Hi im currently in the 4th week of my final HSC and dont want to waste any time labouring over a subject that either wont count in the final exams or ill drop in 2 weeks and have wasted two weeks of study periods .
My Question to you is do i drop Economics , keep it and do 6 subjects or do i drop another
Here are my subjects
PDHPE
Business Studies
English Advanced
Maths General
Legal Studies
Economics
As you can see ECO is the best scaling subject which i take note of , and based on the poor scaling my other subjects will incur am worried about dropping it , but its my least favourite , it takes up the most time , requires much more thought and depth of understanding to comprehend and at the end of the day is the hardest of my 6 subjects to perform in
Id like to smash 10 units next year , instead of doing well in 12 but don't no how to do it without risking a lower ATAR due to scaling , under preparing due to wasted energy on a 6th subject , or dropping another subject and bombing in ECO
These were my Year 11 final exam results
PDHPE 71
ENG 68
MATH G 80
ECO 78
BUSINESS STU 83
LEGAL STU 90
*** However i spent 3 days preparing for economics due to wanting to perform against my peers and for my teacher as opposed to 1-2 hours study for each other subject except maths where i did prep alot ****
Based on these facts , my plans on doing business / comm at uni and a goal of acheiving a 88 ++ ATAR , what would you do in my shoes ???
