And my general tip is that since so much of 1st-3rd yr is biblical studies, focus on Christian thought in 4th yr in order to integrate (so don't do both NT & OT or Christology).
I guess it's a matter of whether you play to your strengths or try to work on your weaknesses. Looks like you've gone for the former. Fair enough. I just wonder whether the weakness in CT extends beyond a few individuals to characterise much of Sydney Anglicanism (and whether this mightn't be the result of years of BS>CT at MTC).

good point. It is something that I have discussed with a few lecturers last year. When it comes down to it, I find that I enjoy talking CT, but when it comes to writing essays, there is an inverse formula in play. ie, I can talk it, but not write it! (I think that has a bit to do with learning styles also!!)
I am a daughter and a sister. I have a miniature dachshund named Suki. I like floating balloons and pushing buttons. I am not a student but read almost as much as when I was. I am an Anglican minister at a church in the inner west of Sydney.

Ahh Byron, but we are all so different. CT subjects and I are really not a good combination. I love them, but struggle.
Option 1 - Christology and Social Ethics (both in Semester 1)
Option 2 - Social Ethics (Semester 1) and Apologetics (Semester 2)
I would like to do MTT. I think I will prob put it down to audit.
