No regrets really

But a lot of people I know wished they did my subjects of Modern History and Geography rather than Chem/Bio and Physics respectively.

I definitely regret picking Music 1. Worst choice I ever made. Should've done Biology instead. Also, not picking up 4u Maths is a big regret.

I completely and utterly am destroying myself emotionally thinking how absolutely stupid I was to go with physics and chemistry RATHER THAN polish continuers and drama.

Physics and chem.... so fucking boring now... and the BLOODY ROTE LEARNING ASPECT OF IT! SO ANNOYING!

I would turn back time if I could, and NOT do physics and chemistry. My biggest regret so far.

LIfe would be so cool if I had Eng Adv, Polish Cont, Drama, 3u Maths, 4u Maths

LIFE SUCKS

should have:

done physics instead of business
maths instead of cafs.

didn't feel like the stress of maths in the hsc but I kinda miss it.

I regret wasting my time in Physics at all which is why I finally dropped it.
I learnt more Physics from youtube than I did from this horrible HSC course.

Main reason I dropped it is due to marks though :p

society and culture!!!! doing the pip is the worst thing for someone like me with incredibly poor time management skills. Plus the class work is no where near as interesting as prelim

Worst subject ever is Engineering Studies. Fuckload of content to cover in a short amount of time, not to mention the scaling and the probability of getting a good teacher for this subject is very low.
Should have done something like biology or economics instead.
I strongly advise future students not to go anywhere near this subject.

Should have dropped Chemistry instead of Biology.
Should have chosen Modern History instead of Chinese heritage.
So many bad decisions.
