and @werdna: actually my parents don't expect 50s from me in German or Englang, because they know I'm not very strong at those, but I think I can do it if I put my head into it.



At least you managed to fulfill your parents expectations this year. Apparently my top 6 in the state and 45 for Classics was not satisfactory. And to make things worse, I'm being compared to a student who got 46 for methods because his score is higher than my classics score. Where's the logic in the that...

xD xD my parents are pissed that I didn't get an extra .05

Edit: sorry this is presuming you want to do medicine as a career after biomed anyways

I agree with Taiga. If Med is what you really want to do, you should do the course at any university that will accept you. You're only holding off your medical career by doing biomed, and it's an added roadblock and risk to getting into the course you really want.

Of course it's your decision... :) Good luck!

definitely agree, if you want to do med, then go interstate and do med - not risking it with a science degree that may lead you elsewhere..

Whilst usually against necromancy, this thread is still warm and its a quick question so I don't want to make a thread for it.

How are you guys balancing midyear subjects (chem, psych for me) with your other subject study? Are you doing m/y first and then rest or what?

Ill focus mainly on chemistry during the 1st semster as it's my only mid year. Probs wont spend too much time on methods more on spesh.

Same. I've only got Chemistry. It will take precedence over my other subjects.

I knew someone last year from my school who did Chemistry, Physics and Accounting, which all have mid-year exams. If that makes you feel any better. :p
