So I am in the area in between years 10-11. I am currently on exchange and I have a lot of time so I thought I would study for year 11's topics so that the next few years would be easier. The main subjects I wan't to focus on are Biology and Chemistry. I had bought a book without doing any real research beforehand (excel's HSC Biology) but I found that it was mainly used for revision. I would just like to know what kind of textbook would be ideal for me to use to study for Biology and Chemistry. Thanks

I'd recommend looking up the actual textbooks used at wherever you'll be going for year 11.
