URGENT PLEASE HELP

Hi I am a year 10 student choosing my subjects tomorrow and I am thinking about doing
I am worried it might be too content heavy with modern history but I think Modern history seems interesting like only some parts of it but legal studies a bit of it seems boring I don't know if i should do modern history or legal. Because modern history is harder and legal is easier so whats your advice. I ALSO THINK I CAN ACHIEVE HIGHER ATAR WITH LEAGL SINCE IT IS EASIER AND LESS ESSAYW RITING BUT MODERN SEEMS MORE INTERESTING SO SHOULD I DO LEGAL OR MODERN

• Modern History

Don’t pick it if it’s boring cause u don’t want ur life to become miserable. I think pick modern cause legal can be a lot too and I think legal and modern are similar difficulties

I didnt take modern but I did take legal so I cant compare but legal and business fits pretty well together (depending on ur chosen options). Im not sure how much writing modern does but legal does have a lot of writing. You have to write 3 essays that are worth 65% of your exam mark. I found legal pretty interesting tho.

Hello nerdy153,

While the decision is up to you, I prefer modern to legal, in terms of content... Both a viable options however
I doubt the difference in ATAR if you choose modern over legal will be significant.

Hope this helps,

nope. You have a crime essay (15 marks) and then 2 essays for your options (25 marks each)
