There's no Major Work for SDD. There is possibly a project that goes towards the internal assessment mark (up to the teacher to decide how big this project becomes), but not a major Work that is externally assessed.

Probably been mentioned before, but why spread it over two years? To me it sounds like a real good idea (More time for study, work & play? Be able to nail all the subjects?), and possibly consider it in the future!

Me;

  • PE

That's it :eek: Give me something to concentrate a bit on next year with only subject really counting towards anything, hopefully i can nail it.

Down in Vicco i will be doing

English
Physical Education
Art - Painting
Studio Art - Photography
Visual Communication and Design

The only bad thing is that all of my subjects bar English will be marked down, which means i have to get really good scores for everything to get a decent mark :(.

Yeah that's pretty much it.

Some people have called me stupid and saying I'm wasting a year of my life but the way I see it is that I can waste 1 year and spend the rest of my life doing something I love instead of mssing out on a uni course I want and getting a job that I hate and ending up wasting the rest of my life...

A stitch in time saves nine ;).

Thought i'd post this question up here.

But does anyone know if there's a significant ENTER score difference between doing very well in general maths, and just passing methods in exams? Just wondering if i want to continue doing my methods this year (year 11), as it's getting tricker to juggle with Physics and Chemistry next to it.

Also, it's start of term two. How we all doing? My only year 12 subject this year has been PE, and really liking it so far, not even as hard as i'd first thought it'd be! So that's a plus, also helps that i've got interest in it, having an interest in a subject sure does help how hard you find it ay!

I'd suggest keeping methods, it will compliment physics next year with regards to the mathematical side of the physics course alot. As to whether there would be a significant difference in doing well in Further or average in Methods depends on you, how capable you are at maths.To get above 38 raw or so in Further you pretty much need straight A's and A+'s.. and does get marked down 1 or 2. On the other hand doing methods and receiving average marks will get you around 30, and will be marked up 4-6 or so. I'd keep methods, more benefit for you, and further I found very tedious.Think about it over the course of the year.

Alright. Thanks for that mate! Helped a lot. I think i'll try and stick methods out until Mid-year at least and reevaluate from there, also, as i've no clue what i want to do after school, methods would keep my options open to more uni courses, but part of my plan as i don't know what i want to do, is to have as much fun at school as possible, whilst trying to keep a healthy enter!
