Lol. Just got back from session 3 & 4 of the 2U lecture. Overall it was pretty good, Kevin Gosbell went through the 2U course and did lots of questions. Hence he provided us with step-by-step guide to answering some of the questions.

The overhead projector kept on turning off lol.

the maths lectures were OK... nothing brilliant. And i don't want to be a fuss pot or w/e but seriously... TSFX shouldve double checked the formulas published by kevin gosbell. I don't blame him for accidently typing the wrong formulas but TSFX should really double check what gets sent to printing, especially cos they pride themselves in the booklets they distribute.

I'm going to the economics and business studies ones next, hope there is more discussion and participation in those lectures.

Chem was pretty bad.

The production of lecturer was reallllyyy good, she helped a lot of with HSC exam styles and answers

But the lecturer for Acidic was pretty crap, he kept making mistakes and seemed like he didn't know what he was doing.

Lucky i didnt sign up for industrial...

industrial chem was AWESOME~ :D
but the answer sheet's printing quality is pretty bad - -'''
I agree, haha.
Can't read the bloody thing. =.=

I already signed up for Chem, and I suppose it was okay. The first lecturer practically skipped the last 10-15 pages or so.

Impulsively, I've also signed up for Physics, English and Modern.
Let's see how they go. :)


Oh yeah, and the camera-projector kept turning off randomly, ghost maybe? LOL.

The acidic lecturer was pretty funny though.

I've noticed from both production and shipwrecks lectures that Mrs Stockbridge focuses more on exam technique and how to answer questions, while JP (acidic+monitoring) spends more time on the specific content on chemistry and actually answering the questions.

Btw, what do you guys think of the notes they gave us for chem?

Note are pretty good, but i dont see how they are TRIAL prep notes.

Funny how that tool that kept shouting answers at the front Doesn't answer anything that requires thinking.

He did pretty good reminding me about all the concepts and such, just that it sucks how we spent so much time on some calculation questions and we basically skipped most of them.

Agreed, notes are alright but if I have to put that much effort into Chemistry alone, I don't know how on Earth I'm going to finish studying for everything else. :/

Haha, the people that just answered like pros made me feel so stupid. /sighs.
