Urgh I do...

I should have done Advanced English/ 2 unit Religion/ Visual Arts/ Geography/ Legal Studies rather than stupid Advanced english/ Legal/ General Maths/ Modern History (dropped)/ Food Tec/ 2 unit Religion.

Too late, oh the regret...

Yes I do regret my subject choices. I think I would have done better with a set that catered better to my abilities.

Definitely. If I had my time over again I would've done 4U English, 4U Maths, Physics and SOR 1. Music has been fun but I really shouldn't have chosen it for the HSC, I would have got much better marks doing straight desk subjects.

Doesn't matter a lot now, I'll be starting afresh at uni. :)

this. romanticism has killed whatever inkling of enjoyment i got out of reading austen.

i think i wouldve taken a stab at ext maths rather than just dismissing it as i did..and i wish my school ran geography!

regret doing music II. Regret not forging the change of subject form to drop physics and pick up chinese continuers when it was conveniently placed for me; I could have directly dropped physics and picked it up right away :(

Should have done economics or drama instead of music II :/

I regret doing Maths & Chemistry. Should have done senior science and music 1... Oh, and I wish I never bothered for extension history either.

Not really. Initially I had chosen Studies of Religion (II), Ancient History, Society and Culture on top of MX1 and EEX1, but they didn't quite work out for me.

I liked all my subjects surprisingly. =) Wouldn't have chose anything else besides them. Except maybe an addition 2U of Chem.
