From what i can remember....

intro calc was shit as! wayyy too broad and has pretty much nothing to do with AM, but AM is well worth doing so do ic. Physics was good, chem didnt do, econs the same and english ...well, need i say anything but pointless!

Hey eveyone,

I've just been choosing my subjects and was seeing what your experiences where with Intro Calc, Physics, Chem, Econs & English in year 11/12.

Just trying to get a feel for what they involve etc.

Cheers,

Charlie

hey Charlie,

I did Chem, Physics, Econs, English, Intro Calc and Gnt in yr11 and

Physics, Econs, English, Disc Maths, Applica Maths.

All depends what you want to do after you finish year 12, i think its best to keep your options opens.

Physics i didnt find that hard

Econs Was pretty piss easy

English, meh i didnt like it :)

Chem, meh i never study so i got like 45% in yr11, so drop it in yr12 (just study and you will be fine, i didnt so failed)

Intro Calcu, yeah wasnt too bad, just do your homework and you should be right

Remember enjoy yr11 and 12, they are some of the best years of your life, once you out of highschool, the world becomes all different :)

Rofl :)

Cheers Michael

economics is great .. helps you understand the economy and i found it very interesting.. i also found it easy i got around 80% for it..

i also did calc, applicable, englsih, physics and info sys

if ur going for engineering physics is a must as in calc.. i found calc easier than applicable also

I didnt do year 12, and only 1/2 of year 11. So i cant help you with which subjects will suck and which ones dont. But as i can rember from before that, I liked some subjects that others did not, so why you asking?

Anyways, im going to tell you what i told my younger sister (she did not listen though... but she usually doesnt)...

First off, find out what subjects you have to do for the career you want. If you have not decided what you want to do, ask your career adviser what subjects you can do that will get you into most tafe or uni courses. Then, thats what you do. You may as well drop out of high school if you just want to do subjects because they sound fun or you like. Throw in a few that you like to keep you motivated and balance that with the ones that dont sound so interesting.

Rember though, that there is always a back door into anything (pretty much). So if highschool doesnt work out for you, there are other ways. Like me, left in year 11, but im at uni. I preffered the road i took. But its an individual thing. Good luck.

I did Intro, G&T, Physics, English, Chinese and a nonTEE subject (and similar for yr 12, ie replace IC and GT with Applic and Calc) so i hit half your targets there, but that was 5 yrs ago. =/

IC is piss. Physics is pretty hard. I've never liked English but you have to pass it.

it all depends on your plans for after school.

but as someone said, really important to enjoy those two years, especially year 12. you will look back a few years later and realise how much your life has changed and it will never be like that again.

TAKE my advice and do g&t and intro, since yr 12 is all that matters and i found that calc was WAYYYYYY easier than applic, i wish i had done calc. revised yr 12 clac in 2 weeks for uni.

econs is easy if u understand things and have a wholistic approach, physics f**ked me over as well as chem but those subjects requires study which i didnt do :)

gluck for ur studies dude

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
