if you could go back in time and do VCE again what would you have done differently?
-
I would've done Psych or BM instead of Chem or gotten a Chem tutor.
-
i would have kept my subjects the same but would have tried to be consistent with study, also may not have bothered so much with having tutors
apart from that, maybe pressure my school to let me do 2 3/4 subs in yr 11

This.
-
Drop methods.
-
I would have done different subjects:
Methods, Spesh, Further, Uni Maths, English, Chinese
no physics coz its broken
no chem coz its gay
no music coz its biased

same! would have done further in year 11.
-
I would hire TrueTears as my tutor :P and do specialist maths instead of Further and Chemistry instead of Business Management.
-
Would have done further in yr 11 aswell.

+1 i would have done further if i could do another
-
I would change all most of my subjects
English -> English
Legal -> Legal
Chem -> National Politics
Methods -> Further
Indo -> Biology
and in yr 11 I would want to do Business Management
-
Tried that little bit harder in Biology.
-
I would have done a humanities subject (most likely accounting) instead of physics.
-
i wud have picked furthur instead of spesh,
picked biology instead of accounting
-
Would've done methods in yr 11, dropped french and did accounting. Got a tutor for English as well
-
done really really badly on purpose so that the only course I could get into was music/arts because then my parents have no choice but to let me do it :D
or dropped business management/biology for psychology or music styles or national politics or philosophy
-
do further in year 10.
in year12 instead of doing lit, take up accounting
-
Not to have done literature but psych last year, and to not underestimate the competition of VCE :P
-
should have done further and methods advanced instead of methods and bio... :(
-
should have done further and methods advanced instead of methods and bio... :(

-
I think she means Advanced General
-

-
hired herzy
-
nah kidding, i would've dropped methods, not dropped french, and done another subject like psych or outdoor education.
-
studied for biology
-
I would have done year 12 biology in year 11 and swap English for English language and get a tutor for it.

that one is slightly different
and new thread > necromancy
-
yeah but i thought it relevant ... maybe he wants to look at past members ....
but new threads are ok .. new people...
not many people use the 'search' function
-
Put more effort into Accounting or dropped it and do methods or chinese in year 11.
-
Put more effort in throughout year 12 :(
:P
Probably do English Language, and another few subjects starting in year 10, like 2 in year 10, then 3 in year 11, then 5 in year 12, would've been cool as.
-
Yeah, I would've liked to have done a few subjects in year 10, but my school only lets people who do a LOTE which they speak fluently.
-
I would've done English Language instead of English, (only reason didn't get to do this is because my school didn't offer English Language), would have done Uni maths and Physics (have to do year 12 physics in uni anyway)
-
Wouldn't have screwed my Japanese 3/4 last year, so I would have six subjects not five. Or rather, NOT do 3/4 Jap in year 11. So gay.
Would've maybe done Studio for a sixth subject. And actually hand something in for the subject, as I did not do last year.
I also would have liked to have done VET music, but hard to do if the school doesn't offer it.
I think English Language would be pretty cool, but I'm actually quite liking English despite not having done that great on the SAC.
-

What is the main difference between English Language and English anyway?
I think it's just a completely different subject lol, not just having a "main" difference.

Yeah there's no comparison as they are just so different, people ask me this at least 3 times a week ha.
English language is basically the study of language, how it is used to show identity, and so on, we also do quite a bit of the technical aspects such as morphology (formation of words, about parts of speech -adj/verbs/..), phonology (sound systems), etc.
English is (as you probs know) studying texts and writing essays about themes and characters....yeahhhhh

I'm scared that I'm going to regret my performance this year :S...
Success tips?
i've already regretted my performance, i barely even do the set homework
=fail.
i thought all we needed to get through was motivation, but clearly we need more .__.
-
Yeah im falling behind when studying for SACs..
-
Ditto ^
I can't believe how fast this term went :S

Study motherfucker. There isn't any secret to it, stop being lazy (like I was) and do some fucking work!
sci-fact: swearing increases the likelihood of persuasion.

At some point yes :) And I agree with you on that one.

For some odd reason, I am picturing a scene where lawyers are swearing at the judges in a court

I quit facebook a year ago - never really gotten back to it much. Deactivated for around 360 days of the year so it doesn't take up my time anymore. BEST DECISION EVER.
I suppose... if you want to be isolated haha.
-
I suppose... if you want to be isolated haha.
Not really... what's the point of a phone, email or irl communication then???
Haha, if facebook was your only contact with people I consider that pretty isolated, people survived well before fb and will after
-
I deactivated mines because i was getting addicted to restaurant city and zanga poker...(and then i feel like baggin those sad sad ppl that play poker online and have no life...when i was once one of them XD)

We had a debate last year "That technology has killed true communication" or something along the lines of that. To an extent, true.
I agree with that, technology is gay. MSN is gay, facebook is gay, myspace (was) gay, mobiles are gay. If I could chose to be born 50 years ago rather than 18 I would have.
-
Rely on Morse code :)
-
I'd have dumped Chem, taken Spesh instead of it. I'd have worked harder for English, by doing perhaps an essay a week from the start of the year.

You seem like the type of person who'd have thrived doing English Language...
-
Complain to vcaa that my school wouldn't let me drop english, drop english, keep french.

She really is. 99.95 for sure. :P Now we're just rubbing it in.
-
I would have done Chinese in Year 11, as well as actually handwrite English essays. Including the exams, I think I only handwrote 10 or so in total last year whereas I've already handwritten 10 in this first term.
Edit: Fixed confusing wording
-
LOL, I wish I'd taken Eng Lang, at least I wouldn't have hated it as much as Eng (I think I wouldn't have :P). No guarantee as to whether I'd have done better though.

lol only handwrote 10 last year. I don't even think i did 10 pieces of writing last year!
but yeah, i wish i did a lote. could have done italian but didn't really want to do distance ed.
french or latin would have been good, or even japanese or german.
i reckon i would like doing an asian language because it would be something completely out of this world, which i'd have never seen before, plus symbols are cool. :)

last year i did all stuff on comp biggest mistake
yea if i was told at yr 7 to do a lote and if my school offered German at yr 7 i would prob be doing a lote, right now.
-
Would have done Biology instead of Physics. Regret is what happens when you pick scaling over interest.
Edit: Unless the subject in question is English Language. Then you laugh at everyone else who wished they chose English Language.
-
I wish I had done accounting instead of physics. And also thrown away chem for something easier, like further.

Yep, its cause majority of people are naturally good at it or just have a strong interest in it.
