-Should not have dropped maths.
-Should have stuck with physics
-Should not have done modern. Too much content and memorising.
-Visual arts... major work...idk, we'll see how this goes when I get my atar :L The subjectivity can be daunting- covered too much or too little. Eco would have been wiser but it's not offered at my school so...
-Should not have switched schools at the end of year 10. Biggest mistake.
-Should have gone to a top 100 school when had the chance in yr 7. -> no compulsory religion for HSC.

So many regrets.

Maybe I shouldn't have done 3u maths because it's time consuming but I don't know...

Everything else is good though.

Hmm probably 3u maths (But I was more than capable, just lost interest in it) and perhaps I'd have replaced legal studies with modern history. I should have put some more effort into 2u maths and dropped history extension.

I personally have no regrets with my subject selection, its a big workload but I reckon it will be worth it.

What's wrong with MedSc at USYD bruh
Nothing, but I do MedSc/Engg which is shit

And like, I should've accepted the AAA and done MedSc at UNSW because I know people there and since I'm naturally competitive and these friends are smart I would've done better.

Or I should've done Sc/Law or something with the AAA. :spin:

Should've dropped Hospitality instead of Business Studies - WORST SCALING SUBJECT EVARRRR
Should've tried a little harder/stopped being lazy and do what I was suppose to do. /sigh

Shouldn't have chosen Ancient History and picked up Extension History. I kind of regret dropping Business Studies since it was my forte and not choosing economics and extension english.

No regrets really - geography was a tad annoying considering there was so much content and it scales terribly and only 1 unit of it counted for my ATAR in the end.

Regret doing SDD in yr 11, should've done economics or Arabic Beginners(really wanted to do this but school wouldn't let me).

Sort of regret doing Azn 5 but other than subjects above don't know what I would've done instead.

Just to chip in:

No regrets.

I did all the subjects I wanted to do, and even though I had like 14 units - I didn't mind. I was doing subjects I genuinely liked, so it was never really that much of a chore to study.

That's why I, and everyone else, should do subjects they like - I feel.

I really have no regrets. There were decisions I had to make that I didn't like. I was in the hospital for a lot of year 10 and missed a lot of year 9, so even though I am intelligent enough to do advanced maths I didn't have the skills. I had to drop extension English because I was in the hospital and I was to sick to carry extra units. So yeah, I hated doing those two things but I didn't really have a choice.
