haha, i'm especially a fan of the whole 'no exam' bit. It'll be good to have a major work and it's nice to have a subject that is creative and gets itself done early. It's also good not to have another subject that is mathematically inclined!

*pets my lack of maths and sciences*

on the downside doing all humanities mean that there's a shitload of essays to write which i imagine isn't quite the case in maths :p

english advanced
maths
chemistry
pdhpe
italian
ext italian
jap and
ext japanese
which is 14 units altogether i figure if its too much i can always drop the subjects im doing shitest in like maths.
i say do whatever you want to start with, as long as you manage your time well you should be fine. and if your unsure about a subject just do it for a whiel and then always drop it later.
