In the meeting we were told that many students were lost while answering the Chemistry 2 paper in the exams hall last week.
The reason given was the questions in the paper were difficult and out of normal Q and A.
In fact I have seen the paper. The questions are not difficult. I dare say that it's easy. The standard has lowered than what I had expected.
I got no worry that my students will score good grades because the passing mark will be lowered by someone who hold power.
The paper needs thinking skills ,understanding and applications of knowledge.
The scenario in the schools and tuitions is to impart memorisation of knowlegde without emphasis on skills.
We are one of the unlucky students trained by them.
We don't think out of box.
So change our attitudes in study in order to get good grades in exams.
