Hey Broly, I did the exact same thing as you lol, my one unit subject was compuslory Studies of Religion Bleehh

It really isnt that difficult to do 3 sciences, just continue the work throughout the years and you should be fine. In Yr 12 I picked up 4 unit maths, and decided to Drop Biology as the extra units were no longer needed and it was one of my weaker subjects, and boy oh boy dropping bio was definately the best thing I could have done lol, if only i didnt suck at English

In short, just make sure you pay attention in class, and as other people have said previously, its not just about knowing the dot points, if you understand some of the more difficult concepts you should be able to answer any question successfully which is what matters in the end I guess

Good Luck, and Stick with it

For Physics, the Jacaranda Textbook for sure. Also, Excel isn't bad just for exam preparation.

Physics Contexts has too much background info and context (as the title suggests :)), isn't written particularly well and is confusing if you ever actually bother reading it.

Well I originally started off with the exact subjects, but decided to change from bio to modern history. Modern history just seems more fun than biology.

Also, try to get a locker, PrettyVacant. Get your parents to write your Vice/Principal to give you a locker, or get a junior to share her locker with you:)

I have a locker, I just need to take the book home to use it to complete maths exercises and whatnot.

Year 12 3 unit book is a little lighter. THe 4 unit book is mini, therefore sexy. Much like small penii are sexy.
Alright, I'm here 'cause I can't sleep. :)

And yes, I have the year 12 one too! But we're doing year 11 at the moment, we'll jump to the year 12 topics later :)

That doesn't make sense though, we're doing Ext. 1, shouldn't we do Ext 1 maths?

Yes, but you cover all Ext 1 maths in Year 12. Commence feeling ripped-off...

What about those people who do Ext 2?? They won't know the 3 unit content!

They'll have to storm through it rather quickly, most people in the state doing Maths Ext 2 are short of time.

Also: You're stalking me =( But I'm the cool type of nerd.
Admit you like my attention...
