omfg i waste way too much time thinking about this.

now; if choosing i would do
- adv eng
- gen maths
- MODERN<<<<<<<<<<<<< (maybe even ancient)
- history ext,
- undecided re: drama...
- legal?
- and maybe even 1 unit of religion as a backup.

- physics just cos it seems so damn cool but i would severely suck at it plus my school doesn't offer it anyway.

would change about half i guess.
and society and culture sounds good though i know nothing about it

I wish I did an accelerated subject, would make the workload considerably easier.

I wish I did Acc Mod instead of Acc Business in Year 10. I've since dropped Business. :(

I did a whole year of Prelim IPT in yr 10 and a term of year 12 IPT in year 11, only to drop it at the end cos I wanted free periods! Biggest regret. Ever.

Another regret is dropping to standard from advanced. I should've just stayed since my ranks are similar!

Had I knew such a big workload was involved with Modern, I would not have chosen it at all. :(

English Standard
Modern History
General Math
Biology
Studies Of Religion II
Hospitality.

I'm doing pretty good in all of them. But because i'm the only one in a few of my subjects and my school is extremely small, i don't know how i'm going compared to the rest of the state.

lol. Good sub's. Don't worry, if you work hard, the rest of the state won't affect you that much. Good luck =]

yeh i wish i had've taken my subject selection more seriously with my future in mind.
i so badly wanted to get out of community and family i tossed a coin between earth and environmental and bio.

i ended up with earth,but bio wouldve been much better for me.
plus because i chose sport rec i couldnt drop anything(apart from sport rec itself)

grr.

i also really wanted to choose japanese because it was so easy but i wouldve had to do it distance ed and i never got around to organising it.
damn my lazyness. :)
