Stats for no. of students in each subject in VIC?

[flusher317]

Hey guys
wondering if anyone knows what the most popular subjects are in terms of number of ppl doing them??

[costargh]

1. English 100% guaranteed

[cara.mel]

VCAA lists the top 5 somewhere (think it's English, Further, Methods, HHD and Psych, but order will be wrong)
Edit: found link (for 06 at least) http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/vce/statistics/2006_statistics.html

You can look at how many people did an individual subject here: http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/vce/statistics/2007/statssect2.html, but in terms of ranking all of them I'm not sure where to find it, apart from manually

[costargh]

This is for 2006. Not much would have changed in terms of placing IMO
 Top six subjects (i.e. biggest enrolment):

   1. English (excluding English as a Second Language): 44,376
   2. Further Mathematics: 24,472
   3. Mathematical Methods: 16,621
   4. Psychology: 15,125
   5. Health and Human Development: 11,698.

You can get the current stats from the grade distribution reports for each individual subject (2007).

For example, psych had 15,051 students last year.

 I'm guessing Biology and Chemistry will be 6th and 7th




   edit: from what I've seen so far:  6th Biol
                                                 7th Chem
                                                 8th PE
                                                 9th Legal
                                                 10th Accounting :idiot2:
                                                 11th Studio
                                                 12th Viscomm

                though I or someone else might revise that later
