That's interesting but what's the purpose of this information?

 

[Dennis1348]

mhmmm how accurate is this?

 

[Green Yoda]

whats the source?

 

[braintic]

Source is the HSC stats published each year.

I would have thought it was obvious that the purpose was to see how the subjects compare in terms of the quality of candidature.

I only included subjects with 2000+ candidates. It wasn't meant to be comprehensive.

Why is it that everyone's first reaction is always to search for negatives?

Sorry, I took your LOL as sarcasm.
But my reply was also directed at the previous posters whose only response was to question the purpose and accuracy of the information.

While plenty of people do a language (and get high ATARS) not many people do any one PARTICULAR language.

Other subjects which didn't have the numbers:
