One of the key tips for success in VCE Chemistry is to make use of the available practice exam and past papers. Using the helpful resources on Studyclix for VCE Chemistry can also help students to to do well in exams. Some of the VCE Chemistry resources including videos, notes and practice material. Using these tools and resources can help replace VCE Chemistry tuition and improve your grade for the VCE Chemistry final exam.

 

According to the VCAA, studying VCE Chemistry “can enrich students’ lives through the development of particular knowledge, skills and attitudes, and enable them to become scientifically informed citizens. It will also provide a window on what it means to be a scientific researcher, working as a member of a community of practice, including insight into how new ideas are developed and investigated, and how evidence or data collected is used to expand knowledge and understanding of chemistry.”
