I don't think math should be the compulsory subject. I think it should ALWAYS be english.
BUT, as I've mentioned before the current English subject is not truly english and focuses too much on literary studies. It needs to be MUCH MORE broad on the different topics of English, rather than focusing on 100 year old books.
I can imagine how illiterate our society would become if we made math the compulsory subject (thus making english not compulsory). Half of Australia is made up of immigrants, so we need to focus on English to make sure people actually know how to use it properly.
