About Grade 10 Science (SNC2D)
- SNC2D is the academic Grade 10 science course. The applied option is SNC2P.
- Students need SNC2D to take SBI3U, SCH3U and SPH3U in Grade 11.
How to do well
- Practise balancing equations dailyBalancing and naming compounds appear across the chemistry unit and in Grade 11 chemistry.
- Draw ray diagrams carefullyOptics marks depend on accurate diagrams with a ruler and labelled rays.
- Track the achievement chartOntario teachers mark Knowledge, Thinking, Communication and Application separately. A tutor can show you which category is costing you marks.
