Anyone else change subjects?? (1 Viewer)

[Brontecat]

I was just wondering if anyone else has changed subjects and why they did?

I changed from chem to bio cause i looked at the chemistry book and freaked out and know that i can easily sit the HSC this year and get an awesome mark in bio, something that i rpobs wouldnt achieve with chem.

i'm going to be dropping business studies for ancient history. because business studies is probably the most boringest subject i've ever had to sit through.

My absolute F***!!!! of a teacher makes me want to drop Physics soo much. I know I don't want to deep down because I like the subject and I can go well in it. It's comforting to know that I will have one of my favourite and best teachers for the HSC... which is excellent since nothing from the Preliminary year is tested in the HSC! Woo, except for simple basic things (which if you can't remember there's something wrong).

I will keep Physics knowing that it's only 3 terms of this wanker I have to put up with.

wth.. ur teacher shudnt be telling u to drop a subject.

I know im deffinitely dropping bio sometime this yr but not sure when. I have 14 units now, hate bio and have 0 free periods. So, if i drop i'll have 12 units and 10 free periods in a fortnight.

Just finding the right time to drop haha (after bio camp in a month )

yeah, I've dropped english extension 1 and psychology (both 1 unit subjects) to pick up economics.

funnily enough, I topped english in year 10 at my school, so noone believes that I'm dropping, lol. i just found I didn't really like the course all that much, and also I have been having some significant back problems - sitting in front of a computer typing essays all the time would definitely NOT be beneficial for my health, and although economics does have an essay basis, there are also variou skill related questions that can ease the pressure off me and stop me from having to do essays only.

i'm hoping i've made the right decision.

I'm thinking about changing one of my subjects, probably Religion.

 

[cHoke-meh]

Me. Walked into my Software class, and found it was full of Year 9's. After that class, promptly went to the office and got a change to Modern History. Yay Hitler Time xD

I've changed Ancient to Visual Arts. I'd regretted choosing Ancient over Art ever since I handed in my form last year, but it's still tortured me to change the subjects. I also had troubles with deciding to do Chemistry or not - the only reason I even considered in the first place was because the teacher teaching it on my line is one of my most favourite teachers. Other than that, I've heard the subject is extremely dry. Gah, dilemma.

 

[chichichip]

Art to bio, because lines clashed.

THREE SCIENCES, BEAT THAT! xD

 

[Dragonmaster262]

Legal to Business.

 

[annaisbored]

studies of early childhood to english extension 1. I guess I was a bit apprehensive about taking on the subject ><. Chose it because I'm planning to drop I.T in year 12, and Childhood studies being only one unit (AND TOTALLY WORTHLESS FOR WHAT I WANT TO DO IN THE FUTURE) that lasts for the duration of prelim year so yeahh... If I carried on with this subject, then I'd have to stick with I.T. (lowscalingcrap)
@__@ I JUST HOPE THAT I DO A-OKAY IN ENGLISH X1 SO THAT EVERYTHING GOES TO PLAN...

:rofl:

 

[lyounamu]

Changing subject now sounds little bit hasty. Why not stick around for another week or so? But if you really loathe the subject to the core, well...

 

[Brontecat]

I dropped visual arts for studies of religion 2u.. even though that will be probably worse.

also i dropped biology for geography.

so all up im doing: ancient history, geography, food tech, studies of religion 2u, advance english and general maths..

thats probs a good decision my RE teacher said that SOR II scales rlly highly and is rlly easy - i'm doing it too

 

[Prashant Sallan]

At the start of my prelim.. i changed from economics to engineering studies- and then at the start of my hsc i dropped engineering studies.. lol.

 

[mleiu]

Changed from Business to Modern History.

Reason: I think I'd enjoy the subject more (only chose BS as I assumed I'd do really well in it but realised if I didn't like the subject, its not worth it and I won't do well anyways!), better teacher for Modern than who I got for BS. Oh, better scaling.

Works out well, I'm a lot satisfied with my decision right now. Just hope I won't come back to bite myself in the ass in two years time.

Yes, i changed Biology to Economics.

After walking in for our first biology class.

• I noticed the class size was quite large compared to my other subjects
• the worksheets we received from the teacher were photocopied from " Preliminary Excel Biology"

Also, last year I chose Biology when it clashed with Economics and had been kicking myself in the holidays...wondering OMG what did i do..i have restricted my career options..

But now I'm FREE AGAIN.

And picking up IPT.

advanced english 16
maths extension & mathematics 17
physics 20 (most people picked this subject for the teacher)
chem about 14
economics 8
legal studies 8

and IPT yet to be known

Yess my year group is pretty small...
