    help english extension and other sub

    Mmmmm Pho =] Well what I found was that prelim Ext. English was pretty much centered around self study and farmiliarising you with the kind of stuff you would do in the HSC course (at least I think it was). Our class just watched videos the whole year and it was pretty much a bludge anyway...

    how is chem for prelim and HSC???

    HSC course is a lot more interesting than preliminary chem. Practise writing equations down through out the year as it isn't exactly something you can just cram in. Kind of like maths, where you need to practise a lot. But I never did this for prelims, so I kind of suck at writing equations...

    Biology Text Book

    I heard from my Biology teacher that the Year 12 Jacaranda was really good for the course and that the top students all used it. I'm not sure about the Year 11 one though, as I used mainly Macquarie and Heinamen. Also the book's like a freaken encyclopedia so I really can't be bothered reading...

    which elective is best?

    At our school, all biology classes do genetics:the code broken. My teacher said it was a lot easier to digest than the other optiosn as we would have gained the basis of the topic when we did blueprint of life. But damn, I would have loved to do the human story.

    Ext. Eng - drop it, or not?

    As soon as the oppurtunity came up, I dropped Ext. English. It wasn't because I was doing poorly in it, but because I just couldn't be bothered working through another year of it. To me, the subject was mostly a bludge throughout Year 11. Classes were pretty damn interesting but the homework we...
