biology and chemistry experiments

Reon

wondering im repeating the big LC just wondering if its necessary for me to do them again or to just learn them off? yes i have done them but cant remember but i got notes off a friend who got an A1 in both subjects

I'd say if you have them done already from last year and a teacher has signed you off (to say you have completed the experiments), you wouldn't have to do them again. Doesn't make sense if you have to repeat them all again ! Would clarify with your previous chem/biology teacher though to be sure.

you don't have to do them again i think but it mightn't be any harm doing them again with the class as you might learn something you didn't get last year or something might click you wouldnt know

hey, i am in same situation...need to repeat biology, but don't have time for experiments...im in my final year at uni... but iv looked up the SEC and they have forms for filling out by the school that your supposed to be doin the experiments with...how do we get out of that? i done my biology in 2005, would i not be exempt from having to do experiments again? please help,,

i think you would be as I guess you are registered as an external student teaching biology yourself. It would be pretty OTT for them to think you'd actually have the resources yourself to repeat the experiments, however I'd ask maybe a teacher just in case

I was informed yesterday by an ex examiner that based on a techinality from when the new biology course was made you don't have to do any experiments for LC bio, just learn them. I don't know about chemistry though.

hey got confirmation from SEC that if you done experiments before, as in the Biology Leaving cert, you do not need to do them again. But to be on safe side, i'm getting a letter from my old school to say that I completed my biology course and I done the experiments already.
