It's better to have the minimum 10 units as it will allow you to concentrate on each subject and excel and there will be a less workload, however there is a higher risk as if you 'flunk-out' you have nothing to fall back on.

P.S. Welcome to all the new members.

Yeah, but I'd suggest to people doing Extension 2 Mathematics and to some extent Extension 2 English, to do 11 units in case they choose to drop.

Hey Guys!

I'm doing:

- Standard English
- General Math
- Business Studies
- Ancient History
- Information Technology
- Biology (Dropping it!)

I'm Aiming for a UAI of about 80 and I currently do exceptionally well (90+) in all my subjects. If I maintain this mark nxt year, will it be possible for me to achieve a UAI of 80 ,?
eventhough i drop biology?

I agree with that. I'm planning to keep 12 units for the HSC - because I'm planning to do Extension 2 Maths, because in case I flunk out - I have something to fall back on. Also because I've accelerated, it won't be too bad having 12 units. But yeah, I think, try and do 10 units, unless you are doing an extension course, then better off being safe and doing 11/12. I think you would be crazy to do any more than 12 in your HSC, unless you are accelerated.

Also, welcome itzagurlthang =]

Yeah, I think with those subjects, if you work hard and get good results, it will be pretty easy to get a UAI over 80, even 90. Not all your subjects are bad though, business and ancient seem alright to me, but Standard English and General might be a bit difficult to get over 90 ... but work at it... and you should get a good UAI.

Anyone who says that a subject is 'easy' or a 'bludge' is wrong. You have to work hard in any subject, otherwise you will not get a decent mark. Nobody can fluke their way in the HSC.

But enough of that... welcome guys.
