Yes, there are. Everyone in James Ruse MUST do adv eng, and I'm pretty sure 80% of them hate it, as do I. stupid adv eng.

Doubtful on the 80%, considering 150/166 take 3U English. Agreed many will drop to 2U next year to take 4U Maths but still, I doubt it's 80%.

I love extension, but Advanced is pretty much my most hated subject, almost equal with chemistry, haha. I wish English wasn't compulsory, and that you could do extension without having to touch the advanced course.

I love English. As previously posted, it is my most successfully oriented subject, as can be evidenced by my success and natural flourish in this arena.

Lies. (Much) more people take Chemistry than 3U English. Good for the scaling, though (3U english).
If decent teacher, can make the course enjoyable.
Doesn't hide the fact that it's a literature analysis course, really.

Love English Adv
Hate English Ext 1
Like English Ext 2

I think..it really depends on your teacher and the texts you do.

Yeah, I agree.

Actually, no I don't think I 'love' advanced..but I do hate eng Ext 1....... a lot
