I'm thinking of dropping either Biology or Physics to pick up 4U maths. 10 units for me is risky so if I pick up 4U maths and drop either physics or biology, I'll have 12 units :uhhuh: Much safer. But if I can't handle the workload, I'll drop both biology and physics, and work extremely hard for my 10 units.

It's too early to say, but judging my the mid course exam, my current worst subjects are Business Studies and Chinese >.<" Haven't got ranks for Business Studies yet, but I think it's low...

Does extension 2 count as actual 4 units because I thought your 2U for mathematics doesn't count in HSC?

I thought it does count for 4 units...Anyone correct me? I'm pretty sure it counts for 4 units, or is it 1 unit each for extension and extension 2, equalling to 2 units? -.-

Well, I was thinking of dropping Chemistry. But in the last exam, I came first. I don't feel like dropping now... (damn! my mind changes so frequently!!!:p )

I don't know at this stage. I feel the need to drop something to make some room for Cosmology. Otherwise, I will have 15-16 units of work next year! (can I handle it? I might :uhhuh: )

Ext 2 Math (4 Units) = Ext 1 (2 Units) + Ext 2 (2 Units)

Im not certain I want to drop any subjects at all, although because Im doing an extra one I know it will be discluded at the end of year 12 anyway. So, if I do drop any subject, it will be either: Art, Maths, or Business Studies

I want to extend all of my extendable subjects and keep the others as well but that's just impossible :(

I'm dropping Legal Studies, it's scaled badly :(
Um. I don't think so. It is scaled better than subjects like Business Studies, Biology and Engineering Studies. Its scaling is quite decent.
