Consider the following when choosing your elective subjects:

What subjects sound interesting and I think I would like to try before I get to year 11 and 12?
Have I considered my future learning pathways eg. university, TAFE or Work?

Should I choose certain subjects that may relate to my career aspirations and my strengths?
