Chemistry Exam 1 VCE Unit 3 is an invaluable tool for Year 12 students preparing to sit the mid-year VCE Chemistry Exam. Specifically designed to address the latest 2008-2012 VCE Study Design, the resource is divided into tests that gradually increase in length, content and difficulty.

It contains nine practice exams for the 2008–2012 VCE Chemistry Units 3 and 4 Study Design. A separate solutions CD is provided with both so teachers can control students’ access to answers.

Students may benefit from this valuable resource from the very start of the year to increase their understanding of key concept areas, to improve their performance in school assessed coursework, and most importantly, to build their skills and knowledge for the end of year examination.

· Graduated difficulty – the resource is divided into tests that gradually increase in length, content and difficulty. Use it throughout the semester, not just before the actual exam

· No teacher or student preparation is required – students write into the book

· Bonus detachable exam included – produced on perforated paper, it allows for easy tear-out and can be used as a formal assessment task

· Great value – designed and priced to be used by each individual student

· Separate solutions CD so teachers can control access

· The solutions CD provides comprehensive and detailed solutions for each examinable Area of Study.
