Biology. I only picked it because it was the best out of the possibilities on that subject line.

Bad mistake.

Legal Studies - Would have been a lot easier if the teacher taught us using the syllabus and and didn't expect us to learn the entire syllabus on our own while marking. Oh god, he was boring boring boring boring. Last year our school actually won the highest result in Legal Studies, WHY THE FUCK did we get a different teacher than them? Why... *single tear*

General Maths - This would have been easy and enjoyable had my teacher knew how to teach it well. Over 30 years on the job, and this is all you could muster? Happy fucking retirement! I really didn't need this subject at all. I should have done something interesting... like history.

Senior Science - HAHAHAHA! This is so easy it's not even funny. Our teacher rocked - but then she got knocked up and we were left with this whiney child who didn't know what she was doing. She screwed up her marking of us through her biased dislikement. Should have stacked English ext instead.

In terms of work proportional to the mark you get at the end - Drama was a huuuge bummer. I put more hours into Drama this year than any other subject and STILL it's gonna scale me to the shit. No justice for us people who follow our passions rather than conform to more 'intellectual' courses - and in reflection, perhaps I would have been better off simply falling into line with everyone else...

i agree with you i took my passion into the field of computers just to find it gets scaled down, me being reliable on this subject was expecting a good mark and using it to sustain a decent UAI but because it scales down coz its not an intellectual course im screwed.

would have to be business studies for me.
the subject bores my brains ot - mainlystale teacher and subject matter.
i would die if i had to witness another crappy social science video again.
5 topics in 4 terms is also kind of tedious but oh well - it'll be over soon

i chose Distance Ed Visual art in my prelim year and soooo shoulda done health which was on the same line, but i am not too hot on PE so i didnt pick it but now i wish i had cos it would be so much more usefull, seeing as i dropped DE Art at the start of the HSC after i went insane trying to do works in prelim anyway. i also shoulda either picked DnT over Chemistry or dropped chem if i had Health cos i still dont get it and the exam is on in just over a week, and i hate the teacher, he's such a bogan. but hindsight is such a wonderful thing. though me and my freind realise that with chem nothing else seems too bad, i actually like bio and maths an would do 6 hours study for either of them over 10 minutes in a room with our chem teacher!!! God Damn it!

Dropped French Beginners and Photography (stupid choice in the first place, not a UAI subject) to take up English ext 2 and History Ext.
Call me a freak but I'm doing absurdly better in both than I ever did in French, but then again i tried failing ze french exam to no avail, getting 70% :| bah..

I know I've already said this before, but Ancient History is a mistake of a subject. It must be banished to the abyss from which it spawned. Oh, and English Extension 1 for crime fiction, that needs to die a slow and miserable death for the fact it is more postmodern than Postmodernism...

Advanced needs to learn how to make students stop yawning when they breeze through AOS papers and write off napkin-notes in Modules...

And last but not least, Information Technology VET needs a serious revamping, so that future students don't have to do 10 marker questions on what is wrong with the formatting of the BOS Syllabus Revision 2001 extract. If it weren't such a highly marking question, I'dve said a lot more than Bold, Italics, Underline, Watermark and Left Alignment. :p

English Standard. I bet there are a lot of people who are/were in the same position as me!
OMFG and I regret going to my stupid school. The English teachers are so crap as well as so bloody lazy and most don't know anything so they make themselves look good by marking super hard on everyone and persuading everyone to do standard so they won't have to exert any effort in teaching. They also bloody exaggerate how hard advanced is, when it is actually them who can't teach it properly since they're so crap. Also, for the record, the dumb Head Teacher forgot the name of the course that helps in basic skills of English which was Fundamentals of English! Sheessh talk about lack of professionalism! The only thing truly keeping this school alive is Maths.
Yes, I regret (so very badly) doing stupid Standard English.... argh.... bah
Oh well.....

I know, I used to like chem. But I absolutely hate it now, and I am very behind and so scared for the exam. Especially since its in the middle of my worst week.
I think in the end I just regret not working harder and keeping up, and getting more tutors maybe, so I would be ok no. Like Ancient, I like it I just didnt keep up with notes.
