Breadth Subject!

Hi guys!!

Struggling here... but, what are you all doing as breadth subjects? I'm in the science course and I have no I idea what to choose!

Something "easy" - not really looking for something that needs more hours of work than my core subjects, yet doesn't make me fall asleep? The eternal struggle to find something of this description!

Thanks for any help in advance!

Intercultural communication, the exams worth 30% and i'd rather subjects with most of the mark based off assignments.

El do you know if it would require some intense memorization or a well defined skill to do?

I don't think so it's basically like an extention of vce english language, but there are concepts new to me too. A girl I knew who did secret life of language in semester 1 got all H1s for her assignments without having done vce english language. The tutorials are also helpful too.

Oh yeah, I just did that because the two subjects 'secret life of language' and 'intercultural communication' both come under linguistics anyway :P

I'm in the science course and I chose to do it as a subject. It requires a lot of work not including the lectures which are sometimes mentally draining and the pracs you have almost every week. If you are thinking of chemistry just as a "give it a shot"  subject, you really shouldn't!

Aside from this, just wanted to see if anyone has completed music psychology or heard anything about it?

I'm doing VCE Chemistry and it's probably my best/favourite subject so that's more along the lines of why I want to do it! For some inconceivable reason I actually love Chemistry, despite being more of an Arts type, and have done a lot of reading outside the course.

Apparently music psychology is a bit of a bludge, particularly in terms of the assignments.

So your not in uni yet? Or you mean your doing chemistry fundamentals?
