Some Questions
Should I take all 3 of the U-level sciences?
For university, lots of students take all 3 U
courses in grade 11 to keep their options
open, then take only the ones they need in
grade 12.
Summer School?
Summer school and private school will not
prepare you properly for your later studies.
