Hello,
I don't know whether to do 10 units and spend all my time on those, or have the extra backup for my ATAR, so I need some help choosing what to do next year.
Here are my current subjects and my rank (aprox because it's changed since half yearly report)
2 Unit Advanced English 18th - 22nd
2 Unit Mathematics 3rd - 4th
1 Unit Extension Maths =1st
2 Unit Physics 2nd
2 Unit Ancient History 1st-3rd
2 Unit Business Studies 5th
2 Unit Chemistry 2nd
Possible Extras:
1 Unit Maths Extension 2
1 Unit History Extension
Some of the things I've considered:
1. Drop Chemistry and Business studies, and pick up ext history, 10 units
2. Drop Chemistry, 11 units
3. Drop chemistry and Business studies and pick up ext maths 2, 10 units
4. Drop Chemistry and pickup an ext, 12 units
How differently does History extension scale compared to ext 2 maths? Is the extra scaling worth the extra workload? Is having 10 units with all the free periods etc.. worth having no backup units for my ATAR?
