Subject Selection Advice Needed (1 Viewer)

[RivalryofTroll]

Recently, I was originally planning to do only Advanced English and Ext 1 Maths + SOR 1 but today, my teacher recommended that I undertake the Extension 1 English course because I am a strong candidate for it. (There will only be 1 Eng Ext 1 class - 20 students maximum). I am considering to do it BUT:
The main problems that come into the factors of decision include:
-Will I be able to handle two extension courses workload with my poor study habits?
-Is it critical that you read ALOT to be able to perform well, according to my teacher but I rarely/never read novels or most books for the fact.
- Is it actually going to be too hard for me?

My possible subject selection line-up:
Ext 1 Maths ----------------------------------------Ext 1 Maths
Studies of Religion 1 ----------------------VS--------------Ext 1 English
Advanced English
Economics
Physics
Legal Studies vs Chemistry

I also need help picking my last subject!
I am considering either Legal Studies or Chemistry but I don't know which one to choose! I kind of like them equally...
(I thought that Legal Studies might be beneficial for me in UNI as I plan to possibly undertake a commerce course in UNI. Other possible pathways for me are an engineering course or architectural studies)
So, Legal Studies vs Chemistry - Can anyone provide cons and/or pros for both? (E.g. difference in workload, competition involved or what can indicate that I'd do better in a certain one)

Will Legal Studies have any correlations with Economics in any way?
All appropriate advice will be appreciated.

If you want to do commerce, I've been told that business studies is a really good foundation. Its also the easiest subject ever and the workload and study is literally nothing except memorising the terms of the syllabus (comes to around 4 a4 pages) and then its just a lot of common sense and making up stuff that sounds intellligent (easy if you're good at english)

And english extension, basically did nothing in year11 except I think one essay and one performance/speech, I think its up to your scchool. And then year12 you spend your entire year preparing for 1 essay and 1 story. And nothing else.
