Nothing really counts from year 11. Except for math.

Focus on year 12.

You shouldn't be summarising Year 11 work unless you need it to reinforce what you're learning now. Year 11 content is not tested in the HSC exams. Rather, try summarising what you're learning right now.

qft again :D. Only 30% of preliminary mathematics content goes towards the HSC. But for the other subjects such as the sciences and HSIE subjects, don't bother learning the preliminary content for the HSC, as it won't pop up in the final exams. Just concentrate on the HSC work that your currently doing, print out the syllabus and go through each dotpoint question and answer them.

And do past papers and practice questions.

QFT! (QED)

There are still heaps of assume knowledge that you must know about your course. Still it's not worth revising the whole yr 11 by taking notes or stuff, just re-read what you are weak at. That's it!

You'll notice that only some concepts from the year eleven chemistry course translate into the year twelve course. These include endothermic/exothermic reactions, molar calculations, combustion, molar heat of combustion etc. The very important concepts. So if anything, if you come across these concepts in year twelve, just revise them fron year 11. Don't do the whole year eleven course again, because the majority isn't in year 12. I'm assuming this is the same for physics and biology. Good luck.
