my question:
given the time constraints and that i work very slow, i feel very underprepared for english ext. i feel more confident that i can pull up my english adv mark than my ext because i really haven't done anything since trials for ext (trial mark: 39/50) and i've worked a lot on english adv (trial mark: 80/105)
although i doubt i'll drop it completely, i feel on the border of just dismissing the ext. course and leaving it's preparation till last - whatever time i have left - to give "more time" to my other subjects.

bad idea? how likely do u reckon english ext will count? (unless i really work at it i predict i wont get above 45 ---> probly somewhere 40 - 45 if the Qs are nice) so far it's been a toss up between english ext and maths counting but i feel that i could comfortably get in the low 90s for maths if not higher.

and should i give ext equal priority just "in case" i screw up eng adv.
idnno.

at this stage itll look like your ext english wont count given your superiority of your other subjects. If you think that you can do heaps better in your other subjects plus adv english then by all mean you can leave that to the last minute and use the time to work on your other subjects.

basically if youre confident on doing extremely well in your 10 unit of subjects then ill disregard ext english and just focus on the rest, but thats just me.
