[ Accounts + Arts + English Literature, 11 Subjects ]
That includes 'if' I take Commerce. Don't know if I should take it.
But, also don't wanna waste time doing something I'm not sure.
Teachers and parents said I should, but I'm not confident enough.
Should I just take it or not? ;A;

Welcome ! We are now 44 candidates-strong . But only a few are active .  blush.gif

Anyway , you're our very first Accounts student ! tongue.gif
11 subjects is considered the upper limit , for me . Do you take E.A as well ? Whether you can handle an extra subject or not depends solely on you , not yor parents and your teachers . I'd suggest that you not take it . Why ? You will not realise the workload for now . When the d-day comes , you'll definitely feel the heat . Especially during the trial exams . I would prefer doing well in only 10 subjects instead of being the jack of all trades , and the master of none .

Oh , and I registered for SPM , with my pure science subjects and E.A ! No more playing the fool with E.A . My goal is to finish all the chapters and start spamming past year papers .

Thank you smile.gif

E.A? No, I don't. Because there's Commerce. The problem is, I already made my decision on not to take it. That was the decision I've made since last year because the teaching method of last year's Commerce teacher was soooooo hard to understand. Even other students have difficulty understanding it. That is until this year when we got ourselves a good teacher. It was fun. But I still can't understand it. Is it because that I'm merely not interested in it or is it I'm understanding it in the wrong way? Nevertheless, I still stick to that decision. Even though they say that if there's something you're not interested in it, you have to. I wouldn't want to risk it. I mean, it's SPM. The crucial year of all. I'm tingling all over just thinking about it x_x Then there's this teacher willing to teach me thoroughly. She said try sitting for UK1 first. If I do that, then I'll have to face the consequences all to myself depending on how I do.

Well anyway, I'll see first. There're other things to worry about like Accounts. And of course, the addition of 2 subjects. I was wondering the best method to understand something. Like how you're taking E.A. It's almost the same as Commerce right? Correct me if I'm wrong biggrin.gif

P.S: I heard from a friend that if we don't sit for a certain paper on that day, it won't affect our SPM results?

Commerce , like E.A , Malay Literature , Geografi , they are all pretty straightforward . No challenging concepts to comprehend , if you compare them to the science subjects . So I guess it has to do with your disinterest towards the subject . If that's the case , then your problem is solved . Don't take it . I wouldn't take a subject that I'm not interested in , unless it's compulsory .

Just tell your teacher that you're not interested . Problem solve . This is the year where you'll need to have an aim , a clear direction . It's also a year where you need to get rid of distractions .

E.A is not the same as Commerce . Firstly , Commerce involves a lot of retention of facts . Whereas E.A revolves around rational understanding of human behaviours . Since in economics you assume that humans make decisions rationally , concepts are intuitive . In the exams , you just need to apply what you've learnt in the cases that are presented . Whereas for Commerce , the cases are aids to help you come up with the facts you've memorised . Also , E.A teaches analytic skills ( like science ) where you are required to draw graphs , come up with models , and do some simple calculations .

Yes , you can do that . But in your temporary 'penyataan sijil' , there will be a TH . So you wouldn't want to do that .

I guess it'll be risky taking something that you're not into it. I've already told my teacher of it and since there's no place for me to go during lesson, she said it'll be okay to just listen. It's not wrong to learn something unrelated to us, right? Unlike last year teacher who would throw me out of class just because I'm not taking it. It wasn't easy making that decision. It was even tougher telling that to the teacher, and whats more, she even blurted out in front of my class and talk bad about me including making me a bad example of running away from a challenge. Well, I knew what was coming from her agree-like behavior when I first told her. Guess I was right ;A;

Anyway, enough with the past. Problem solved biggrin.gif
