It's very ironic how you love chemistry and that you didn't pick it in the first place.... very weird..

Totes possible, I slacked off most of the year and crammed a week before each assessment and still ended up with a 96% assessment mark.

I said it was possible, I personally found Year 11 Chemistry really easy however others may have different experiences.

It's different for everyone. I think you should do Chem because it opens up so many more career opportunities and it sounds like you want to do it more than drama.

If I were you, i'd ask a friend if they could lend me their excercise book to see what they've done. Then i'd go through it and see if i'd be able to catch up and see if i'm interested in the content. If I liked it, I'd swap subjects :p
I do chem now and we've barely done anything worthwhile. It's all pretty easy so far...

Good advise, exactly what I did.


I was going to switch to Chemistry, but thank you lady luck. I was unable to find the head teacher so he could sign me out of IPT. I ended up somewhat finding IPT a fun subject. Think this through carefully.

I once had a hooker in my crawl space...I find the RAID bug spray works best...but you need about 6 cans...the blue ones are the best too, low odour.

I personally would choose chemistry, in the beginning of prelim your probably starting off with the chemical earth which is seriously not that hard to catch up on.

Are you allowed to change this far into prelim? My school has a cut off date before it sends your courses to BOS and cuts off so you get the least number of indicative hours. (My school's cut off was late Feb).

Anyways, do you think you'd find yourself too science bogged by doing three? Because if you love drama you should do it, irrespective of scaling.
