UPDATE #1:
Exam and Holidays
I realise that I have not been active at all since about October, but it was really fun starting this VCE journey journal so don't ditch this journal just yet
. I did pretty well in exams and have finished some of my holiday homework and have started the Bio 3/4 course with help from the Doutchy's Biology on Edrolo. Having said that, if anyone's done 3/4 with Edrolo, especially without previously doing 1/2, I would love some advice on generally how much the online course actually covers (and also perhaps major gaps in knowledge as a possible result of not undertaking 1/2), as I have realised that I often found external note sheets tend to have quite a lot of extra information, which isn't explained on the online videos so it would be really helpful if anyone can just provide a general guide on how I should be using Edrolo as a resource (and also any other helpful resources I could use). I also managed to get my hands on a PDF version of Cambell's biology, after seeing a previous thread on how to do well in Bio. However, I'm not quite sure how to efficiently and effectively utilise the textbook as it is very lengthy and various portions are more advanced than what I expect would be expected at VCE Bio. And our school generally doesn't really adopt a textbook oriented style of teaching (They mainly make their own booklets for topics covered in science, without any textbook), so tips to tackle it will be extremely helpful.
Otherwise, my work on other subjects (no order) is as follows:
Latin: No assigned homework, planning to start revising grammar/vocab 1.5 weeks before school starts.
Chem: Quite a lot of homework, but most of it is straightforward, self explanatory, haven't done it yet, would take a day max to complete (complete next week?)
English: Read 2 books... VS litchart summaries?
Methods: Homework was very straightforward, pretty much just revision, COMPLETED
Spec: Some parts were alright, some parts were actually quite challenging
1-2 Questions left
Physics: Like chem, but less, will complete at same time as chem.
Looking back... I realise I haven't really done that much work
Extra note: I would also appreciate any notetaking tips/general approaches to the subject, especially geared towards Bio.
