Is anyone else doing the "ScienceExperience" thing at Monash these summer holidays, or anywhere for that matter?

How are you all finding Year 11 thus far? Are you doing 3/4s?

How are you all finding Year 11 thus far? Are you doing 3/4s?

Its definitely a huge jump from year 10. I actually haven't had a day so far where I have had no homework hahah. I am happy with all my subjects especially physics!! The 3/4s I'm doing aren't bad, its just year 11 spesh that's killing me right now. Biology is super interesting (unlike last year) atm and i'm loving it buts its a lot of work :/

I'm doing 2 3&4 and  i agree that the workload is a huge jump between  year 10. So far i'm surviving but it getting difficult.

Yeah? What sort of homework do you have?

That's great about your subject choices. What are you studying?

Yeah, Year 10 practically into Year 12 (for those two subjects) can be an interesting transition, but absolutely worth it in the long-run. It's a fantastic experience in preparation for next year. Which 3/4s are you studying?

P.S. And in response to both of you, don't worry: ATAR Notes has your back.

I totally forgot this thread existed. Thanks for reviving it!
And congrats on admin you deserve it!!

Year 11 is pretty great. Aside from the academics, I feel quite sad that it's the second last year of school. Everything seems so fleeting and i just want to have fun while I'm still here in my hometown with my childhood friends.
No 3/4s for me this year. The only ATAR-contributing subject I'm doing is UMEP.

Nice choices! Are they, like, conventional 3/4s to do in Year 11 at your school, or were you just interested in those subjects?

No problem! I thought it was about time this thread had some activity again, haha. And thanks very much!

What do you mean by fleeting, exactly? Like, coming to an end very quickly?

And really cool! Do you think you've learnt a lot from doing 3/4s previously? (Am I reading correctly? Did you do a 3/4 in Year 9?)

Lol, i'm doing physics, chem, bio 3/4, methods, spesh, english and maybe a language through vsl...unsure about it now. I have till our first SAC to decide.

I was interested in health and further was the best option as it was another 3&4 I could do in year 11

A quick Google search tells me that VSL is the Victorain School of Languages, but I've not heard of it before. How does that work, exactly? Which language?

Yeah, nice! How good is HHD? What's the plan for next year?

Yes, that's what I meant. Having a Google it looks like fleeting is used mostly like "a fleeting [something]" rather than using it like I did... whoops haha

Yeah I think I did mainly coping with stress, task management and some nice sentiments hahah
Yes, I did unit 2 in Year 8 so 3/4 followed shortly after

Here we go

Victorain

I used to learn Bengali and my sister learnt Hebrew at VSL - it's a government-run organisation that teaches various languages.  Generally they're language classes for students housed at different public schools, on Saturdays or Sundays.  Though I think VSL often offers VCE languages by distance. (?)

Generally parents who immigrated here and want their children to learn their cultural language will send them to VSL.

I love HHD its my favourite subject. Next year I plan to do methods, chemistry,biology and english.
