What do you guys think is the hardest subject for the School Certificate? In my opinion it's Maths because I suck at it.. lol. Also Science, because there seems to be so much stuff to it.

I did the worse in science , 87/100. So yea, science.

maths is all logic
english is reading and remmbering
history is bullshitting
geo is just bullshitting again.

For me from easiest to hard is probably Maths, Computers, Science, English, Geography/History. I really can't see myself getting higher than Maths in my other subjects...

Any tips for doing English? I read the text, but when it comes to doing the questions, I forget the information and have to look back.

The "hardest subject" really depends on the individual strength, weakness, likes and dislikes. It's going to be different to everyone.

I scored lowest in history (mid 80s I think) because I never liked the subject so I didn't pay attention in class.

History and geography. I hate the stupid subjects, even if all you really do is bullshit your way though. :) Second would probably be English.

I'll have to improve my bullshiting skills I guess.

Most likely a matter of opinion, but for me it would either be maths or geography - I dislike maths with a passion, and geography bores me. I think Im right with everything else though.

Depends on the person really. I thought the hardest for mine was English, but it ended up as my second highest subject (97) :D

I find it's better to not read the texts, and just refer to the designated lines for each individual question - Imo saves loads time if you're a slow reader and you can't remember.

For me, easiest to hardest would be:

  1. Computer Skills - All MC, and since I did IST its easy.
  2. English - Doesn't involve class material, just technqiues so (y)
  3. Maths
  4. Science
  5. HSIE - So many extended responses D:

i find maths difficult coz its not just plain logic and formulas. ive seen past papers and they try and trick you by adding parts of info that arent needed and it completely confuses me.

history im hoping will be my good subject since i am interested in the topics and geo being my downfall

I dunno....
for me its going to be His/Geog cause i havent studied, dont know it and really dont care about it...
Maths i care about the most so it'll probably be the hardest but i'll be the most prepared...
