It counts as a 2 unit course towards your HSC. Its a category B course!

The way it counts is the first year is 70% comprimising of 21% class assessments and 49% is the final exam. THe second year involves computers, 30% is made up here.

I not too sure how it will be displayed on the HSC certificate, i tell you by next year.

Thanx for saying that. I'm doing the yr 11 course right now (will be finished a couple of weeks). I was wondering how I would survive if they Yr12 course was harder than Yr11. So thanx for reassuring me :)

computers was easy, you do myob and basic introdution stuff on office programs. The assesments were open book as well, so its a breeze compared to yr11.

Year 11 , is basically learing about accountancy , like depreciation ( at the end of the year ), payroll , etc . I am guessing my mark for my class mark , around about 78 ( by dividing all my class results) , and about mid 70's for my exam, I think.

Year 12 (computing course) you do myob for 2 terms.( you can actually do it in about 11-12 weeks if you know what you are doing , me and my friend , had almost about 6 weeks off from tafe becasue we were that far ahead).
For the myob tests , for both of them I got in the 90's (97 and 95).


Then It is word , excel, Access, Powerpoint. They are easy too , you can also get 90's for these


And then you are done. Finished by term three of your year 12.

You have already done your HSC exam at the end of Year 11 , so that is one in the bag, and one less thing to worry about.

My advice to everyone taking accounting at TAFE , to put in some effort in year 11 , becasue then you can sorta relax in Year 12, because the MYOB Stuff is easy.

ok....this is wat happen to a skool friend of mine who did fail the yr 11 Accounting exam....this is what u do, do the yr 12 computer accounting at either skool or tafe, which ever your skool supports, then redo the yr 11 course during the nite and complete the exam in Mid 05... but this skool friend of mine actually had enough units so she quit the course... depend how u going to cope with your work. :)

I have 12 units (including Accounting) so I would drop the course IF I COULD but stupid school has a rule saying I can't drop it at ALL coz it's too late to apply for 10units.

So I'm not gonna bother to go to the Year 12 course.

How will this affect my HSC? It wasnt gonna count in UAI anyway - all my others subject marks are 85+ and I'm almost guareented getting 95+ in Legal (so my teacher says)

Anyway anyone ever been in my situation? I've tried to talk to sum teachers at school but they dont seem to care.

the yr 11 exam is worth like 49% of the course

although yr 12 is an easy 30%, failing the yr 11 exam really means u r out of band 5 territory

i would drop it

focus on ur other subjects
