The HSC subject 8000 students dumped last year

Over 8000 students abandoned advanced mathematics in last year's Higher School Certificate, with one-third dropping the course between years 11 and 12. This decline raises concerns despite calls for a stronger graduate workforce in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Education experts attribute the drop to misaligned course selection influenced by parents rather than student capabilities.
