    Multiple Choice Exam-type Questions

    There are also multiple choice practice tests available on BoS website. I'd say study hard and focus on the minor details, and keep doing revision over and over, as well as HSC past papers because they could use those questions again.

    Dropping maths?

    Drop down to General Maths if you feel you don't do well, but if it requires 2U, then drop another subject, and use your free periods to focus more time on Maths. It also depends whether you like or dislike Maths.

    What subject should I drop for next year.

    I would say keep bio, but due to the fact you're already doing heavy loaded subjects. get rid of bio. modern's surely easier.

    Failed my half yearlies:(

    I done pretty badly in my trials, and they were all worth 5-15% apart from legal which was 30%, but I'm still going to try and turn it around in the second half. Trials usually are worth a lot, so do your best for them and upcoming assessment tasks. Also it depends on your ranks as well.

    Is it difficult to keep 12 units for HSC?

    I'm doing 14 units. Shouldn't be too hard if you manage to stay on top of things, complete your work and study everyday. Also it's better to keep an extra 2 units just incase you stuff up in a HSC subject. If you feel that you can't cope, you can always drop a subject later on in the year. :)

    School certificate

    Yeah they'll give you a formula sheet but from what I've seen in practice papers, you don't really need to use it that much anyway.

    Subject Selections

    Some schools say a certain combinations gets you a certain ATAR but eh, it doesn't really matter as long as you do well in them! I should probably choose a 7th subject as a back-up just incase I fail one of the six.
