Hi, I'm currently taking Chemistry 1A03 and I heard that Chemistry 1E03 students also use the same textbook so I just wanted to ask anyone who has ever taken any of these particular courses which exercises at the end of each chapter are more useful in the long run and in the course itself (Regular exercises, Integrative/Advanced exercises or Feature problems)? I'm curious because I doubt I will have time to complete most of them since I'm still adjusting to the workload)

Yeah, I took Chem 1A03/1AA3 last year and yes there a lot of textbook exercises. I felt that a lot of the textbook exercises for me were useless to do but some of the Integreative/Advanced exercises were good since they were challenging and incorporated a few important concepts. I think the best practice for CHEM 1A03/1AA3 are the practice midterms/exams they post and the tutorial questions. Just be smart about which textbook questions you do, like doing the easy questions over and over won't help. Good luck!

I didn't do a single textbook question, and it didn't hurt me at all. There are more than enough practise problems from the tutorials and old midterms.
