Hey
So I was wondering about class numbers and dropouts, in particular for extension (usually smaller classes) and accelerated subjects where you'd be doing the hsc exam this year.
What were the starting class sizes? How many people have dropped so far? How many people do you predict will drop by the end of term 3 or drop after term 3? What class size do you think you will end up with?
For me
Advanced English: we have about 25 people, no drops. I think we may have about 2 drops.
Extension English: started with 10 people, now have 8. They couldn't be bothered. Maybe one more drop.
Extension Mathematics (this is one class with combined Math and Extension, unlike English): started with about 20 people, and 3 have dropped. One was a new girl who couldn't bother turning up for early classes; one got an 'n' warning because she got <40% on the exam and had to drop; one because she was away for about 2 weeks and just couldn't catch up. Our class is like one big family (we've all been in the same class for four years and love our teacher), apart from the newbie, it was sad oh but we might have another newbie. I think there will be about 6 more drops.
Bio: i think we have about 18 people, no drops. I'm going to drop after term 3 though.
Ancient History: about 30 people, no drops. I think maybe 2.
Music: I think we have 12 people. We've had 3 drop so far, I think there might be one or two more.
SOR I (accelerated): we had 8 people, 1 has dropped. I think one girl is considering dropping, but she's dedicated, so I think we'll be sticking to 7
I love my math class - I don't want anyone to go. I love religion. And music is great. But for the other subject, as for classmates, I wouldn't mind a few drops haha.
