If you do choose, Advanced Eng. 3 Unit Maths, Chem, Bio & Phys. Beware that's a very heavy workload, and may be tough if you arn't extremely confident with some of the subjects.
I would never do all those sciences because:
  1. I don't like science in general.
  2. I am more of a English-Mathematics person.
  3. I cannot handle the workload
  4. I do not need science in future.

And yeah, you are right. That's A LOT of work.

Agreed. My school formed cut-offs for each subject. For example, the English class placement was determined by SC result.
Sc results? serious?
gah. My school uses the half yearlies.
So if you screw the half yearlies up .. then yeah . .O___O you're pretty much doomed i guess?

it depends on the school ur applying for.

i think you should call them and ask them if they have a cutoff for the subjects ur thinking about doing.

my old school just asked us what we wanted to do for prelim o_O

i got 69% in science
and 62% in english

the rest is 87-95

english is seriously hard but i dunno why im still considering taking advanced

the people who are to leave are decided at the end of each year. As for me, hopefully I am not being told to leave.

I'm going alright but economics has an unexpectedly high amount of workload likewise with Physics, chemistry and maths. The workload in English is moderate. But SOR is the biggest bludge ever.
