i have to select my subjects by friday and i have no idea what to do for my fifth

so far i'm absolutely certain on:

physics

earth and space

painting

chemistry

i vaguely wanted to take art history but not if i don't have any friends in it to discuss with. i absolutely hate english and i'm terrible at it too so i don't want to take that. my only other good option is sculpture which is an easy subject at my school. should i take something that gives reading or writing credits like art history or english or does it not matter ? which one would be better for uni, art history or sculpture ? i am planning to do geology at university of canterbury

school has decided to surprise us with a new internal 6 weeks before derived grades and i really want to get an excellence on it since i messed up my other two internals. does anyone have an excellence exemplar they would be willing to share with me that's not the nzqa one ? or can anyone offer advice on how to get excellence ?

is the l2 unfamiliar exam structured differently to the l1 exam? my teacher keeps saying it's just one question or something but that doesn't really make sense to me

is scholarship chemistry really difficult? i was thinking of doing it in level 3 but im not sure if it's a good idea since i'll also be doing chemistry, physics, earth and space, scholarship painting and art history as well

is it possible to do a scholarship exam, specifically earth and space, when my school doesn't offer it ? they do physics and chem but not ess 💔

i'm in year 12 and currently deciding which 5 subjects to take in level 3 and i have one more to pick but i have to clue what to take 😭 my four chosen subjects are chemistry, earth and space science, painting and art history. i can't do physics or english because they're torture for me. i was thinking about design because my friends take it and it sounds like something i would be good at, but i didn't take it this year so i don't know how to use the software and i'm unsure how big the workload is. i'm aiming to go to university and focus on earth science and possibly fine arts btw

help do you have to round to sf to get the questions right in the externals i can't figure out how to do it 😭😭
