maths/english classes for yr 11 (1 Viewer)

[**freakstar87**]

Just curious, how many classes are there for all maths and english subjects in yr 11?
At All Saints senior (school i'm going if failed the selective exam), for english there are 7 standard, 3 advanced and 1 extension classwhile in maths there are i think about 4 general maths, 1 or 2 maths advanced and 1 exension maths.

So yeah probably your schools have a hell lot more students doing advanced english and 2 or 3 unit maths in year 11 when i noticed that alot and i mean ALOT of you are doing these couses.

hurlstone agri and mac fields...90% DO 3U ENGLISH/MATHS COMBO!!!!!!!!!!!! :O
Damn... your school makes my school feel dumb!
I wanted to do 3U maths but the teachers keep recommending me 2 do 2U maths so that's why I'm trying out for those 2 schools. My school literally only has 20 % students doing Maths and Extension maths combined. The rest either do general or no maths at all! Same for advanced english only the rest do standard

theres nothing wrong with doing 3 unit and hacing a go.. u dont lose
mac fields is a bloody hole
there are like prob triple the amount of 2 unit and general maths classes to ext 1 maths classes...

[**freakstar87**]

lucky you
i just thought of activities in general...that's all
wanted to go to sefton but the school doesn't want to offer any friggin places left

 

[kimmeh]

ahahaha sefton is bloody hard to get into...
what year are u in this year? why not one of the sydney schools?
ur a guy? --> sydney tech

seriuosly... what i hate about macfields is that the community and selctive poeple are mixed up ... so.. theres kinda no point in being selective

James Ruse...nah, would fail the first assessment!
By the way i'm a gal (girl) yah!

 

[kimmeh]

ahahhaa well i hope you make it in

i reccomend hurlstone.. but the only crap thing is agrioculture is compulsory for yr 11 and 12 :| but the uai and hsc prospectus is a hell of a lot better than mac fields... we're like in competition ahahahaha

[**freakstar87**]

doing compulsory agriculture course for yr 11 is the only thing i don't like about hurlstone. you mean i can't drop the course at the start of yr 12?

Sefton HS is going down the crapper. Sydney Boys stole our good old principal *stares angrily at SBHS* and our new principal has enforced all these shit rules which have resulted in our school losing most of our customs and what little prestige we had. She is strict and mean, so much to the point that most of the Science faculty has left, and many other good teachers too. The few teachers which remain are either shit or unmotivated. DONT GO THERE!

Seriously.. from most people I've surveyed which is quite a few people.. 90% is probably definately pushing it but 70-80 is a good chance

50-70 somewhere around there
