    Biology- Ecology, The Cell, DNA, Genetics.
    Physics- Light, Mechanics, Waves
    Applied Maths- Linear Motion, Relative Motion,
    Just started statics and equilibrium.

    I'm sure i've left some out, thats all i can remember off the top of my head.

    I remember this time last year I was on Particle Dynamics for Applied Maths and in Physics I was on Heat and Temperature maybe.

    Are you an external student or something?

    Biology: Some of these are partly done (and in no particular order) and it's all only off my head:
    Immunity, ecology, digestive system, lymphatic + circulatory system, the heart (pulmonary) system, the urinary (renal) system, fungi, plants (tropisms, growth regulators, etc), scientific method, food, the cell.

    Physics:
    Light, mechanics, energy, will probably have heat + energy done by the end of the year.

    Don't do applied maths, sorry!

    Physics - Light, heat, sound and we're doing mechanics now (about to start Boyles law)
    We're a really small class (6 of us) and my teacher is really good. I think we're ahead of where this years 6th years were this time last year.

    Can't remember where I was in April last year but in Applied Maths, we had Q1 Linear Motion, Q2 Relative Velocity, Q3 Projectiles, Q4 Connected Particles and Q5 Collisions finished by May.

    In 6th year, we started with Q7 Statics, then Q6 SHM/Circular Motion, then Q10 Differential Equations.

    That brought us up to about January in 6th year. From then on we are using exams all the time up until June.

    If it's of any relevance, we did Applied Maths outside of school, 2 days a week (an hour per day).
