I've chosen subjects that are somewhat off the beaten track. At least i think. Just wondering what other people chose because i go to a very small school and our choices were very limited.

I do: 4 unit english, Advanced maths, Geography, French and Music.

I envy you...

this however is somewhat of a lie because i chose senior science as one of my preference and they cancelled it because there wasn't enough people :(
same happened to my french beginners class... there was 5 of us. they cancelled it even though one of our computery classes only has 2 students.

of course english is the subject most students sit for,

but barring any level of english and maths given that they are compulsory in most schools, i'd say that the most popular chosen subject is business studies

Hurlstone. So yes. I'd imagine so, although I'm sure there are quite a few accelerants.

Our's would've been English Standard followed by Business Stuides and SOR1, which is compulsory at my school. Can't remember the number in the rest of the subjects, although 2 unit maths has a rather large group this year in our school.
