doesnt that mean you dont learn the shower you're supposed to learn in year 11 spesh though? :S

You can get around it because most of the year 11 spesh isn't that much harder than year 11 methods (it's just expanded on)

I think it's common to have done the complex numbers aspect (for yr 12) in year 11 so Im not too surprised they doubled up on the whole years worth of study. Some of my friends even did yr 12 spesh without any yr11 spesh so it can be done

Very nice RB, heard psych was a brain duller, not very enjoyable whatsoever haha, but hopefully you make the best decision for yourself man! Yeah Methods is a killer atm, got so much HW to deal with and I'm way behind the eight ball, might have to get some textbook answers from you at some stage next year hahaha. Wouldn't do that to you but!
I loved Psych in high school (still do depending on topics)! If anybody needs help with anything Psychology or Economics related, hit me up ;).

As for VCE in general, just time manage and try not to burn out by studying too hard throughout the year. Pace yourself and time manage :). And enjoy the holidays coming up while they last (or use them to get ahead).

Didn't really excel at too many topics, I was okay at Business Management and English though.

I was only good at being SRC tbh.

If that was asked at my Vinny, English isn't compulsory in YR 12 in SA. :D (So glad it's not)

Why wouldn't you want to do English? Best subject by far, and that's not just because I was good at it. 99.9% of English teachers are great people, and the content is generally good books/movies.

When you do two Maths subjects, it's unlikely you do English unless you have to. I agree though, pretty much all English teachers are top people.

Most people that are good at maths are generally shower at English, and vice versa. And when (in my case) you're forced to have English as one of your "top 4" that contribute to your ATAR, it's not so fun :-\
I do agree though that English teachers are generally pretty awesome
