Hi everyone :awesome::awesome::awesome:

How many units are you going to have in year 12?

I heard your atar can take a hit if you don't do well in even 1 assessment task if you take 10 units. Is this true?

Thanks everyone

im doing 12 units, if you have 10 and stuff up one subject it will affect your atar significantly coz your atar is your best 10 units.

If I pick up History Extension then I'll drop Chem and Bio, leaving me with 10 units.
If I don't pick up HistX then I'll have 11 units after dropping Chem.

Anyone else taking History Extension?

11 units. And what's stupid is that I'm taking 4u Eng to reduce potential dmg E.Adv is gonna do to my ATAR. Except one unit of dat has to count fffff

Wished I picked Bio or Society instead of VA.

Can someone please clear up this whole "danger" with taking 11 units? Like it halves your score for ATAR or something? My 1u subject is SOR 1U btw.

Yeah that's what I thought. I'm going to have 10 because there is no point having my weakest subject as a backup lol
