Getting Ahead...

[ben_ess12]

Definitely could cover the Bus Man Course over the summer holidays, then learn the finer details in class etc throughout the year.

In terms of PE ben_ess12, I would probably cover AOS1 in the holidays (NPAG, ecological model or whatever it is etc etc) but leave the next AOS (energy systems) until you do it in class, as it is the most important area of the course. All or most of of Unit 4 relates specifically to energy systems, hence ideally 75% of the exam will be on such concepts and related ones. So I would wait for your teacher to take you through it.

Thanks for the p.e advice. i didnt really look into AOS 2 too much, doing AOS 1 atm (the holiday homework is based on it) and it seems pretty basic-ish so far...
but i will wait for the teacher to go over energy systems, a few ppl have mentioned energy systems are important so i guess it will be better to take on all of this advice thanks for that. Did you do all the chapter questions relating to AOS 1 now and write notes now?

as for business, i have noticed how small it is, my 1/2 book was bigger :/ but i have briefly gone through fist AOS and have a decent understanding i will probably go through the rest and have a brief knowledge of the course

My plan is to complete AOS1 of each of my subjects, read all my lit+english books (there is a shitload of books) then just push on as far beyond that as I can. For all my subjects I'm just gonna sumarise the textbook in my own words and do the exercises in the textbooks relating to each topic i larn and make sure I understand every topic/concept before I move onto the next one on the list... Quite simple realy.

sounds like you have a plan i would say thats a lot of work and reading to do but if your wanting 99 i guess its something your gonna need to do...
i plan on going through the book for busines and p.e and writing AOS 1 notes at least for both subjects andtrying o answer most chapter questins

It's not that much work. Judging by how fast I'm getting through economics I should be able to know an AOS back to front in about 1-2 weeks and it doesn't impact at all on my life outside school... so if I keep going at the same speed I don't see any reason why I can't be done by a couple of weeks before holidays end.

I didn't do much PE homework at all over the summar holidays, I mainly did english. But as you say, AOS 1 in PE is fairly straightforward, I'd get stuck into that now, like you're already doing.

With Bus Man, make sure you go through HR management, which is AOS 1 in Unit 4 if I recall correctly. It seems to be a large part of the course. The first area of study will most likely only feature in a minimal fashion on the exam, eg the characteristics of LSOs. Also, know the environments (Internal, Operating and Macro) as this ties in with the rest of the course. (You probably already have this covered from Unit 1 and 2.)

I wouldn't worry about HR until you finish unit 3.

So I take it your doing a little bit every single day? Seems like a good idea I might try and implement it as well...
Goodluck with your plan as well

Cheers thanks for that I just want to get a bit ahead as I will have a pretty hetic sporting schedule next year and any chance o get to move forward would be good thanks again

And to burberry I doubt il even look at unit4 till next year anyways a least but thanks for the tip

I've been reading my english and literature texts over the holidays. Read 2 so far, Booyah!
Concerning Maths, Chemistry, I've been gradually working through the chapters which has not been so difficult thus far. However, I"ve been leaving out my economics, bit lazy to start on it actually xD.. But will try >.... When I ABSOLUTELY have nothing to do, I just write random paragraphs for language analysis. I guess it helps being productive

[ben_ess12]

^^^^ goood job there water (i like the name as well )
i think a bit of work every day or two will be sufficient

[darren94]

Correct me if I'm wrong... so basically, you guys are just using the dot points off the study design as topic headings, then writing notes about each and going down for each AoS?

[Liuy]

Yes I think so.
Also remember to apply your knowledge by doing questions etc.

[ben_ess12]

@darren, i plan on doing that, or basically dedicating one section of a book to AOS 1 and handwriting everything i feel is relevant and on study design

how should i approach psych? we were just told to read the first chapter of our textbooks and make notes.
