Advice needed - choosing methods!

Hey there :D

Just a bit of background info, I am currently looking into studying a dual degree of law and commerce at Monash University Clayton. The prerequisites for this are a 30 in any english, and 25 in methods or spesh.

I am fine with English, but I honestly struggled with Year 9 maths, and I am only taking Year 10 maths in 2013.
How hard is it to get a 25 study score in methods, and should I even bother with it (is it way too hard to even try?)

Thanks :)

If you're in Year 10, you're on track doing Year 10 maths, so you are all good in that regard.

I'm response to getting >25 for Methods, it should be quite easy. In order to get that score, you have to be in the top 75% of the class. If you are half-decent at Maths, you should be getting above 25. Also, Commerce is quite mathematical depending on your major, and a 25 may not cut it.

Remember, you're on in Year 10, so you can chill a bit before VCE. Don't aim for 25, aim for the best score you can.

Wow, that's a tad early. I got my Year 11 subjects down November before Year 11, not an entire year beforehand haha. Best of luck with your studies.
