Units 1/2 > Units 3/4

Hey there guys, absolutely enjoying chemistry right now (probably because i have a great teacher), and was wondering which topics are heavily used and important in Unit 3/4.
I just want to put the extra attention into these topics.
Thanks.

Pretty much everything except for history of chemistry.

Yeah most topics you cover in 1/2 are essential in some way for 3/4 (especially stoichiometry and mole concept, make sure you know them really well before the end of Year 11)

Although the stuff you learn at the beginning of the year I don't think is really needed, like electron configuration and atom structure

I think it would be good to know anyway - it might help with your understanding and reasoning and may be something to refer to in the odd application question.

Understanding electron configuration definitely helps you to grasp the principles behind spectroscopy.
