I'm just going in numerical order through the textbook chapters, the first couple aren't too hard to grasp, just some year 11 revision + taking notes

just some year 11 revision + taking notes

+1

Go over valencies, solubilities, acid+base reactions, oxidation numbers, properties of stuff, all the formulas, and then do what luken93 was saying: start a few of the first chapters

I'm going over mole, lattices, bonding, acid/base, solubility and mastering the periodic table. I'll probably do a lot of equations too, just to get really good with them, and hopefully start chem unit 3 before the first of jan and finish it before the term starts.

The first chapter of StudyOn is all Year 11 Revision, which is good to keep you up to date with anything you've forgotten :)

I'm up to Spect, but I'm going back and looking at Chromo again, it's kinda confusing. Youtube here I come, I need to see some real life examples!

Surprisingly, I didn't get any set Chemistry homework from school.

That having been said, I've started the first chapter of the Heinemann Chemistry 2 textbook. I'm hoping to finish all of Unit 3, if not, most of it, before school starts again. xD

That's my aim. By finishing Unit 3 early, you'll have time to do heaps of practice exams, while everyone else is still going through the Unit 3 course. The more practice you do, the better you'll get.
