Can I ask how much of the course everyone has covered in Chemistry? We've only got 30% of our textbook done (up to properties of gases) and our teacher told us that we'll have to have extra classes during lunch/after school next year to cover everything - I'm pretty annoyed about this as we're moving at a snail's pace, she has a tendency to go off on unnecessary tangents and she wastes half of each class going back over whatever we learnt the day before. I haven't heard of any other schools needing extra Chemistry classes and I'm worried that extra Chemistry classes on top of extra Maths will make the year even more stressful
We just started organic chemistry today

In chemistry we've done the Periodic Table, History of the Atom, Arrangement of Electrons in the Atom, Mole Concept, Acids & Bases, Volumetric Analysis of Acids & Bases, Chemical Bonding, Chemical Equations, Trends, Radioactivity, Stoichiometry I, Properties of Gases, Rates of Reactions and we're on Fuels & Heats of Reactions now. I'm pretty sure that's about 50% of the course maybe a bit more, so it'll probably be a tight enough squeeze trying to get the other 50% done before the Pres next year :eek:How is everybody doing with History and Biology. Trying to figure out if I'm doing well with the course or not.
In Biology, we've all of Unit 1 done, All of Unit 2 (apart from Enzymes, Respiration and Photosynthesis), and in Unit 3 we've done: Monera, Fungi, Protista, Structure of Flowering Plants, Transport in Plants, Blood, Circulatory System, Lymphatic System, Human Nutrition System and we're on the Human Reproductive System now 0 -
How is everybody doing with History and Biology. Trying to figure out if I'm doing well with the course or not.
In Biology we have done all of unit 1, cell structure, cell diversity, enzymes, advanced enzymes, respiration, diffusion/osmosis, cell division, classification of organisms, bacteria, fungi, protista, structure of flowering plants, and we're doing viruses at the moment. I don't do historyIn chemistry we've done the Periodic Table, History of the Atom, Arrangement of Electrons in the Atom, Mole Concept, Acids & Bases, Volumetric Analysis of Acids & Bases, Chemical Bonding, Chemical Equations, Trends, Radioactivity, Stoichiometry I, Properties of Gases, Rates of Reactions and we're on Fuels & Heats of Reactions now.

Whoa..We've only done history of the atom, arrangement of electrons, the periodic table, chemical bonding/formulae, chemical equations, trends, radioactivity, the mole concept and finishing off the properties of gases now. Which sounds like quite a lot now that I write it out, not compared to you though. I'll have to work on some of it over the summer I suppose

Tbh I don't think you're much further behind us. The only extra stuff we've done is Acids & Bases + the titrations and Rates of Reactions and Stoichiometry .
The Acids & Bases section is very short and easy, the titrations take some time to do but not really difficult. Rates of Reactions is very short and uncomplicated so don't worry about that! Stoichiometry is probably the shortest part of the course! Very simple if explained well. I wouldn't worry too much!0 -

I hate Biology so much.:mad: At least I understand History. What are you doing for your options? Have you started the project? That is the stress of my life!:mad:
Wow! Have you done all three of the comparatives? We're not doing an essay until we've done all three.
Thank God for the bank holiday!:D
We havent started the project just doing a bunch of essays for now, next October is Project month. and Yeah we finished the whole course last week i.e all poets done, KL etc. Its great! 0 -

We just finished our 3 texts so loads of comparative essays now
And the exams have been pushed forward a week and I haven't started revising, oops
We only do the one comparative essay, learn it off, then we can twist said essay for whatever title comes up since the title tends to be very broad you don't have to change a lot.0 -

Oh! I prefer the way we're doing it tbh cos it takes a lot of practice to get good at writing them, but I'm sure we'll be repeating ourselves somewhat throughout the essays 0 -

We're just finishing up with Unit 5 now. We've everything before that done (except for the Industrial Relations chapter).Hi guys was wondering does anyone do business ? Just wanna know how far are yee in the course and how do yee revise it ? Any tips?
Doing exam questions is the best way to revise business. Use the marking schemes to correct them and you'll soon see yourself improving! 0 -
wow! we are only finishing unit 4 ! thank you! May get studying:-(:-(:-(We're just finishing up with Unit 5 now. We've everything before that done (except for the Industrial Relations chapter).
