DAY 3
omg. the epic battle that is called bio paper 2 - core paper just ended this afternoon. out of the battlefield came shell-shocked soldiers (i.e. stunned students), outraged at how poorly equipped they were and how the enemy (i.e. the paper) could be so cruel to us.
the first evil signs appeared even before the soldiers marched into the battlefield. as zero hour approached, the sky darkened, eventually turning into torrential rain, forcing all our troops into a column, seeking shelter from the rain, as we waited for the doors to open. perhaps we should have sensed then, as we have realised now, that a great massacre was about to begin, starting by arranging us into neat columns for slaughter.
they lured us in.
the first question was deceptively simple, asking for really obvious things that didn't require much of anything. smiling, our troops holding elite pistols gunned down these things with ease.
they shocked us.
the second question can be described as an air strike. from the middle of nowhere, a fleet of bombers came in and shelled the hell out of us (i.e. application question which we've never heard of any of the terms in it). armed only with pistols, we valiantly but futilely tried to fight back, only to be shocked by the power of the bombshells. (not sure if this is the correct question, as in whether the weird application question was question 2, but let's just assume it is for convenience)
they destroyed us.
the next few questions deployed a combination of the tactics of confusion and annihilation. while most of the time not even knowing where our enemies are (i.e. don't know what the questions are asking for???) we got hit left right and centre. having been forced into a tiny square and set up our peripheral defences, our little comfort zone is only to be destroyed by rolling tanks. (i.e. yet more weird questions which gave very little information and required a lot of deductions)
they forced us onto a road of no-return.
the final essay question was supposed to be a 2-choose-1. but for most of us, it was hardly any choice at all. one of the routes looked omnious, but the other is so blatantly ridden with road-side bombs, landmines, atomic wastes, bio-hazardous materials (i.e. ultra difficult not-taught-in-rj and difficult to explain and phrase questions) that we didn't have to waste time evaluating. in fact, i heard that from my entire class, only gerald toh was brave enough to choose that other question, though we may never know the outcome. fortunately, by then we are already hardened ruthless killers and as we tread the omnious path, we took what we could and just went on.
the battle is not over.
while we (i.e. i'm making a generalisation that's not actually qualified. so pls forgive me, those who aced this paper) may have lost the strategic stronghold of bio paper 2 - core paper, there is still a glimmer of hope. our fortunes may yet be reversed. all shall be revealed on the 17th of Nov, bio paper 3 - the last stand.
may our troops rise above this bionic monster.
