What regrets do you have about your current subject selection?

Go.


Open to non-2013ers too of course

Not a 2013er but in retrospect i should have tried to stick to 3u maths and do IPT through tafe or correspondence (only SDD ran) rather than chemistry.

I should have forged the form to drop prelim physics in place for Chinese continuers (woulda aced it so hard srsly), then I should have kept modern history instead of dropping it. That way I could have dropped music II (worst sub ever) =_=

Then it woulda been around a 97-98 ATAR for me.

I'd probably replace extension 1 English with Ancinet history.

- Somewhat regret dropping Extension 1 English to pick up MX2. Have yet to see...

- Maybe picking Physics instead of Chemistry???

I'm happy I went with the Business Studies + Economics combo rather than the typical Phys + Chem combo. Mainly because my strengths truly lie in social science.

Should've done extension English when the coordinator offered it.
Should've not dropped to standard from advanced.
Should've gone to a school that ran drama.
Should've tried.
Should've done biology in semester one instead of physics.
Should've done MedSc at UNSW.

My life is full of bad decisions.

I should have dropped bio because I hated it so much and couldn't stand studying it. I should have kept extension 1 maths because I had no idea that it scaled that well and it wasn't as difficult as I made it out to be.

I regret picking physics, dread it so damn much.

Should've picked bio over it.

I regret picking physics, even though I landed a B6. (Though it might help me get into TSP at USYD [hopefully])

Should have done Chinese Continuers and Extension through open high. Or French Continuers.

Should have kept Jap Ext!!

Shouldn't have picked Ancient. Hopefully I can change to Economics when the term starts.

LOL,
shouldn't have wasted my time with 4u maths. Did it for like 2 terms and dropped it.
Done eco instead of PE , PE scaling dropped my atar and im doing commerce so that would have helped.

I didn't really like Physics. But I didn't really like anything else either. I chose my subjects by elimination rather than by what I ACTUALLY wanted to do.
