What would you rate my Senior Subject Workload for Year 11? (1 Viewer)

[r4id3r]

Hi BOS, first time poster here.
I'm just wondering what you guys would rate the difficulty of coping with/being able to manage the subjects I've chosen (judging by personal experience) and maybe some tips on how to best go about making the most of out them.
TOTAL: 13 Units
Adv Eng 2U
Ext Eng 1U
Adv Maths 2U
Ancient History 2U
Biology 2U
Chemistry 2U
Drama 2U
Thanks!

Most people are around that 12/13 unit mark, so I reckon you'll be fine if you put in the effort. I also think Drama has quite a bit less work than the other subjects (at least at my school), and so could make your life much easier.

I hear that extension 1 english is a heavy workload for a 1 unit subject

Just advanced english is a heavy workload hahaha

English ext 1 is a massive workload! the teachers wont help much so you have to spend as much time on it as a 2U subject (or more)

As opposed to other extension subjects, which are usually additions onto a particular subject, English Extension 1 can be considered to be a whole new course, and so yes, it is demanding.

Keep in mind that it scales worse then your other subjects so I wouldn't exactly be coasting along in it.

It actually depends on your ext1 english teacher
