Conquering or Jacaranda r good =)

I agree, i would also like to recommend Chemistry Contexts 2

 

[RG11]

imo chemistry contexts 2 does not go into enough depth

 

[aantony]

there are books called surfing chemistry, you can use them for prelim and hsc
also the excel books and also dot point are good too

IMO I disagree.
We use this at school and it seems fine to me so far; however, I also use Jacaranda to thoroughly go through things I don't understand.
For example, I didn't understand Polyatomic Ions via Contexts so I looked at Jacaranda to understand them.

My teacher gave us contexts 1, KISS pdfs and we do conquering chemistry worksheet for homework. Should I also get Jacaranda? Also, what do you think of KISS in general?

 

[madharris]

I used conquering chem and Chemistry in Context at school

In my opinion:
Conquering chemistry is good, even though the formatting of the textbook is weird

 

[Leffife]

Chemistry 2nd Edition by Julia Burdge is a great book if you want to go in-depth with certain topics.

KISS Notes - Chemistry

This is exactly like my school lol. I additionally have Jacaranda as IMO it is good to refer to as a second source

I second this statement.

KISS Notes - Chemistry

KISS notes are horrible for any subject
They are way too vague

 

[girlworld_club]

conquering chemistry preliminary is the best, jacaranda for HSC.

 

[saysesame]

Definitely Conquering Chemistry , and I've heard good things about Surfing Chemistry.

They are way too vague

Oh man. My physics teacher uses those :/

Jacaranda for a deep conceptual understanding (that others may not offer). Then just buy state ranking notes and revise while simultaneously doing past paper questions + observing their marking guidelines keenly.

 

[Come at me]

Yes
