Is anyone doing it?

How do you find it?

If you don't know what english studies its a english course based around day to day english instead of Standard and Advanced English..
You can't get a ATAR tho
Its a easier course.
Its 2 units
You don't get the 2x2hr exams

I want to do computer science in Uni, i can do tafe and get a dipoma later.

Should i do it?
Why shouldn't i?

If you have very bad english skills then do it, but first attempt ESL and see how that goes

Btw, better to do advance than standard, everyone who dropped (formt he people I know) find no difference in standard, workload still same and everything.

So it can't count towards an ATAR.

But you know you still need to count 2 Units of English to get an ATAR, right?

No ATAR for you then :(
