ok perhaps there is a misinterpretation, by difficultly I meant time spent on subject vs scaling vs how hard it is to get the full marks

In english I reckon its easier to get the high marks if ur talented, not study based whereas maths is purely hard work

I agreed! I know I might not have a say in this since i dont do english 4unit, but my friend does. I am doing math4u myself
trust me Math4unit is more time consuming and definitly harder!!!!
Right now my math work dominate over my other subjects, and my friend, who achieves roughly the same mark as me in English is telling me that she got nothing to do in English!!!! well she has nearly finish her eng ex2 "masterpiece", which is approximatly 7000 words and you got the bloody whole year to finish, no wonder she got nothing to do!!!!*mind you, our teacher praise her work sooo much that you'll think she will definitly get a Band6 for it*

4u maths can be so awful sometimes. I don't believe you can just memorise a few formulas and apply them in the exam hoping to ace it. The manipulation of algebra can be a bitch...
English is subjective... yes difficult because you have to be creative blah blah but I think at the end of the day you can still pull off a piece of work that you could still get marks for. Maths however, if you can't show how something is equal to something else then you're set for a *zero*.

She's finished her major work already? Do you know what it is about?

Maths is just a matter of undersatnding and application. A matter of doing problem after problem after problem. I would say much more time consuming, much more boring and much more frustrating.

THUS: I do 4english and 3maths. I struggle in maths, not so in english. So, I am biased.

The answer is truely in the person him/herself.

agreed! i don't do 4u maths but i do 3, (and i do 4u eng), i suppose 4u maths is harder IMHO, but at the same time 4u eng is pretty hard if you don't know what you're doing... (hehe)

or rather, if you're lazy :eek:

i do 2u maths & 4u english- and find that english is easier than maths. but that's because i've always been good at english, and enjoy it, so i find it heaps easier to study etc

but i've never liked maths, find it hard to concentrate and study, so i get crap marks.

so i don't put as much effort into english as in maths, and still get better results.

Look behind you
I could never get maths. I just can't think logically.

I have too good an imagination. Its why I rock at English.

well, i do 4unit english and general maths... so naturally, im gonna say 4unit maths is harder from my perspective... BUT, just as a matter of interest, i think that 2unit English is much harder than 3 or 4 unit English...

Yeah I have a mate doing both. He accelerated Chem last year (got 90 something) and now he's doing Physics, Philosophy and those two subjects. Crazy!
