1 & 2 is tailored for students preparing early for their preliminary exams. Set in 2020, this paper notably excludes Organic Chemistry, focusing primarily on Acid-Base and Salt.
This paper emphasizes the importance of Acid-Base and Salt, with many questions from other topics crafted as applications towards these concepts. It clearly demonstrates the relevance and significance of Acid-Base and Salt in Chemistry.
Few questions in this paper are considered insightful, making it unlikely to be difficult for most students. However, due to its strong focus on Acid-Base and Salt, which is a major component of the O level Pure Chemistry syllabus, this paper will be useful for most students.
Overall, it is a decent paper to kickstart your revision for your prelim exams in late August. Students should not struggle to complete this paper with a respectable score.
