I like Unit 3, more 'maths' apparently

Nope definitely more maths in Unit 4 - all the equilibrium constant stuff.
Unit 3 is more enjoyable but Unit 4 is shorter, less breadth and more depth.

More maths = more goodness

I've heard there's more explanations though :(

Is it like the pre-2008 Unit 3 Exams?

They seem to have a lot of equilibrium stuff in it.

I'm only up to ch 17 so far (for the Heinemann people), but from what i've done and what i've skimmed ahead on it seems very straight forward. 
2010 : Accounting
2011 : Methods (CAS) | Chemistry  | Physics  | English Language  | Specialist Maths

2012: BCom/BSc @ Monash!

Unit 3, harder, but more enjoyable.

Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out --
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me -- and there was no one left to speak for me.

Unit 4, i liked all the equilibrium stuff and how all this chemistry actually applies in the industrial world.

That and i hated organic with a passion.

unit 4-well easier to understand, but i think its an uglier unit.
unit three was more interesting but harder so...

Yeah, I don't like all the cells and things like that, but equilibrium/electrolysis/electrochemstuff is ok.
