Summer School TSFX or TSSM?

[nina_rox]

Lucky! Your school allows you to do 2 3/4 subjects..! My school only allows one 3/4 in yr 11 and the subjects they offer are pretty bad neither methods or bio...

[LOLs99]

Wow, r u in year 11 now? coz mostly government school get to do many 3/4 sub in year 11 coz they don't care much
while catholic school has less chance of doing more than one. what sub are you doing next year?
I just went to NEAP lecture today and pretty good(coz free) + bought some study guides with discount.
Can tell you that NEAP smartstudy guides are AWESOME and I did buy their new advantage
series for mm 3/4 + bio 4..can't buy unit 3 bio coz it will be available next year hehe

[nina_rox]

Ohh yeah that's probably why.. I go to a catholic school. I'm doing englang, methods, spesh, physics ad chem next year
How many session are there for neap? For how long?

[LOLs99]

Haha yeah, and which catholic school?
2 sessions but repeat = 2 hours each session..
I'm planning to go some summer lectures as
I will be quite free..can't choose between so
many company..well, worth for attending TSSM
3 for the price of 2?

[nina_rox]

Yeah I was thinking about that too but if it crappy then you'd rather go to TSFX right?

[LOLs99]

I'm from a catholic school too- smc
but changing soon.. Yeah true, and what do you
think? I was thinking it's quite worth(money)+ I will get
the CAS session for $35 if I'm going for 3 subjects..But you will be srs dead if
you are gonna pay 290 for to the crap lectures for sitting there 24 hours :-O .(3 lectures)..
Btw  pay $600 for going TSFX lectures for spesh, mehtods, chem, physics?..
or paying $290 for three subject+  a subject from TSFX around $140?

[nina_rox]

Yeah true, TSSM is much cheaper but if the notes aren't that good.. then you'd rather pay more for better notes that you'd use throughout the next year.. I was thinking Neap or TSFX for Chemistry and Physics (if anyone knows which is better let me know) and then for Spesh maybe Derrick if not then TSFX

[LOLs99]

Yeah, your synopsis is right and can't really confirm it though..
Help me! why don't one of us try TSSM and TSFX and give feedback
regarding to the summer lectures.Haha, maybe chem for TSFX but the lady
Irena Jaskula is kind of funny which teach stuff that's out of topic and complicates
all her students...so watch out! Physics for NEAP as there is a man name something DeJong
which seems to be pro..Well, if Derrick Ha is not conveient for travelling then I would suggest you
go TSFX as their notes are better than anywhere else..Derrick Ha sessions are more and goes for
a week +, so it will kind of wasted all ur holiday time while TSFX only 3 days.

[nina_rox]

Ahh! Yeah, I don't know what to do now. I wish we could choose which lecturer we wanted.. that would change things.. I'm probably going to go to Neap for physics and TSFX for spesh. And have you been to the chemistry one for TSFX? Because in the brochure it says either Ms Irena Jaskula or Ms Sarah Pend could do the lecture?

[nina_rox]

and Access Education for chemistry? How do you know all this? Have you been or have you had people go to them?

[LOLs99]

Sarah Peng...yea, both are good...but maybe chris would be more good.
Well, all my frens love lectures and go to a few for every term..
They try out most of the famous lectures and that's why it's easy for me
to get a good lecture..Well, go both ..TSFX and Access for chem as access only $52..pretty cheap even if it's not good+only one day rather than going to a three day lectures which you get bored at the first lecture and wouldn't even bother going the rest..heh
I have been to a few although i'm in year10 and pretty good...

[nina_rox]

Haha okay, thanks for your help. are you planning to go to lectures in the summer holiday? Depending on your subjects most are pretty straight forward with the help of your teacher you'll do more than fine.

[LOLs99]

Yes, definitelt but wouldn't go too much as I don't see the point going too many subjects.
I might save up the money for travelling
So, should be fine, but just toss up between NEAP or TSFX Methods,Bio..
haha np and wish you the best

[nina_rox]

Thank you, you too. Btw one last question do you think TSFX chem or Neap chem would be better when comparing notes?

[LOLs99]

I would actually think of TSFX are way better for notes
but TSFX lecturer just repeat what's on the notes..
so basically you just need to buy the notes from someone
and will cost cheaper..
while NEAP lecturer go through different things , not from the notes
and give you an overview(notes)of the unit 4 stuff, so you can prepare
at the same time.
