what did you choose? in the end it's up to you- everyone has their own interests and trust me if you work hard in subjects you like you can get a great atar, regardless of what those subjects are.
Thanks. I have currently decided upon:
if you like humanities, stick with those- play to your strengths. physics scales better than most other subjects but scaling DOES NOT matter if you're gonna get 50%. it won't turn a 50% into a band 6. instead it's better for you to do as well as you can in the subjects you chose- I've seen people get 97-99 atars w only humanities subjects cus they chose what they're good at. keep in mind though- all the subjects you chose are pretty content heavy and there's a lot of essay writing. this isn't really a problem for me personally but I know a lot of people take issue w the note writing and memorisation- I feel like this applies to every subject either way though haha.
The head of english said I shouldn't do english ext because I would get bored and I partially agree. By doing english ext that make me do 14 units and I think that's to much. My principals said I should drop business studies because as you said it overlaps a lot with economics and it would just be to much commerce but I like commerce a lot and I think all of these subjects would intertwine well.
yeah 14 units is a lot. personally what I did was I picked up maths and english ext 1 both for a few weeks of year 11 to see which one suited me, then I dropped maths ext. and you could always drop business after a few weeks and pick up religion (I'm not sure if the rules surrounding picking up/dropping subjects have changed since then) if you found it too similar to eco. I'm sure what you picked is the right choice for you!! best of luck w your studies, don't stress about this too much, just try your hardest in whatever subjects you end up with. good luck w your studies
Thanks I think that is a good idea. I should test out both english ext to see if I like the subject. In terms of religion though I don't really want to choose the subject and it's more my principal advising me because they say that all the best performing students take 11-12 units but I think I should go with what I feel is right.yeah 14 units is a lot. personally what I did was I picked up maths and english ext 1 both for a few weeks of year 11 to see which one suited me, then I dropped maths ext. and you could always drop business after a few weeks and pick up religion (I'm not sure if the rules surrounding picking up/dropping subjects have changed since then) if you found it too similar to eco.

btw if you're going to try out both- the workload might be a lot. I only kept both for about 5 weeks of yr 11. if you end up dropping maths ext 1 you'll have a bit of catching up to do for advanced maths- don't get discouraged if your scores drop a bit for the first term or so- it happens to a lot of people!!
Shit
+ don't study now study during the holidays and celebrate grad.i feel that but i think about english being in less than 5 weeks and its painShit
