Well I posted this in BoS (before I knew about FSN)
So I thought Id copy and paste it here cause it was pretty popular there =)

What VCE subjects is everybody doing this year and how are you finding them... and which 3/4 did you guys do last year (and what did u get )



I just wanna know this out of curiousity





Well to get things started my set of VCE subjects this year are



Methods - probably my hardest subject

Psychology 3/4 - a lot of memorising but not too bad

Physics - im finding it pretty difficult ......

English- issues and other stuff, aint too bad.... we have an oral soon ... not much work

Legal - AWESOME!!! and we talk about news for 20 mins of every class so that just makes it more interesting/bludgy

Literature - Really enjoy, one of my better subjects
Physics - So far its been easy, although i'm probably speaking to soon.
Chemistry - Have good days and bad days, Not to bad though
Methods - Probably hardest subject but its been ok so far.

Did Accounting and texts and traditions last year. Happy with texts as i got higher than expected doing little work. Accounting, dissapointed as i was aiming for 40 but you can't come much closer than i did. I learnt alot from doing these subjects early.

English - probably my better subject if not best
Accounting - my fave subject expect to do well
Economics - really hate this subject very boring
Media - good subject i find it similar to english in a way, pretty easy
Further Maths - easy subject but must be careful in not making stupid mistakes

Like iamdan08 said i have also learnt alot from my 3/4 last year legal studies, so i expect this will help me with this year

I know. I like reading it, listening to others, writing etc....I just don't have a lot of confidence when it comes to speaking.
But I figure since I've been learning french since yr 7 I might as well stick it out. And it does scale nicely.
