12 Units for yr 12? or just 10? (1 Viewer)

[Over97]

Hey everyone, this is my first post, and im hoping it wont be the last.

I have 12 units at the moment, and im not to sure should I keep it for year 12.

Is it a good idea to drop a subject?

if i drop and have 10 units, i might fall back on one and go bad in HSC,

but

if i keep 12, i have room to fall back, but i have to concentrate all time on that xtra subject.

any advice will be most appreciated.

thanks pplz

go for 12
10 may mean free time for "study" but it may also mean more bludging

at least with 12 u always get fed with a "healthy workload"

even 13 wont kill you

it depends on how confident you are in your best ten units really. Its always advised being safe with 12 but its up to u.

Im going to do 11, best of both worlds...

12 is fine
if u can handle it now i don't c y u can't handle it later
juss put a lil more effort into it
i'm doing 12 next yr

10 if u know how to concentrate ur chi into one intense laser beam. otherwise if u cant do that, 12.

i recommend 10. if u bludge ur free time thats ur fault. but if u use the time to study, its like a +++
also, doing 12, u got that state of mind where u think u have room to stuff up. if u think like that, ull prolly stuff up beyond ur 2 unit buffer

i'm doing 10 , and i am not a bludger !

 

[:: ck ::]

doing 12 because i feel its not too much work for me even though im doing extension 2 maths which is gunna take up 2-3 hrs at least per night

i'm going to do 12..its best.. i dont see a point in doing 11 *sorry tenille* esp if its like a 1 unit subject like religion *shudders*
eehehe but yeah 10 is a bit risky.. but if youre really confident in those subjects then i think its the best option..

 

[iambored]

keep 12. it's a LOt less stressful if u find that u are not doing as well as u hoped in a subject!

i was just readin in another thread that sumoen was doing 14 units prelim and hsc..like thats hectic ! i think i'll struggle with 12 but i'll manage.. 14? no damn way... *runs away petrified*

i did 10, now im in the shitter cos im failing some of my units
do 12.. and learn how to study... dont leave it till its too late

I did 13, now i'm also in the shitter because I do 14.

Although failing 2-3 subjects isn't too bad for me, because they won't be included anyway.

As babydoll has said, time management is critical!
know how to manage your schedule,
read ahead (always read ahead)
and expect, the unexpected (*cue spooky music*)

omg huy.. u do 14?
fuck thats hectic..! what subs you do and what are u aiming for?

 

[Huy]

Yeah, but I'm not in Year 11.
I did 13 in Year 11.
14 in Year 12 (presently).

4 Eng, 4 Math, 2 Phy, 2 Chem, 2 IPT, 1 SOR.

Aiming for 95+ (minimum for Med)
And of course, hoping to 'pass' UMAT (in comparison to others)

Realistically,
94-95, bare minimum 90+
"Possibly" 96-97, but we will have to wait and see, I would be aiming for 98.05 (Optometry) but I'm just glad to be over the 90 mark.

I would be stoked with 96.00 though, (69 doesn't sound too bad LOL )
