I'm guessing:

u need at least 2U Maths; math ext1 would be useful

doing Economics would be preferable to physics

Business Studies & IPT would not hurt

Improving yr English would help you tremendously as there is a lot of written communicaton involved in Accounting.

You should not choose IPT unless you are interested in the subject.

Do Ext.1 Math. :D
Try to study NOW instead of worrying. You'll have all these extra time to study! =)

I suggest you drop IPT and do economics if possible unless you love IPT

+1 for both comments

try to find something to read if you have time, or even take out any of you're textbooks, check out any words that you don't understand, and try to remember them as much as possible. (to increase you're vocab!)

Hope that helps :spin:
Good luck with you're studies!

I'm gunna take the other side here and say do whatever you want, whatever you will personally find interesting enough to stick with.
These days universities, especially in areas like accounting, get a million people a day coming up to them with their HSC full of business studies, economics, whatever. A science subject demonstrates systematic thinking, and original thought more than a subject like economics. That's what'd be preferable to them.

Ext maths is an exception to this I feel because it's so valuable in terms of proving you're intelligence as a starting point. I'd go as far as to say that as long as you're doing ext. 1 maths (and improve your english, but that's not about studying, that's about having conversations with people as much as possible at ESL level), they will value that fact that you do what your interested in and are able to excel at that more than eco's or business studies.
