As we all know, Physics and Software are on the same day for the HSC. Obviously those who do both Physics and Software are disadvantaged when compared to those who do just solely one of the two subjects. I'm just wondering, how many of you are on the same boat like me, doing both Software AND Physics

Nope, just Software. Plus I can't do Physics at my school. It runs on the same line as Software. And there's only 1 class for both. lol

To me I would focus on Physics more since there are more people to compete (around 9000) as opposed to Software, where it only has 3000 candidates

Plus Physics is more enjoyable to study than Software haha

problem with software+physics is that physics nearly always gets priority over sdd, since (in the past) it scaled better and thus counts for more. our ex-best sdd student is going to revise sdd during the 1hr or so break in between.. *sigh*

and also its a bit of a logical extension to do phys + software combo.. should have lined up something random like a humanity + software. oh well..

its times like these that I wish I tried to accelerate sdd :p
