hey guysss can someone pls review my subjects for yr 11, i feel like i have the default student subjects. Im looking for a career in like medicine (gp, dentistry, vet) or if i dont get in then business (analyst)
they are:
eng ext 1
- i get like satisfactory marks in eng currently so im def dropping this in yr 12 but Im only doing extension so it can help with my advanced in yr 12 and also to help me fill in one more extra unit. I really dont want to do morning classes thooo. btw i have an english tutor
maths ext 1
- i get like pretty middish high marks in maths and if i work hard enough i def think i can do it. i have a maths tutor
bio
- ive already started tutoring for this so i think i wont be changing this choice
chem
-ive also started tutoring for this, need this for medicine def
business studies
- okok i was thinking either business studies or economics but i think i enjoy more small world things and less abstract info to apply. should i be doing tutoring for this tell me pls. i get like really ass marks in commerce tho but maybe i just need to work harder??

I play the cello and piano and i do music as an elective so i was thinking music for a back up subject but i feel like i cant balance practicing my instrument and studying for 2 sciences effectively. i also get mid ass marks in music sooo

total is 12 units cuz i think if u do 13 you get 2 less free periods?? idk but i want as much studying time as possible to maximise the marks

someone help me pls im so lost and my subjects are literally due in like 4 days

Business is waaaaay easier than eco so i've heard-
plus apparently from older years i've heard it's easier to band 6 so i'd say go for that. And for tutoring if you have an English tutor you don't really need it cause it's pretty straight forward, you just need to really know subject specific things as teachers will look for this because they know the subject is straight forwards so they kinda wanna see if you know more than the average person- if that makes sense.

Honestly i did music and had 14 units, but i dropped it and went to 12 units because of the fact that i didn't actually have any study periods at all- and it is quite a bit to balance. However, if you still have study periods in total, it should be ok but genuinely study periods are a GIFT FROM GODDDDDDDD. so like yeah- if you're getting 'mid' marks in music then don't push yourself to go for it, especially if you wanna drop it for year 12 because you seem like you need the other subjects a lot-

hope this helppssssssss

I read the first part and I thought us said that English was straight forward and that u didn't need a tutor for it and I was gonna punch u jk

 

[cindicle]

why does it change if u change schools

different schools offer different subjects!! (due to factors like scaling, student interest, teacher capability, etc.)

I've had a look at the rubric for each module, and it is pretty much the same as the current syllabus, except new texts.

The good thing is, the new bio and chem syllabi are going to be more explict in what you need to know for your exams.

 

[melanie_o]

I can’t pick between bio or chem
(I’d do both to see which one I prefer but sounds like my school won’t let me do 14 units)

If you want to go into any science/STEM related degrees, chemistry is oftentimes a prerequisuite (i.e mandatory) whilst bio is normally assumed knowledge, at least for USyd and most medical degrees.

lots of people seem to enjoy ext 1 math more than adv but my friend hates ext soooo much and she had a whole ass rant about it last week lol. Like she said that the formulas there don't make sense and are useless whereas the stuff in adv was more logical

Like yeah, it obviously is subjective. What I mean is that for the actual HSC exam, it is lowkey chill up until the last two questions.

Babes, trust the process. Also you lowkey don't need an insainely high raw mark to get an E4.

As someone who literally failed my combinatorics test in year 11 but now getting 80s, it will get better. I promise.

 

[Study to success]

In my school half the ext class is considering dropping cause the teacher is like if u don't get a 70% in the next exam then this course isn't right for u. So even the people who are passing are considering dropping and honestly I don't think they should cause a raw mark of 50 or 60 will still scale up like really high

That is insane! Most years, a 60 is a pretty decent E3 like wtf.
