    Should I Handwrite or Type My Notes for HSC Chemistry/Physics?

    I believe there are many reasons to write notes even if reviewing Powerpoint slides seems to be enough right now. Writing your own notes in your own words will help you remember where content belongs. Using your teachers' powerpoints may be sufficient in the beginning but will become very...

    Things that helped me improve in chemistry/physics (99.95 ATAR, no tutoring)

    This is what worked for me: Scientific skills Keep detailed notes on your practicals throughout the term. It's beneficial to get your questions answered during the practicals themselves, as it might be harder to ask them later. In my notes, I actually had a separate section for practicals from...

    Objectively, both subjects are more complex in Year 12 compared to in Year 11. However, I think the increased complexity makes both subjects much more interesting in Year 12. What's more important - Year 12 curriculum is much more relevant and applicable to university chemistry and physics (if...

    In my opinion and based on my personal experience helping students, more students perform better in chemistry. However, there are students who perform better in physics than in chemistry. I think many students find physics 'difficult' because the nature of the content isn't what they expect it...

    There is no specific textbook I would recommend. My personal take on the use of textbooks for HSC Chemistry and Physics is that they are a good starting point but students shouldn't rely on them excessively as they do not provide the details necessary to master the subject. I always suggest...
