LOL


Is physics 3/4 hard by any means? How much effort/workload compared to other subjects?
The only reason I'm asking is because I've seen on other threads that it's possible to get 40+ with a half-decent teacher.

couldn't further become the 'bludge' subject (if i am doing methods as well)?

Thanks again :)

Further could definitely be your bludge subject. It was mine last year. But does your school let you do Further without General? If you find it fun, like going to have friends doing it then why not. But you will be put with the year 12's, unless there are lots of year 11's doing further too.

My friends that do physics say its not too bad, but they find it really boring. How do you feel about the whole physics stuff?

I wouldn't mind physics, but I don't know what makes it boring.

@Pi
Could you further clarify how it's not hard?

I literally did nothing throughout the year (especially in Unit 4), just made a cheat sheet and went to tsfx revision lectures (where I learned the whole course) and got a 41 raw.

I probably got lucky in a few areas, but it's honestly not that hard. I just didn't work because I couldn't find anything to like about the subject.
