^I'll back this point up!
Definitely learn and master your content first, and then slowly start to answer some practice questions. I found that answering practice questions were more helpful once I had sufficient knowledge about the topic, and then I could use this exercise as a way to refine...
Just reading this thread leaves me baffled lol... never in my 13 years of schooling have I ever experienced what it's like to pull an all-nighter. I know many people who did that before an assignment at my school, and they would rock up the next day emanating bad energy and a 'just wing it'...
Hi, I have essays and notes for Christianity and Islam! If you are interested, I'm selling this package for a cheap price, just send me a PM. I received a 96/100 in SOR and a 99+ ATAR.
I drew my timetable in my diary/bullet journal for 2020 which I will basically carry around all the time. This way I can access my classes w/o having to open my phone or use wifi/data. In other cases, if you prefer digital timetables, you can download apps where you can record and keep your...
Nothing bad comes out of getting ahead in any of your classes. In fact, it might give you extra time during class to discuss questions personally with your teacher or to ask for clarification about a topic.
Hey!
There are many websites that attempt to break down the complexities of HSC subject scalings, however, I found Eddie Woo's explanation to be the most understandable. Watch the 3 part series here.
Hi Hithcock!
Thank you for your insight :) I've happily decided on Physiotherapy at USYD due to similar reasons you've listed above. In fact, I had initially chosen physio as my immediate backup and so Vision Sci was literally a decision I made on impulse. I chose it because I was desperate to...
Dear OP:
Motivation can become your worst enemy during your HSC year. But you must learn to befriend it and use it to your advantage. Start slow and make To-do lists instead of a rigid timetable. It's more likely you'll stick to completing these tasks rather than following a pre-made schedule...
Hey, check out the 2019 version for SUCCESS ONE BIO. It's a book worth investing in since they remove any irrelevant past paper questions and sort them based on the new modules. They also include loads of new questions which complement the new syllabus quite well.
Hi, I'll just give you some pointers to give you an idea of what to write for each Q :)
1. Explain why urban areas, generally not appropriate to set up synthesis plants for chemicals.
You could potentially argue this, and say that there are pros and cons with establishing a synthesis plant in...
Hey, I used Success One for Bio and Chem (NEW SYLLABUS) and I found Bio to be EXTREMELY useful for Trial Exams. The new version also negates irrelevant past paper questions that no longer relate to the new syllabus. :)
Hey!
Booklists should be released when it gets closer to the start of semester. Some degrees might have already released their booklists on their faculty websites. Otherwise, you could check here --> https://www.bookshop.unsw.edu.au/textlist.html
In terms of buying textbooks, I think it...
Hi everyone :)
So I am currently stuck between choosing USYD Physio and UNSW Optom as a program to commence undergraduate study in 2020. My long-term goal is to ultimately pursue medicine. I didn't get any interview offers this year so I'm re-taking the UCAT this coming July.
I've been stuck...
Sure thing :)
How I found each subject: (probably not of any help whatsoever but sharing my personal experience for free! :inlove:)
Chem - 5/10 Quite a huge jump from Year 7-10 Science, so there were times where I hated it (BUT I loved it in Year 12! Content gets much better and less dry!)
Bio...
Pharmacy has a LOT of chemistry in it. But don't worry, if you're really passionate about a career in health sciences and in particular pharm, then it shouldn't be too hard to come to terms with Chemistry and learn to not only understand concepts faster/better but also enjoy studying it. You...
