I think ppl who want to be chefs and cooks would do this subject, also those that want to work in the food industry

Nah, if you want to be a chef, you'd do hospitality as the majority of the course is pracs. At our school, they brought in a professional chef for those doing hospitality. Food technology doesn't have that many pracs...and the course barely relates to food itself, rather the food industry (which you mentioned) and preservation.

really? we had pracs every double lesson. i think food tech has the potential to be really interesting, but my teacher/class was so boring that it made me want to jump out the window.

That sounds really difficult (doing it by correspondence).

Yeah ill chat with ya.

Has anyone had their midcourse for it yet? Ours was 2 hours long, 85 marks and only worth 5%. I think it was the 2003/2004 HSC paper, which i had done online the day before, couldnt remember a thing!!

It would have to be 3. We only did the topics we've done (ie AFI and Nutrition) but the questions on those topics were straight from the HSC

I dod food tech and hospitality, and for part of my food tech assessment for uni- i had my hospitality book out, coz you learn about HACCP and hygeine and safety and stuff- hospitality def. helps for prac skills
and hospitality is great if you wanna be a chef :D or if you wanna graduate from 2 min noodles to Chinese noodles one day...
BUT they do overlap in some areas- and I loved both subjects- esp. food tech!
PS: i love 2 min noodles mmm....
