I'm always conflicted in those debates. My VCE subjects show a huge STEM focus but English has always been more of a strength for me (hence doing lit then eng lang[distance ed]). I try to appease both sides and encourage balance -  but extremes are easier to state and simpler to justify.

As you may have seen on the ATAR Notes - VCE Facebook page (you should definitely like it if you haven't already), we recently had a poll:

Is VCE Psych a science?

It's open for a few more days yet, but the results have been interesting! We have a couple of more polls lined up for a bit of banter, and for a bit of discussion. But because we're inclusive people, we're passing it over to you to suggest or request a Facebook poll!

What sort of things would you want to see? ;D

It looks like we have a winner for our first ever poll!

Is VCE Psych a science?
* You betcha: 40%
* Not a single chance: 60%

The next poll is now live! Make sure you make your vote count. ;) Also, share it to your palz to get some bants going. ;)
