So next year im in year 11 and i am very worried that i will get shit teachers for physics and chem,

is it possible to be able to do really well in them through self study?

is there anyone who has gone through this experience?
thx

Well I had a good teacher in year 11 however he left the school and we got a bad teacher for year 12.
I got a low band 6 for chem which I am extremely happy about!

Not tested directly, but the content learnt in year 12 will assume prerequisite knowledge from year 11.

I had a really bad teacher in physics and self taught it myself. It is certainly do-able, just need hard work and dedication. I think i ended up with an 87-88 so its possible.

Sorry man i kinda know how it feels. Your life depending on someone with minimal experience. all you can do is self study.
Here is a tip of the textbooks you can self study from:
Physics: either Jacaranda Physics ( best) or In2 Phyics
Chemistry: Either Conquering Chemistry (best) or CHemistry context

Good luck
