You guys have to do any exams to get into MX2?
Don't think so...I'm not sure if I'll make it in. :(

Here's the situation. School is only letting in 24 students. The accelerated people from our current year (who have done 3 unit HSC) will have first priority. There are about 12 of them wanting to do 4 unit. That leaves about 12 students from non-accelerated classes.

In the half-yearly I came 27/79 for 3 unit, but that includes the accelerated people from the year below us. And some of the people ranked ahead of me are not doing 4 unit, which is good for me, but I seriously don't know if I'll make it in or not...

Haha, no. Everyone told me I should do 2U, and when I ruled that one out they were like "at least do general!" which I was considering. But then it clashed with ancient and my mind was made.
Jachie, I rarely see anyone from a selective school not do maths. LOL. Thats why I was surprised.

But if the career you wanted doesn't need it, then great. :D

Haha, no. Everyone told me I should do MX2, and when I ruled that one out they were like "at least try" which I was considering. But then I realised the time and dedication required and my mind was made.

Yeah mate, I'm dropping SDD although im' really interested in it, but my teacher is such a dropkick that it just goes beyond clear logic to continue if the WHOLE course is self-taught.

Philosophy was a fill-in unit for my school.

I dont think we need to do an exam to get into 4 unit, but if we're deemed to be unable to do it, then the teachers will discourage us to do so.

Damn, 3 extensions! Wish I did Modern this year because I did great at it in Yr 9 and 10, and because I could pick up history extension and do 15 units. Also wished I did do the Engineering TVET course taking it to 17 (my friend is getting 100% in every test). :)

You guys are fucking nuts, I have a hard enough time justifying doing an extra 2 units which won't be counted.
