Advantage for doing Japanese and another lote?

[jayippo]

I heard doing 2 LOTE subjects can gain some additional points.
So, if I do Japanese SL and Korean SL how many additional points would I be able to gain?
Is there any special requirements for this?

I have never heard about these "additional points" apart from the fact that you get to benefit nice scaling from doing LOTEs

are you planning to do 2 LOTEs in year 12?

[jayippo]

I'm doing one in year 11 and then Japanese in year 12.
(What I heard is: VCAA acknowledges that it's hard to do 2 LOTEs so they give some merits to those who do 2.)

There wasn't any exact information about this though :/

As far as I'm aware there are no benefits for doing 2 LOTEs that differ from just doing a single LOTE

There's a bonus +4 markup for each LOTE, the government wanting to encourage communication with foreign nations or some reason, but you don't get anything in addition when you do a 2nd (or 3rd) LOTE as far as I know

A korean girl in my grad year did korean SL in year 11 then Japanese in year 12

(I found it ironic how she did better in Japanese despite Korean being her language spoken at home)

doing 2 LOTEs is definitely possible but dont expect "bonus" points from VCAA aside from the scaling of each LOTE

The scaling is amazing, so yeah it'd definitely be 'bonus' points for you doing both lotes purely because of the massive atar increase you'll be likely to get, provided you score decently in both!
