, hey where are you up to in year 11? water?

 

[~dEjA vOuX~]

we started metals at the end of last term

 

[abdooooo!!!]

hehehe... your school is pretty slow

metals is cool, you get to know why aluminium is used to make coke cans and some other crap about how to extract copper... first you mine it, then you concentrate it, then you extract it, then alloy or purify it. it all makes sense .

year 11 chemistry starts to get hard when you get to water with the polar molecules, ions, moles...

is my school slow?? my old school is up to the same thing.

my friends who do accelerated chem say that yr 11 is ok, but year 12 stuff gets heaps hard

speed doesnt matter as long as you get it done and nailed up at the end. (i'm telling myself this as we only done 2 topics in the 2 terms far for the hSC ..... )

i believe year 11 = year 12 + more memorising those pain in the ass long responses.

how many terms are we suppose to have to finish hsc in? cause i haven't even done my half-yearlys yet. and only done one practical so far for year 12. its gonna be so cool, i'll be doing practical and having assessments almost every lesson for the rest of the year .

is it worth getting a chem tutor? my teacher is really crap

 

[abdooooo!!!]

don't know. never been fan of tutors myself. the price you pay for a tutor in a year can buy you all the text book for hsc chemistry. just read all the text books, you'll learn much more than with any tutor can teach you.

i tried the excel one, but it was really brief. heaps of people say the chem context book is good. maybe i'll get that...

well im doing 1st chem prac assessment tomorow and 1st theory assessment on friday. we have a term left to the trials( though i think we dun hav 2 finish the course by then but close to finish)

Excel is just a book of notes.... make your own notes so at least you can remember them better. Context/mcmillan/conquering chem are all ok in their own way as they cover different area in more details so cross referencing from a several sources is alot better than just using 1 text book. intertextuallity (im learning sumfin in english) is a bonus

GOOD LUCK in your chem prac and theory assessments

thanks...
