VCE maths selection HELP !!!

G

do u think I should do methods, specialist and general ( btw my other subjects are french, chemistry and idk between English lit ot lan)
OR - my other option is
methods, specialist and biology ( replace gen with bio, and the same subjects - french, chemistry and idk between English lit ot lan)
but I'm stuck, because biology has sooo much memorisation and scales down sometimes depending on the cohort, but if I take general, if I do bad in one of the maths, only two will be considered and if I do one bad, then everything will go DOWNHILL......

G what do u wanna do in the future? even tho bio can scale down if you're aiming for medicine its the pretty obvious choice. however even if its another career path where bio is not required, it seems a bit excessive to do all 3 math subjects, so i would personally swap it out for one that is at least somewhat germane to my chosen occupation

mhsbandar BIO SCALES DOWN WHAT???????

mhsbandar

KingYen just double checked and no it does not scale down, sorry I was just going off the info the guy was saying. that being said it BARELY scales

KingYen

mhsbandar oh i see. Eh I don't mind the minimal scaling

G

KingYen
no, it depends on the cohort and how well or bad the rest of the cohort does and that affects your scaling. Usually it scales down by 1 or 2, but might barely scale ( 1 or 2 ).

NOTE : idk if the cohort has to do good for it to scale up or bad for it to scale up.

KingYen

G It shouldn't matter too much for me. I just gotta get good marks

mhsbandar

G i'd assume they'd have to do good, as a good score in a bad cohort could be a mid score in a good cohort, so they'd scale up to make it fair
