my school is doing a different pathway so i only have 3 subjects this year for my hsc. we have 2 hours of each subject everyday so it can get annoying. At the moment im hating 2 unit maths, there is way too much to get through and understand and considering that we have our yearlies after the holidays it sucks.

i really enjoy chemistry and business studies this year but.

Favourite: Economics. It is by far the most interesting subject since most of it is completely new.

Least Favourite: Advanced English is pretty dull. Business Studies is as well, it feels like an easier version of Economics.

Yeah we doing whole prelim and hsc course in 1 year for only 3 subjects. I don't know if it is good or not cause i only have 3 subjects to worry about but still :p i'm not sure, it feels a bit rushed especially in maths. it's stuffed and it's a new school in inner west suburb so we will be first cohort to do hsc at the school. Im worried :(. my cohort is really dumb but im like getting much higher results than them, will i get affected significantly by scaling if they don't do well

Physics and chemistry by far are my best subjects.

Worst subject would probably have to be biology.

I find that the better your teacher is, the more likely you'll like a subject more. Everyone agrees?

Absolutely! I reckon my annoying and vague Physics teacher played a huge part in me dropping it for CAFS lol

Also yeah you're getting more out of the subject with a good teacher so generally most people would probably like the subject more.

Eco and Math ADv is favourite
The stuff in eco actually was interesting and stuck to my head, thus didnt need to study too much. Math was a piece of cake

WORST : CHEM AND ENGL.
Harder i tried for chem, i fucked up even more and English- i think everyone knows what i mean by that being the worst

Luckily for me: Y12 is much different :)

I hated Economics but I dropped it.
I like Chemistry and maths, but the teachers aren't excellent, just average.
I used to hate English, but I only like essays and I have a great teacher this year, so English is alright.
Legal - I like the content. Teacher is okay. Just too much content to absorb for the HY exam (ahem, 7 chapters?!)
IT TVET - It's fun. It's a bludge. It's easy. Just don't like the teacher and how we literally barely get any theory and notes.
SLR - Definitely the best subject. One unit, only for one year, not counted for HSC, work that needs to be memorised for the HY exam all uploaded for Edmodo, going to HAHS and having boarders mean we have access to a swimming pool, meaning (almost) every single SLR lesson, we get to swim. But we just do lifesaving things. However, it's a great relaxation subject, no stress, just enjoy yourself, and the 2 teachers (class of 45) are legends. Couldn't have a better subject than that.
