That's insane.

The class with the most people in it for me is Chem and that only has about 20 people....
we have 33 in my advanced class. but i have a feeling that number will drop dramatically in the weeks to come..

haha stupid year 11's (i mean this in general)

you think u will get 90+ uai with the subjects you are doing, you do like the 4 easiest subjects the hsc offers

can you even apply for a uai with dance, music and entertainment?
are you an idiot or just ignorant? have you seen the dance outline and whats involved?

umm, just prancing around in a skirt im guessing lol , well whatever you do it is not hard by any means.
Say what you want about HSC dance, id probably agree for the most part, but i do have a lot of respect for people who do hardcore ballet and such, that shit is intense.

Hmmm so my first day. Could it have been any better? I mean, handing in a 7 page english assessment task after coming back from camp yesterday, what a treat!
It was hell. Not only that but as soon as I handed in my assessment, the teacher tells us she wants us to write an intergrated essay when we get home. Fat chance.

food tech has some cred. , its got like a little chemistry (very minute amount) like nutrition, and some business studies (in food product development) in it,

however i dnt consider art, music, entertainment, dance, business services, retail operations as subjects

Im suprised that you don't consider art and music subjects, music especially, why?

I would have to agree with you on all of them, minus music. You actually have to be talented...

Its interesting that you say that about Music and not Art, when your statement essentially applies to both.

ok, music can be excepted as a subject lol, but art is far to abstract, looking at paintings, and doing analysis, a bit like a repeat of what you do in english. and i know some people that do art, do no work and they always brag about getting 80%

If your talking about art critisim and theory, i completly agree. However with the art major work you really do have to work hard or you will be slaughtered, the calibre is so high.

and as can be seen from my subjects i am more of a theorist, very logical subjects, not subjects where you can just write down whatever you like (subjects that involve interpretation)
