Hey:wave:
My Subjects Are In My Signature--, But I Am Considering Changing Studies Of Religion To Modern History...
Also A Completely Out Of Topic Question Here-- Will Going To A Selective School (Or A Highly Ranked One) Give You An Advantage Over Other Schools (in The Final HSC Marking)??? Because Atm My School Isnt Even In The Top 200!!
If That Makes Any Sense....

Make a new thread for each, if you want your questions answered properly.

Regarding the school - you certainly do have an advantage if you attend a school that's ranked high as your cohort will do well - pulling your mark up

Modern History was really fun - but it's a heavy course - A lot to remember and study. If you enjoy history, you should enjoy mod hist as well.

The Year 11 Preliminary course looks crap compared to the Year 12 one.

I can barely remember what i studied in prelim. The only thing i remember is what i studied in prelim mod as it was better than what i did this year.

We did:
- French Revolution
- Industrial Revolution Lucky we finished that in 20 minutes
- Russian Revolution
- Revolution in Indochina
- Causes of WWI

I'm looking forward to the Germany module and the Conflict in the Pacific one. Might even be more interesting than the Cold War

ugh. suffering existencial crisis- should i or should i not do chemistry next year?:mad1:

to clarify; science was my best subject examwise for the year (97%) and i enjoy chemistry. Its a tossup between geography or chemistry.

 

[Kujah]

If you enjoy it, and have received quite competent marks in Science this year, go for it You can always decide to drop it if you find prefer Geography next year.

If you're planning to go to uni then your HSC subjects won't have that much impact on your choice of career.

yerh dats what i heard from my careers advisor... lol she said "many of the HSC courses don't have many prerequisites"

You're talking about Geo right? During subject selections for senior school, one person in our year of 120 chose GEO. LOL, she was pretty disappointed when she didnt get to do it.

 

[Aplus]

Seriously?

No. Very seriously.
