lowk might switch to cog or like ace but ace gives off matrix vibes idk.
for chem i just started at ace (trial lesson) and i found it SO much better than zhangs - the questions are genuinely exam style and not niche iykwim and they are great practise. tbf to zhangs i was online and online classes are always bad

Do you 25ers think that chem and physics tutoring is really required for yr 11/12?
i think its not necessary but it helps a lot if you pick the right one for you and they can provide you with extra practice or explaining concepts in the case that your school doesn't.

yes. if ur artificially academically inclined (i.e. not naturally smart u just can outwork ppl who r) (e.g. myself) then tutorign is kinda necessary.
agree with this too, i am not naturally smart in that sense but im relatively successful academically - what works for me and i lot of people like me especially for stem subjects is dividing your effort into 20% understanding the concept deeply through lectures, 80% grinding practice questions. you may not 100% need tutoring but if you are like me you need some sort of resources in some sense whether it be textbooks, holiday courses, extra time with teachers, more homework but for me tuition does all of that so it helps for me
