Why I chose Physics (instead of Chemistry or both) according to my Year 10 mind set:In our school they mark the prac really harshly and they give the top marks to the people who have competed internationally.
Basically only like 20 people in our grade don't do commerce and the highest mark achieved was 18. The social science department in our school hate giving full marks.
I've just a question, why did you do physics instead of chem? I'm just curious cos most people do either chem alone or do chem and physics.
- Wanted to do at least ''1 science''. Yeah that Asian mentality.
- Physics seemed more ''interesting'' and ''crazy'' (in a good way) than Chemistry.
- I was considering Commerce/Engineering for university, whereby Physics would seem to benefit me more if I went down that path.
Funny thing is, I felt more comfortable with Chemistry concepts than Physics concepts in Year 10 so I picked interest over strength.
If I could go back in time, I'd probably still choose Physics (and keep it) OR instead, pick Legal Studies (seeing how I had better success with other social sciences like Economics and Business Studies).
However, I did ''waste'' $$$ for 2 years of Physics tuition...
In the end, Physics didn't count cause I did 12 units. Really didn't matter if I chose Chemistry instead (but I do have a feeling Chemistry might have suited me better) cause I was much stronger in my social sciences than any science.
