1) Choose one or two exams from 1999-2002.
2) Split the exam up into the 5 units: kinetics, dynamic equilibrium, solubility equilibrium, acid-base, and electrochemistry.
3) Study the units one at a time by reading Hedbden and class notes, preparing study notes, and doing the Provincial questions
for that unit.
4) When you have studied all five units separately, take a more recent exam 2003-2004, and try to do the exam under test
conditions. Do ALL the questions BEFORE you mark the answers!
5) Do corrections for the exam you just attempted. Be sure to figure out what confused you - was it your understanding
of the content, misreading the question, or a mathematical error.
6) Review areas of weakness that you found while doing the practice exam.
7) Do another exam from 2003-2004
8) Repeat the above process until your mark reaches AT LEAST the percentage that you have been getting for your unit tests!
If you run out of the newer exams, there are lots of older exams, but bear in mind that these exams have fewer multiple choice
questions!
