Yes, Economics and Physics were on the same line and I'm doing distance ed (Dubbo School of Distance Ed) Economics atm. Though you might be a bit too late to start doing something like that now. I had to really push my school to let me do it though.

here is a list of some of the distance education centres for NSW
Distance Education Centres (definitely recommend looking at this website as it has a downloadable pdf on everything you should know about de)
From my knowledge there are only 8 in total that offer this service in NSW

if your too lazy to look here are some direct links:
1. main page
2. Karabar
3. Open High School (i'm pretty sure they only do languages)
4. Sydney Distance Education High School - Website Home
5. http://www.dubbo.dec.education.nsw.gov.au/

i'd try to get in touch with which ever one you want asap, i do recommend karabar though, like i said before, the teachers teach at a 'real' school as well so they have realistic expetations. Plus i know that they do take latecomers (i started in wk 5 or 6).
Sorri if ive said this to you before but hope it helps. :)

It depends on where you live and that will specify which DE school you can get into. Eg: I live in rural NSW so I got into Dubbo School of Distance Ed. They actually have students at the school as well and my teacher is pretty good.
