Nah, don't wanna, i heard lots of bad stuff
Like a friend of mine who has won every Victorian eisteddfod in the open age group and has LMus with distinction
And got 41 for music perf :P
AND someone else who is a competition junkie, arguably Victoria's best school-age violinist, got 40 last year

So don't mind me giving it the flick :D

I have a study timetable.  if you replace all the time on there that says STUDY, with TV, computer or sleep, it may actually be accurate...

I'd hate to count all the time i waste procrastinating.... (like right now i really should be doing methods!)

But as you are required to do it, why not make the most out of it -- by not solely focusing on score. Maybe (and this is a huge development!!) you could learn at school rather than merely targeting score :o

Why not do them at ur top 6 instead?..

because i don't want it to be counted towards my enter since i wont be doing any work for it and get a horrible study score... and i can't drop any of my other ones except perhaps uni chem which i'll see, (probably won't).

Not quite because of your "VCE" - it's more because of school admin stuff.  From what I gather, schools hate the idea of having kids who just bludge around all day doing nothing in their year 12 - not sure what the policy at MGGS is, but at MGS you have to "officially" be doing five subjects in year 12 (ie. Uni subjects count).  

In terms of SCORE, yes; but is there not more to school than score??

Barely - I'm doing VCE for an ENTER/ATAR...?

I agree with M@tty.  Coming from someone who was intending to do 8 subjects in total, you only have your youth once.  If you're more or less guaranteed entry into the course you want, why not learn more whilst you're at it?

I know people in my school that are doing 4 subs, they have 10 spares a week...I know some who have 12 spares a week...

but then again, maybe that policy is observed in the better schools lol!

Theres an opposite too.

Some of the people doing VCAL or VET (Like sign writing or something) sometimes stay till 7pm.

Get home at 7ish (rehearsals/various other strange things...), chillax on the computer, eat dinner in about ten minutes, chillax then start working whilst talking on MSN from about 8 onwards. 

This is why I need three spares a day.  >.>
Wow, that's a lot of spares a day! How many spares will I get (see 2012 on my signature) in year 12?

Potentially more than me, but I'm not sure if your school lets you do only three subjects at school in year 12...
What am I meant to do? 7 VCE subjects and an UMEP altogether? naaaa can't be stuffed doing 8 subjects in total... not worth the effort.

Not quite because of your "VCE" - it's more because of school admin stuff.  From what I gather, schools hate the idea of having kids who just bludge around all day doing nothing in their year 12 - not sure what the policy at MGGS is, but at MGS you have to "officially" be doing five subjects in year 12 (ie. Uni subjects count).

Spend it learning an instrument or partying a bit more or use the extra time to improve your other subjects.
How can one be guaranteed?.. You point only applies to people guaranteed into a course then.

What if you have extra time on top of that?  :p 

But yeah, fair enough.  If you need to prioritise getting into a course, do that.  However, I think it's legit for high achieving students to push themselves into learning a wider breadth of subjects.  =)

Wait, I haven't folded yet...

:P

I stand by the assertion that more subjects =\= useless. For all students, not just high achievers.

You were probably concentrating on the fact that they were pathetic and required rote learning -- that's what I did a least. My new philosophy is to profit from any situation I find myself in.

I am sure that some benefit can be found in everything, even "pathetic" subjects.

What about pathetic rote learning subjects where you really don't learn anything?..
e.g .. year 7-10 lol

I found value even in those subjects.  I can't imagine a subject where you "don't learn anything".
