It's so sad that not many people do EES :(

In my school there has been consistently 2-3 full classes for the past 6 years - we have a really passionate teacher! I didn't study it myself (not science minded), but I know it's a really great course!

Have you both enjoyed it? Do you study biology as well or just EES?

Yes in fact I study biology and ees. I find that they work really well together :) And I love both of them! Sadly there's only 1 EES class and a massive 5 Bio classes

My school has 12 Earth students, and our option topic is Oceanography. My brother graduated in 2015, also did earth and achieved 3rd in the state for the subject, and I hope to share some of his knowledge!

Trainstation that would be amazing! EES is a small but mighty cohort...can't wait to see what you can help out with :)

Helloooooo everybody.
I'm going to try and respond to any questions you may have about Earth. I had an absolutely fantastic teacher and plenty of resources, so I hope I can be of help!

I'm doing Introduced Species! So good and it links really well with Prelim Bio topic "Local Ecosystem" and also a bit of the Prelim "Local Environment". Think the reason why my teacher chose it, cause most of us did Bio and therefore, we had a good foundation for the effects of introduced species towards the ecosystems.

Honestly, I wanted to do Oceanography!

I think we'll be doing introduced species as well!! Though living in quite a marine centered area all the other sciences have gone the ocean/marine based options which was suprising to me anyway  :)

This is what I studied too! I remember my teacher saying that a large majority of students do Introduced Species - something around 80%.
