yay! custom!!!
A lot of the HSC chem course was stuff that probably wont apply to Uni Chem, like learning about pollution and stuff. If you were going to teach yourself, you wouldnt need to know all that stuff so HSC textbooks wouldnt be all that help full, because they are made to fit the HSC syllabus.
Like someone said before, go for the american textbooks because in america, the chem courses are all about chemistry, not all the other crap we had to learn, and so I reckon they'd help you more at Uni.

I think Bridging courses are essential for new students who have not the assumed knowledge beacuse you risk being left behind or worse even failing...for example me....this yr i will hopefully do B Commerce@ Usyd but have not done any maths in year 12...a 2u Mathematics Bridging course is crucial for me to undertake the first year as the core units like econmetrics and information sysdtems requires Mathematics...although it is expensive considering it comes on top of textbooks, the compulsory Uni fee, transport etc....$270
is alot for someone like me but i reckon it's all worth it!!!
You'll be ably to seek help n e wayz through the learning centres and stuff!!

does anyone know if the bridging courses are held as lectures?
Like, what is the chance that I will actually understand the complex concepts of physics if they go at a fast pace with a serious lack of question-asking along the way? If it was held in a nurturing classroom-type environment, i guess it'd be different, although u probably wouldn't get as much done...

I remember the Chemistry BC to start at 9:30am to about 4:30pm with a lunch break at 1am (I think).
They teach you in a lecture room in classroom style so if you have any questions - raise your hand. With the BC fee, you get booklets to work from e.g. A theory book and a Work book/tutorial book. After each chapter you go through the tute questions and they come around and show you how to answer any questions...

Hi!
I did the UTS Chemistry Bridging Course and did find it a little helpful
I thought the BC was a bit overpriced - almost $200 (I can't remember sorry
