VCE Chemistry offers an extremely comprehensive introduction to chemical principles across a wide range of areas –there really is something to suit everyone, and this also places you in very good stead for further study at university, no matter where your interests lie. Whilst it may bea challenge, the Chemistry curriculum provides quite a captivating account of many parts of our everyday life.  \nThis year (2014) I am doing…  \na Bachelor of Laws/Bachelor of Science (Chemistry major, Biology minor) atthe Australian National University in Canberra.  \nThe best advice I can give VCE students about this exam is…  \nnever underestimate the power of practice exams! Do every one that you can get your hands on.  \nDevise a time management plan before the day of the exam. Everyone works differently, ﬁgure out what suits you best.  \nGroup study is a fantastic tool for Chemistry. In small groups, work through questions together, argue about how best to approach them, quiz each other on fundamental principles and concepts, and share any strategies/mnemonics/etc. that you have found useful.  \nThe best advice I got from my teacher about this exam was…  \nno study is ever wasted. No matter how effective you think a particular study  \nmethod is, or how much time you spend on it, every exposure to the course content will put you one step ahead. Be varied in your revision strategies.  \nIn the month before this VCE exam, I…  \nstudied every day, dividing my time evenly between all of my subjects, ensuring frequent study breaks, and also including exercise and time with friends (even if group study) at least a few times per week. For Chemistry, I prepared various types of content summaries and did targeted practice questions for every topic, before transitioning into full practice exams, and eventually timed practice exams, as many as I could get my hands on.  \nIn the week before this VCE exam I…  \ncompleted practice exams under timed VCAA exam conditions, about two per day. I liked to think of the week before each exam as the ‘dress rehearsal’, with revision done, and really perfecting exam strategy, time management, and the structure of written responses. I also forced myself to adhere to a minimum quota of exercise, sleep, and study breaks – wellbeing during this week is just as important as study!  \nOn exam day, I prepared myself by…  \nactively calming myself and keeping a clear head. The day of the exam is not the time for study, the hard work has already been done. I had a long and relaxing breakfast, did some light re-reading of notes (nothing rigorous), and pictured the euphoric feeling I would have atthe end of the exam if I emerged from the exam hall knowing I had done everything I possibly could.  \nAfter the exam, I   \nrelaxed! Chemistry was my last exam, so I didn’t have to do any further study afterwards. I discussed the exam with my teacher as she was very keen to knowhow I found it, but refrained from going into too much depth with my friends – instead, we went out and shared a meal together, and talked about everything  \nbut the VCE. No amount of stress or comparison after the exam will change the responses written on your paper, so the important thing is to be proud of the fact that you gave it your best effort, and to move on to the next thing, be that your next exam or the beginning of your postexam relaxation and celebration.  \nThe best exam advice I received from my parents, siblings or friends was…  \nto keep things in perspective. This exam is something you have been working towards the entire year, not just in the ﬁnal rush in October/November.
