Year 12 HSC Chemistry

Equilibrium, acids and bases, organic and the analysis modules — made intuitive, then drilled against real exam questions until the technique holds under pressure.

The next place to start is Module 6.

Module 5 is underway and enrolments are closed. New students join at the start of Module 6 — Acid/Base Reactions — on Saturday 31 October, and the waitlist is open now.
