We are sorry to inform you that will not post answer to the B chemistry paper ourselves his year.
 

We do however want to give all chemistry candidates the opportunity to discuss the papers ands their answers here.

We look forward to your comments!

Comments are welcome in any official EPO language, not just English. So, comments in German and French are also very welcome!

Please do not post your comments anonymously - it is allowed, but it makes responding more difficult and rather clumsy ("Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms Anonymous of 03-03-2015 03:03"), whereas using your real name or a pseudonym is more personal, more interesting and makes a more attractive conversation. You do not need to log in or make an account - it is OK to just put your (nick) name at the end of your post.

Please post your comments as to first impressions, general remarks as well as any details about the paper and your answer. Feel also free to discuss your answers.
 

Thanks!
