Anyone bought the recommended science book ? I think the notes from teacher is not enough for their homework . Please advise . Thanks .

Totally 5 books are recommended (non-compulsory) for Chemistry and Physics.

I bought from Popular for my DS \"Chemistry Insights O level\" by Rex Malcolm Heyworkth, JCR Briggs, which costs me around 30$.

Except \"Conceptual Physics\" by Paul G Hewitt, all the 4 books are available in popular.

Chemistry Expression - An Inquiry approach by Oon Hock Leeong and others - $11.13
GCE O level chemistry matters by Tan Yin Toon and others - $33.17
GCE O level Physics matters by Chew, Charles and Chow, Siew Foong - $33.45
All prices are before 10% member discount.

My DS just went thru the book I bought a few times and said it's colourful.

Plan to buy other books, one or two for each month. Don't want to load everything at one go. Think these books are useful for all 4 years.

Most schools choose to use either Chemistry Insights or Chemistry Matters for GCE O Level. They have similar contents, so you only need one of these books.

Makes sense also. I would probably buy one each for Physics and Chemistry. Thx.

Hi to seniors and parents,


Any tips on how to cope with IS - chemistry in JH1? It seems like quite a challenge to cope with this subject.

Other than reading the recommended text and Internet, is there any other way to better cope with this subject?

Thanks in advance.

Equally helpless here. Just printed some very brief fundamental chemical concepts for my DD from BBC \"Elements and Reactions\". I don't even know if it is of any help to her. Will show her later. Feel so insecure, no textbook other than recommended reference books.
