I was just curious as to what subjects you all do (or did) to accompany music in the HSC. It is always interesting to look at the subjects us musos do--they are either really bludgey or really full on.

This year I am doing:
Music 2
Music Ext.
Biology
Geography
Philosophy Distinction course

And last year (as an accelerant) i did:
Adv. English
Ext 1 English
Ext 2 English.

What about you?

Desperately want to do French Continuers and Ext but clearly, that is not an option
Did Accellerated Business in 2003 (year 10) Probably should have read the Chapter on Employment Relations but managed to do ok.

Our school doesn't let us accellerate in Music. The teacher believes you need the added 'maturity' that comes with the extra years of study. I can't believe that learning about key signatures took us 4 weeks.
