Hello everyone,
This is my first post so go easy,
I
urgently need advice on what subject I should continue on with for Year 11 VCE.
I am starting my 3rd week back tomorrow and I'm still trying to figure out what subject I should pursue out of Chemistry and Accounting...
The subjects I'm doing currently are:
English Language 1&2
Specialist Maths 1&2 (distance ed)
Math Methods 1&2
Physics 1&2
Chemistry 1&2
and I just picked up Accounting 1&2 today (distance ed)
I only need 5 subjects as a requirement but I wanted to get a feel for accounting before I made my final decision on which one to drop (hasn't helped because I'm still being introduced and I am very aware that a subject changes throughout units 1-4).
I am very mathematical, loving specialist, methods and physics but my problem is the heavy heavy content load, I felt like chemistry was the heaviest and almost too much. So I decided to pick up accounting because it is a subject I did in year 10 and found the exam really simple (although I did not listen in class).
In terms of my strengths and weaknesses:
Maths/physics is easily my strongest area because of the "click", once I get it, I get it
My memory isn't that great when it comes to school, I have found methods that work but definitely not a strong point of mine
I'm not a writer/typer, I find myself constantly editing my work until it appears perfect which is very time consuming, I found writing was more present in Chemistry then I expected (going to struggle with EL)
I have never done chemistry and I have little prior knowledge to accounting, my questions to you are:
What subject seems best suited in terms of a high study score?
I am starting about 3 weeks late to accounting, will that be difficult to catch up?
Which subject has the least amount of content to remember?
Which subject did you/will I find easier?
Will distance ed accounting be a challenge in itself? (I have good discipline but am working on my study habits)
I probably will enjoy chemistry slightly more but that doesn't have an impact on which one I should choose because I am very focussed either way. Also, please no replies telling me that chemistry leads me to more pathways because I am already aware of the prerequisites for what I want to do at uni. Take in to consideration whichever subject I choose, I plan on doing in year 12 as well.
Thanks guys,
Hope you can help
