My maths problem.... (To drop or not to drop?) (1 Viewer)

[doug003]

Ok so I'd like some of you who have a good grasp on the BOS year 11-12 system to answer...
Well I'm not particularly liking Maths Adv. and its crossed my mind a few times to drop it completely. Today I had a test worth 15% but i was absent cause im sick, my mum talked to my teacher (who happens to be the head of maths) and he wasen't negotiable and is giving me a 0. So tomorrow when i go to school I'm more then likely going to drop maths all together as I am doing 12 units and you only need 10 yes??
So what I'm really asking you guys is can i 'legally' have 10 units in year 11?
and will not doing any form of maths effect my chances of getting into University particularly if i want to do a degree in the way of commerce/business/economics?
also when I am in uni will i struggle on the maths side if I haven't done maths in yr11-12?

Thankyou for reading and I hope you can answer my questions

Doug003.

You HAVE TO do at least 12 units in year 12, so NO you won't be able to drop maths. As well as that, as per my knowledge, commerce and economics have some portion of maths where at least 2 unit maths is necessary.

If your sick, bring a doctor's certificate. I don't think they're allowed to give you 0 if you have a legit reason. Otherwise, complain to the BOS...

Commerce/Business/Economics usually requires you to have done at least 2 unit (advanced) mathematics....

If you REALLY hate mathematics and cannot handle it, you might want to drop it and just do a bridging course into your desired course....

You cannot have 10 units in Year 11, 12 is the minimum...

IF it is possible, try to change mathematics to another subject but the chances of that being able to go through is like 5%....

Also, it's only 15% in preliminaries, HSC Year 12 is all that counts.

It's 10 units in year 12 and 12 units in your preliminary year.

Everything resets in Year 12 so relax. It gets easier as time progresses.

awkward, sorry for misguiding you, i accidentally typed year 12.

 

[girlworld_club]

if you are genuinely good at maths, you shouldn't let a zero deter you. Don't drop a subject just because of one lousy teacher.

 

[talisman]

the zero might seem like something but it really isn't. it's only your prelim year. it's next year that really counts. i would recommend to keep doing it. prelim maths is your year to work stuff out even if you don't feel too confident in the beginning. i would say stick to it! as has been mentioned above, i'm pretty sure you're not allowed to have 10 units in Year 11.

Your teacher sounds like a fuckwit

I know thats pretty rude but what he is doing is uncalled for

 

[delian]

yeah our school made us do at least 12 units in yr11. Remember prelim doesn't count to your atar

I was 10-15 minutes late to a commerce exam and my excuse that on the way, there was a line of police stopping everyone and asking them random questions about the car, was rejected and I got a zero. Today, I am doing two commerce subjects and enjoy them over any of my other subjects; go figure. If you're a capable maths student then just focus on what's ahead. I have to admit though, such a gay teacher

If u're sick, just fill in an illness/misadventure form, you can do the test later. You should be able to go to the principle and complain, they should not give you a 0 =.="
P.S Maths is just too good to drop
