Thought I'd pop in for a visit. Year 11 treating you well so far?

stressing about the fact I don't know what I want to do with my life.
Too relatable. And I'm in Year 12! I reckon some uni students still don't know what to do either!

If anyone can direct me to threads about 90+ ATAR's and 50 study scores I'd be so grateful.
I may be beaten to it, but I have these two AN links saved to my bookmarks and it may be of use to you.  :)

How many subjects do you think will be best? I'm trying to decide whether I should do less and focus really hard on them OR do more and perhaps do less good at them.
Thank you :))

Year 11 is fairly cruisy, except for my year 12 subject - slowly becoming more and more stressed about it.
Thank you so much :))

Hey Jade. What do you see to be the pros and cons of doing 4/5 subjects as it stands? :)

Pros: Less subjects more time to really get good at the few subjects (then ok at many)
Cons:but then again a particular quote is always stuck in my head "If You Want Something Done, Ask a Busy Person To Do It"
and teachers are suggesting you do 6 so then you use your 'free time' more productively.

Not sure I agree with this bit necessarily. Sorry if you've covered it already, but remind me what the other subject you'd be considering is?

God damnit,  I have no idea why this made me laugh so much but it did.

Hey Jade!! Haven't commented here yet so thought I'd say hello. How are you finding Year 11? And lol same I did Psych last year and we learnt about neurons and dendrites then. Oooh I just saw you're doing Psych too YASS it's the BEST!!! Of course having the most amazing teacher helped a lot! What movie are you watching? Great job on your Business Management mark!!

Why is Criminology/Paramedicine your dream career? And I'm really liking those smart and specific goals you've set yourself, a Year 12 may just be having to take up some of that and use it too ;)

lobster joke!!

Hey Mango8!
Thank you, That's a brilliant joke BTW.
Ever since I was very young I wanted to have a career in law and I read all the books in my local library on law but when i got older I realized how difficult it would be and I gave up on the idea untill recently I was like if I never try imma regret it.
I'm also a VICSES volunteer and I love volunteering as a first responder especially the medical/casualty handling side of things and I enjoy helping people.

What a stitch-up. 😂

What's the movie, btw? I remember watching (read: being in the room for) The Truman Show and Mean Girls in Psych 1&2.
