Hi everyone,

I was just wondering how many units you are doing for your HSC, and why you have chosen to do that amount. Would you do 11 units?

I'm considering dropping down to 11 from 12. I'd like to drop economics and elect history extension, but I am not too sure yet. I don't really want to do two major works, and 11 units only provides limited insurance really. However, I am not enjoying economics too much. Also, extension history has a fantastic teacher this year. But I will miss eco if it goes. What do you think?

srsly im doing 12 just for the sake of safety net as well as bonus marks for uni applications. You should drop whatever u are bad at coz it will be a waste of time, keep 11 units

Go with your gut instinct here. If you don't want to do economics, go ahead and drop it. 11 is a great # of units.

You can't do 11 unless you're capable of doing extension, which is kind of hard.

Thanks Adrita for your responses.

Why do you recommend 11 units? What does it really serve you?

Also, why did you enjoy HIX?
