I need a high GPA. Are breadths scaled (i.e. if I do joke breadths, will I be punished?)
-
Depends on the subject themselves. If people happen not to be scoring the marks the way that they would like it to be distributed scaling can occur, but it's not subject comparative scaling, i.e. not scaling depending on how they perceive relative breadth subjects eg. time taken to study per week, how hard they are, what students score in other subjects etc. Scaling probably doesn't occur in many subjects as well. What do you mean by a joke breadth?

Some people suggested to do stuff like Wine Tasting and that weird Forestry subject which are ultra easy and grab GPA.

Up to you, but I wouldn't say they are an easy H1, because they can't just give everyone an H1, so it would still require you to do some work.
Edit:
Oh and I forgot the main point: do something you enjoy. If it happens to coincide, great, but if you're forcing yourself to do it, then you probably won't get much of it and miss out on what could be.

I 've heard wine tasting isn't as easy as it sounds as you have to full analyse/write about the wines you're tasting.
GLEE SINGING however... that's a different story. Join me
