My french class got cancelled due to staffing cuts (im so glad cos it was getting incredibly confusing with italian by ohs) and i wish i took art instead of society and culture which i ended up dropping at the end of yr 11 cos the teacher was such a fuckhead. and i wish i took mathematics instead of general cos a lot of uni courses either require or recommend it. but i love general cos its so easy :D

I regret that for my year9 electives I chose to do dance and va, a total waste of time. It was SO bludgy -.- my other elective was Business Technology (commerce+computing) that was kind of a waste of time since it was all the basic stuff. I wish I had chosen to do latin instead of dance and hmm not quite sure what else besides va. I also regret not choosing to do ext eng in year11 >< rarara.

Was there elective history? We had compulsory history. My year 9 electives were cool, commerce, textiles and french. I don't have any missed opportunities. Woulda done french in yr 11 n 12 if i wasn't so bad at it.

Maybe Elective History is extra periods of history on top of the compulsory one.

I'd have liked to have given EE1 a try but nonetheless, I'm still happy with my current subjects.

visual arts - i'd never gotten below 97% in my junior years... so i should have taken advantage of the fact i was good at that subject =.=

music - i'm amus level in violin... WHY didn't i do it??? -.-

*sigh*

instead i opted for the extremely typical honki subjects: 4u maths, 3u eng (lol... not so typical), physics, chem, accounting...

oh wellz... can't do anything now... -____-;;

I wanted to do cont/ext French and ext History.

Couldn't do French because they didn't offer it at my school. Couldn't do Mod History because it was on the same line as Softare Design/Development.

So did we... i had classical studies, asian studies and media studies in yr 9, but classical changed to accelerated sor 2u in year 10, so i only had 2 junior electives. which both sucked. i wanted elective history and italian, but only like 3 people chose them so they didnt run.

I did 3 electives (in junior school) and was really happy with them but I would have liked to have done sport science. It looked like an awesome course (archery, gymnastic pracs and sport pracs in general) and it had the most awesome teacher!! :D
