Hmm my class is also up to moving about, though we've been told that we're a bit behind as well.

Don't worry, as long as your notes are good and you're familiar with everything, you should finish on time and be ready for your prelims.
You should be doing your 4th module by now. If you've just started your 3rd module, you'll have to rush something.

Wooo.... finished everything yearlies etc
I met the autor of the Jacaranda Physics book and Brian Shadwick (author of DOTPOINT) apparently alot of schools dont do Cosmic engine because theres not enough time to complete the course....

i see most of us are done though

We're still doing The Cosmic Engine, and I personally think it's stupid doing it when our Preliminary Exams are over...

Does anyone else think that doing it is stupid? I mean, wouldn't it make sense to get on with HSC?

I totally agree. With exams finished ---> Preliminary course finishes. We should start the HSC course.

Yeah we didn't have Cosmic Engine included in our Yearly either because we ran out of time to cover it beforehand. The same thing happened in my PDHPE class, we couldn't get the last topic finished. But it's still apart of the syllabus so they still technically have to cover it. In both cases though we didn't get too majorly into it, we just brushed over it and watched some DVDs or whatever. And my physics teacher said that the Cosmic Engine stuff runs into the first topic we're doing next term, so we were mainly just covering the important foundation parts required to set us up for next term.

True.
Cosmic Engine (Yr 11) ---> Space (Yr 12) and Astrophysics (Yr 12 option)
