Chemistry - conquering chemistry

Maths - cambridge 2 unit year 11 and 12 and cambridge 3 unit year 11.

cambridge 3 unit has all the two unit topics and has harder questions so definitely get that one if you want good marks.

dont get the cambridge 3 unit books if you dont do 3unit

or if you do get both the 3unit books ( yr11 and yr12) as im fairly sure the 3unit books have all the 2unit topics as well

Fitzpatrick is the 2U bible. That alone should suffice for 2U. Cambridge IMO has shit examples but some good questions.

english standard - get those excel guides the texts that you're doing

2U maths - get fitzpatrick and the HSC practice questions by topic since they're very useful

chem - as stated above, conquering chem

idk about business and senior science though

would you guys recommend excel chemistry?

yes. i wouldnt recommend u rely on it as a study guide, but, as a summarised textbook.

Jacaranda Chemistry by Thickett is very good for Chem.
Excel Mathematics should suffice for Mathematics.

You obviously want this child to fail.
but seriously, whatever you do don't get maths in focus

Chem - Jacaranda
2U - Fitzpatrick (yellow book)

Is Excel Mathematics written by S.K. Patel?

I dunno, I'd never get it.
I got the extension 2 one, but i borrowed that from school and i wont use it as i use terry lee and a really old one, that's like cambridge or some shit.

Lol. For 4U, I use Cambridge and Terry Lee. I've neglected Fitzpatrick. ):

Yeah, I borrowed fitzpatrick from school and i havent even flipped a page

I've read complex no.s and conics in fitzpatrick. The explanations are good, not sure about the questions.
Oh and yea, I find terry lee an extremely bad book to learn from. It's good for the questions, that's it

so true about that
I can barely understand the explanations in Terry Lee as they jump and skip heaps of steps

as for fitzpatrick 4U, you could possibly compare it to the 'maths in focus' of 4U as it has the easiest questions, esp graphs and complex numbers :L
