Title: Subject Help!
Post by: lokdog on December 05, 2011, 10:00:22 pm

I just finished Yr 11 completing Physic,Chemistry,Methods,History20th,English(All 1&2) and Cisco Networking Academy semester 1 and 2.

I put down for Yr 12 Chemistry,Physic,Methods,English and Revolutions planning on dropping CCNA but I've had second thoughts. One of my 5 subjects has to be a bludge right? so if i get rid of Revolutions I can Keep CCNA i'll get the 10% increment to my ATAR, and I'll have the opportunity to apply for a $3000 scholarship (which I would most likely get).

Is this a good plan? CCNA is quite hard but the 10% increment could be crucial to my ATAR!

You don't necessarily have to have a bludge subject...

Many students do the "Asian 5" (English, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematical Methods and Specialist Mathematics) and are able to do very well.

I took out Specialist and did Business Management instead, so I could put more emphasis on my primary 4, but it's not for everyone :)

Well, maybe you should go for it.
