Choosing subjects to study should be based on three things:
- ABILITY - how good you are at subjects.
- INTEREST - which subjects you enjoy most.
- CAREER, OCCUPATION AND FUTURE STUDY INTENTIONS - If you know what career or tertiary course your want to follow, find out what subjects you need to enter these career areas or courses.
Remember the following:
- Keep the course you choose a broad one - across a range of subjects and curriculum areas.
- Make sure you continue studying English, Mathematics and Science for as long as you can.
- Do NOT make a choice based on what your friends are doing or who the teacher is.
