People have said that the Conquering Chemistry book is very good. Stores around my area don't sell it! :(

I will have to ask my teachers if they have it or if not, on here :D lol

My second preference after Physics would have to be Chemistry.

Physics > Chemistry > Earth & Environmental > Biology > Senior Science

Damn you. We hardly ever get to do that!! ARGH! Although I can easily con the teacher into doing some 'fun' :p, especially if our Nuclear Physics teacher comes back to do some Chemistry work! Gee, he's a ball.

It's really close between Chemistry, Physics and Biology because they are the most popular courses taken by the nerdy kids, like everyone on here! Senior Science is way too brief.

Biology was my favorite over Chemistry, although it is a subjective opinion. Biology has some great concepts within the course. Chemistry is also very interesting and gives a good scaling advantage :)

physics is the best science for sure.
if you love mathematics you'll love physics it involves extremely interesting ideas and applications, nice mathematics is also involved. My phys teacher says physics made maths lol.
who doesnt want to know about space travel and why time and distance can change for different speeds...
in year 11 chem started good, stayed good till bout 3rd term, then it started decreasing and still is. its starting to level out though lol.
phys started alright but as about half way through yr 11 it got more interesting.

Toss-up between chem and physics, I voted physics because physics > astrophysics > Star Trek... those being arrows, not greater than signs!

Chem is easier (thus better marks, making me like it) and physics is more interesting
