It's alright I can borrow from school library...they have a massive collection of textbooks. Or I can borrow from local library. I just want to know what books are the best for each subject?

For Physics, I used Physics in Focus as my main textbook, and also had a copy of the Excel Physics book. I'd recommend getting PIF for your hsc year, but it's not necessary if you're already going to be using another decent textbook like Jacaranda.

I defs recommend surfing science....
LOL JK.
I didn't even use that crap and the teachers were trying to force us to do the exercises.

Nah I reckon what u have is good. We used heinemman bio at my school - it was pretty good but I always ended up using my Excel bio and chem summary books for my notes and self teaching. Only going to the text I got from school to add extra detail or find further explanation for a concept.
2U/3U kids at my school used maths in focus. I remember friends always complaining about how in MIF, the examples never helped them with the actual exercise so idk if I should recommend that lol.
