We're buying them 6 weeks before Chem, I think 3-4 months before Methods is ok.

... Good point. My brain is fried from being too active for too long :P

In your defence, we can kind of prioritise Unit 3 Chemistry since we don't have 4-6 exams to prepare for. But yeah, more than a few hours of mental/physical activity at a time can have serious ramifications :p

On that note, when will we see a Unit 4 Chemistry book?

I have "inside information" about the progress, it's being made as we speak :)

That was literally the case with how the first book went down.

Late January.

Thushan: "Detailed solutions??"

*3... months... later...*

I'm supposed to be writing spesh but I've been so busy getting all the other books ready I haven't had a moment to myself, let alone think about writing spec. Sadly, it may have to wait until next year. We'll see. After VCE Expo we'll assess our plan of attack for semester 2 (unit 4). Would you guys buy books as late as July for Methods/Spec?

Definitely! If it contains both unit 3&4! :D

I would think that if the methods/spesh books were split up, Exam 1/Exam 2 would be a more natural choice for doing that rather than by 'Unit 3' and 'Unit 4'

laseredd is on the ball, and that will in fact be the split.

All moderators are welcome to volunteer for the stall (help out, offer advice to students walking past the stall, create a good atmosphere etc.), but only people associated with the books will be allowed to process sales of the books (for obvious reasons).

Getting a variety of high-achieving students from various courses would be great for exposure. And extra Med students always sells well with certain demographics :P
