2 people at my school are doing 3/4 Physics this year in Year 11. Bad choice IMO
Should wait till they take transistors out of the course :P

I'd have to say that this "year 10s aren't mature enough" argument is rubbish.
nah you do have year 10s who have down syndrome, at my school there's heaps of them

Well, at my school, we have this accelerated program, where we get to skip the pointlessness of year 10. complete 7,8,9&10 in 3 years, then get 3 years on our vce :) it works out great. so in year 11 i did six 1/2 subjects, (had the option of doing a 3/4, as i did 1/2 bio in year9) then second year of vce, (known as fake year 12) did 3 3/4 subjects and two 1/2 subjects. this year, final year of vce, doing 5 3/4 subjects.
Its a really good system, as it means we dont get bored with the earlier years as we are always advanced, and then get to do a wider range of subjects in vce :)
love my school!

That sounds awesome! What school? And do you mean you did six 1/2's in year 10?

How did you go in your 3/4s last year

Box Hill High! Awesome school!
And I did relatively well on my 3/4's last year.
HHD = 46, but I bludged through most of the year, and was only ranked like 10th for sacs. ooops :)
Legal = 38 kinda bludged this too!
P.E = 36, but we got screwed over so bad last year for that. teacher just...disappeared.

But it was great to do them all last year, coz its a taste of what real year 12 was like, so now this year i been working my butt off and its paying off!

My school owns :)
our unofficial motto is "the school where its cool to be smart ;)"
how cool :)
