Subject selection, assessments, conspiracies
27 Aug 2004I just remembered that I haven’t yet posted my submitted subject selections for next year, so here it is:
Advanced English – 2 units
Extension 2 English – 2 units
Modern History – 2 units
Mathematics – 2 units
Business Studies – 2 units
Information Technology Framework – 2 units
——-
Information Technology Specialisation Studies – 2 units (Board-accredited, not relevant to UAI)
Total of 12+2 units.
I’m excited about the lack of physics on that list, and the addition of a unit of English. I’m also excited about being able to lose a subject sometime next year — although it will be hard to decide which to lose, as Maths is… discouraging, but more enjoyable than Business Studies, which is dead boring, frustrating, but doable. Meh! That’s still a bit down the track, I guess.
In other news, which actually happened a few days ago, but has only just come to my attention (whilst drinking Milo, no less — it really is a brain food/drink! — no, I’m not getting paid for product placement, I choose to!), I’ve decided that SACS really is scheduling drama events to co-incide with tests and assessments, specifically of the Mathematics variety.
Wednesday, HSC drama AND a maths test (which I missed, and was re-scheduled to Thursday anyway; not that it mattered, since I hadn’t looked at a maths book for about five days prior to that, and really did need to study). Earlier in the year? I think it was SACS Idol (which was in blog version 1.5, I think, which has since disappeared into the void – so no hyperlinking here), which we were halfway through bump-in for (Wednesday morning?) and I had a maths test. It may have even been the same day in the two-week cycle. Wouldn’t suprise me!
They’re out to get us. Don’t doubt it.
Man, I really want to wear a tinfoil hat into school some day. It’s on the list of crazy things to do.
