Dilemma of a Secondary School Student: Science or Humanities?

We READ for getting information that can be used for various purposes such as getting knowledge, getting entertained etc.

We STUDY, that is we observe and note (in written form, printed form or in our conscious as well as in subconscious mind) and learn things that may be used (by us or by others) to improve our life.

We get TRAINED to achieve solutions to problems humankind faces in the present or may face in future.

If you want to read, just read. You don’t need to know what to read, and you don’t need someone or some organisation/institution to tell you what to read. (YOU DON’T NEED A SCHOOL FOR THIS, GOOGLE IS ENOUGH!)

If you want to study, you can observe anything and everything that makes sense to you. It can be the movement of ants or the movement of the stars or the amount of irritation associated with the degree of temperature or the relation between the name of a king and the happiness of the kingdom…it can be anything i.e. anything. But it must be a continuous effort. Wise people call it research. Gautam Buddha did this, Newton did this, Faraday did this, P. D. Ouspensky did this, Euclid did this, Edward Jenner did this . . . (You may be in the list after few hundred years). (YOU DON’T NEED A SCHOOL FOR THIS, GOOGLE is neither necessary nor sufficient, but may shorten your time for the research)

But if you want to get trained, you need formal education i.e. school or college. Our education system is all about training. We learn logic and calculation through Mathematics, Language, Terminology and definitions, Visualization through Literature, Skill through Art and sculpture and we learn to improvise from our past success and failures through History. We learn about our habitat (Geography) so we can search for solutions (and prospective problems). We learn to interact with our present society through Civics and past society through Anthropology etc.

One can learn about most of the Humanities part at any stage of their life. But it is difficult to learn logic and skill in the later stage.

So, you go for the path that keeps your options open. Go for Science, that too with Mathematics (even if you opt for Biology). 

If you find Mathematics difficult to understand, Axisa Academy and Exium Classes can help you. Link of the full article: https://axisa.in/science-or-humanities-after-class-10

had a huge dilemna brought to me  when I found out I’m not allowed to do the 3 level 3 uni subjects I’m enrolled in yet and have been enjoying. insert lots of tears.

now have to settle with doing second year anatomy and picking a breadth subject and hopefully the uni allows me to appeal and do at least one level 3 subject.

breadth im currently tossing up are; the philosophy of mind, education wellbeing and performance, rebels and revolutionaries.

Only problem is I’ll be at least a week behind and what if I don’t like them or it’s too hard? I hate rules.

Help.!! I'm in high school, and apparently my class is meeting with our councilors . We're going to talk about classes we might possibly want to take next year. Any advice? I'm also not sure what colleges/universities pay attention too? Like what makes a student stand out and seem more interesting.,? I also want to take a few AP classes, but I'm not sure if that'd be a good idea?? (lol yeah I have a lot of questions...)

Hi there! Thank you for asking, but these are all personal choices? I can’t tell you what to study in life, so there’s not really much advice to give :L

What courses to take? Just choose what you like, or what you’re good at :)

What makes a student stand out more? Good grades and extracurricular activities :) It also depends on what uni you want to apply for.

Should you take AP classes? Only you know how well you’re coping with studies at the moment. Do it if you’re a high-achieving student. 

There’s not really anything else I can say unless you have a specific question. The talk with the counsellor is merely to help you decide on your personal choice. It’s not going to lock you into anything at this stage in time. 

Hope that’s clear :)

opinion on having ee2 as a 10th unit? is it too risky?

This...depends. Generally it is too risky, because the outside marking is fairly subjective, and a great E4 internal mark isn’t necessarily going to translate into a great E4 external mark. You want to have a buffer unit or two in case your MW goes down terribly. 

The thing is, I ended up on ten units with EE2 as one of them. This was only because I dropped French extension before the HSC exams, but at that stage I was pretty confident in my MW and had already weighed the pros and cons. 

So really, my advice would be to pick 11-12 units to have some back-up for your ATAR, and only drop down to 10 (including EE2) if you’re super confident in your MW or are really struggling in another subject.
