I'm doing Enviro 3/4 and it's my favourite subject :)

It's not hard at all! It's interesting and requires hardly any work compared to all the other sciences, and the textbook is tiny.  I probably do 30 mins (or less) a week of Enviro h/w out of class...which is like nothing

This probably sounds bad but I hardly studied for the mid year and got an A haha and I'm really not smart at all, a lot of the exam is common sense, you just have to know some stats and terms :)

My teacher said theres only about 600 kids in the whole of Victoria doing it, and our school has 50 of them lol.

its a circular situation, schools arent teaching it because students dont seem to want it, students dont seem to want it because schools dont seem to offer it, so they dont bother :)
in all honesty, its probably because its a new subject
