Title: VET or 3/4 in Year 11?
Post by: VCVelaga on August 22, 2013, 10:19:30 am
Should I do VET: Allied Health or a 3/4 subject in Year 11?
Pros and Cons of doing either?

To my understanding, VET Allied Health doesn't have a scored assessment so it can only be counted towards your ATAR as a 5th or 6th increment. Maybe if you're contemplating doing a 3/4 in year 11, you could look at health and human development? I know they're not exactly the same, but if you like health enough, then you would enjoy either.

The reason I didn't choose VET Allied Health and I chose HHD instead was purely because of the scored assessment (or more like lack of).

I'm actually tossing up between HHD and V:AH! Pros and Cons? I could do well in HHD as it'll be my only 3/4 next year but the VET seems decent.
