    how many units do you plan to do for the hsc?

    12 units there, as for 4 unit maths - 2 units count as extension 1 and 2 units count as extension 2 - so you get a mark out of 100 for each; this means 2-unit maths (mathematics) does not count in your HSC/UAI.

    Re: how many units do you plan to do for the hsc? I thought history would be a very imporant part of society and culture. Also, I do PDHPE and we did the health promotions which covers a brief history of health priorities in the last 200 years. So that's history too. P.S You make a very...

    To tell you the truth, I am so unsure about what to study post high school that they were all the subjects I have an interest in and considered doing. Oh, I wouldn't pick up all those subjects. The subject timetable lines worked perfectly for the subjects I initially said I'd pick but then I...
