12 units is a bit overkill with all those extensions imo

I would drop the sor II if I had a choice...but I'd rather have the extensions that I enjoy than low-scaling subjects I'd have to grit my teeth through like legal studies or biology.

Maybe keep SORII for a little during the first term to make sure that it is the subject you would most like to drop.

But tbh I suppose it would be easier to just not do it in the first place. Subject selection looks fine.

You can get an ATAR 99.95 if your combo is the worst. So anything you choose is good :)

I dont think you can. LOL. Cause some subjects like languages even if you get 100 it doesnt scale to .95

you can ask for a tutor and do mx2 outside of school (if you really want to)

only thing i recommend you do is have super good time management
1 majors is already destroying me, 2 would be overkill (hist ext and ext 2 english are always due around the same time at my school at least so glhf)
