Make sure to pay attention in class and use the booklet to your advantage. Stay up to date with homework, if not, ahead of class. There is no need to read ahead unless you feel the need to. For formulas, make sure to write them down in a notebook so you can easily memorise them as you use them. Also, memorise the constant (the more you use them, the easier it is to memorise). Do well in SACs as you will not need as much to revise on. Additionally, say you achieved a mark of 80% in a chemistry test, revise the remaining 20% as it will most likely be useful for the exam. Furthermore, if you (for example) achieve a mark of 70% and 80% on two separate SACs, that is 50% of knowledge you need to revise in order to gain a solid understanding of the content. REVISE! And most of all... Have fun! This class is always engaging.
