Maybe I should have chosen maths like 99% of the other students. That way I can count things faster D:

Also wished I didn't pick music, though I love the theory/history part of it... Not so much the practical since I practically dont know how to play any instrument well >___>;;

I wish I could have chosen:
- Physics (clashed with art)
- Biology (clashed with eng ext)
(- Chemistry)
- Textiles (no students interested = ='' me + 2 others picked this originally but... not enough lol)
- Drama (many students wanted to do this. but too late. yr 11 had already started)
- Hospitality (clashed with eng ext and va)
- Photography (non uai)

Sadly for me, we lack students at our school. Lack of students = less classes because teachers will only create classes for certain other subjects only if there are lots (more than 15) students interested. Oh... the negative side of going to a public school with students who... don't try seriously at school.

You were really unlucky with your subject choices.

^ lol i know :E but how so do you think?

I just chose... different subjects compared to 90% of the other students :E
No business, computing, economics, science, math etc

All creative and language stuffs for me. But then thats also a downside since I feel that those subjects I didn't pick could have benifited me much more.

*shakes fist* damn you school for screwing the lines!

Drama - picked it, but deputies wouldn't allow it, citing 5 people was too small for a class.
Software Design - clashed with Modern History.

You should have. Economics is much better than biology. :D Economics is also much easier.

EDIT: I just had my eco test today. The test was so screwed up, there were soo many mistakes in it, people kept asking about the test, and we had to change answers and questions and stuff. Another sign of my economics teachers incompetence. The test was clearly written last night while the teacher was under the influence of alcohol.

LOL, that is so true. Our head teacher of yr11 economics, also our year advisor, is almost always under the influence of alcohol, it seems... Every time he attempts to write a notice about exams, syllabus, tests, worksheets, you name it, there are so many glaring mistakes in them! And my teacher just sighs and tries to correct the mistakes... or not
