Chem- 15 %, prac, fairly confident (ish, but I have high standards for myself in chem, so I wanna do
good), but its all past knowledge assumed, I had hoped they'd at least specify a module. Hmph.
Bio- 15% another prac, another all knowledge. But its bio, so I'm all good. I like bio.

Eng - We have 2 exams for this
