Anyone regretting any of the subject selections they made, and wishing they could go back in time and change it up?

I picked Chem, Legal, Bio, Ancient, 2u Math, Adv. English

If I had my time over I would've chosen these instead;

3u math, 1u religion, legal, bio, modern, adv. english

Anybody else in the same boat?

Well I wish I had chosen ext. English. I wouldn't have minded taking textiles and German either (but unfortunately the school didn't run either subject for our grade).
However, I've no regrets picking Ancient or Modern History. Good memories.

i would change Engineering studies but i don't know what with. i don't like bio because i hate learning about ecosystems and all that rubbish. don't want to do a language because i failed french in year 7 and 8. not really into computing so that rules out IPT and IT. not into history or geo either. or i might just drop it next term lol:rofl2:

Even though some of my subjects are gay at times, i wouldn't go back and change a thing. Too many good memories made.

i dunno whether i regret maths, still undecided although im one of the higher ones at it in my grade. its so boring though.
i dunno what i would have done instead though. the only thing on that line that seems ok is modern history but apparently its ALOT of work
