Hi,

For chemistry (and in general science) notes how should they be written and formatted?
Should you specifically address each dot point with what the dot point is above it?
Or should you put it in more of a flowing manner, that goes from one idea to the next with reference to the dot point?
How does everyone else do it?

Thanks

Formatting isn't that important. Just make sure you can understand. For HSC, it is just best to address each dotpoint as you see fit. Thats how I did it. Some dotpoints only require a sentence or two though.

Different strokes for different folks. If you do order it by single dot point, it is important that you show how this dot point links to other dot points (which may even be in different topics!) Often in HSC / trials now the bigger mark questions encompass more than one dot point, so you must show how things link.

Thank you very much guys, I'll address each dot point and try to link them together (though not sure exactly how this will work) :)
