1.2.1 Cp dimers: Good to see you’re aware of the limitations of and MM approach. However, you cannot compare the energies of the endo dimer to its hydrogenation product as they are not isomers.

1.2.2 NAD: Some slightly convoluted explanations but your answers are correct.

1.2.3 Taxol: Your structure for 10 is wrong so your energies are off.

1.3.1 Carbene: Looks fine.

Mini-project: Good to see you’re not taking the literature as gospel. Are there any other techniques you could use to distinguish between these isomers?

Overall: Not all sentences have to be several lines long. Shorter sentences can be used to emphasise your point. And commas cannot replace full stops! Try investigating the semicolon. The actual chemistry involved was fine though, good project.
