Module One

FORMULAE, EQUATIONS AND AMOUNT OF SUBSTANCE

Introduction

This module should be read in conjunction with the Programme of Study.

The Programme of Study lists the topics that are in the module and gives you the relevant page references for your textbook. This module aims to give you more direction as you work through the various topics. It will aim to highlight the most important items in the topic, as well as areas that need particular care. It will also point you towards the resources you should be using.

Remember to double-check the syllabus to make sure you cover all the items that you need to.

Module Overview

This section should revise and refresh key skills acquired at IGCSE. Review the maths skills too. It might be worthwhile printing out the Maths Student Guide, if you feel your maths is weak (also pages 290 to 295 in your textbook).
