Finally, SPM 2011 Tips for SPM Chemistry 2011 is out. The ramalan-ramalan or predictions published will finally answer all queries from Berry Readers regarding our annual Berry Examination Tips. As with previous years, the Berry Berry Teacher strongly encourages all Berry Readers to first study properly (in full – the entire syllabus) for SPM Chemistry before even looking at the following SPM examination tips. So for those who have not revised the entire Chemistry Form 4 and Form 5 chapters in full, it is highly encouraged that you DO NOT view this page until you have done so. The following tips are not replacements for proper studying.
As for the notations, the * and ** symbols which denotes berry important topics from past year questions (2003-10) and berry hot topics for SPM 2011 which you might not want to miss. So do check out the tips for SPM 2011 Chemistry. Do also give special attention to electrochemistry, oxidation and reduction and thermochemistry, while not neglecting  periodic table of elements, manufactured substances in industry and chemicals for consumers. (Most of the notes are available under the Berry Notes section, so make sure you read and understand the chapters. Bookmark them too and revise often if you want to do well in your SPM examinations.)
