Hey, i've jus had to decide what we want to drop for next yr and i have no idea. I'm from qld originally and i found this year really hard and didnt go to well in my exams. My dad wants me to repeat but i cant stand the thought of that.

I do Maths adv, eng adv, IPT, Indonesian, Bio and physics
I have no idea what i want to do when i leave school or wether or not i want to go to uni.

Please help, i'm so confused, any advice would be great

Thanks heaps

which one do you hate the most? are bad in? if not, i just say keep it, esp languages, it might be useful.
but thats my opinion

kimmeh · 23 Oct 2003, 10:52 PM

i would agree so too with karma kitten. however, if english is the one ur worst in, then bad luck mate

u have to keep it..

ummm i think physics would be the most chalenging subject of your 6 subs. i do all sciences and i think physics is really hard to understand. at least biology has meaning !

discusss it with ur teachers and ur year advisor.. i'm sure theyre more than happy to help out

good luck and cheers

crazylilmonkee · 23 Oct 2003, 10:55 PM

physics scales well tho
i would say keep it all, and if ur really finding difficulty in it later on, then drop it
my friend dropped a subject right before the trials

kimmeh · 23 Oct 2003, 11:00 PM

hmm i just dont see how physics and biology work withought the link of chemistry..
i mean u can do chem / phys
or chem / bio

they sound right

but phys / bio.. sounds a bit off course.. might as well do chemitry and all threee like meee

i think english is WRONG i bet you if english wasnt a compulsory subject, 90% of english teachers would unemployed..

lol @ freaking_out

Heh, I made that exact same decision a few weeks ago.

I did 2U maths, Adv English, Drama, IPT, Business, and Physics, and due to the fact that Physics is the ONLY subject I've ever failed, I smacked it on the head with a heavy hammer and kissed it goodbye. Free periods rock!

Good luck mate, and remember, languages are some of the best scaled things. So, choose the one you don't like, or do the worst in.

No they would still be employed, they need them for 7-10 English, just that they would only be working part-time.

kimmeh · 25 Oct 2003, 10:04 PM

I know but the english teachers wouldnt be unemployed. Hmm I think its unfair us 2 on to Karma wheres coroneous when you need him.

Don't drop, don't repeat. You only need prelim for "the basics" and you can pick them up again through year 12 anyway. Just try your very best this year and if you really feel you need to shed a subject then kick it.

Seriously, you just need to get into the swing and year 12 comes naturally. Make sure you guys get working on things early though, you'll thank yourselves next July!
