If you go to the link in my previous post and scroll down to Year 3, the list of electives are 12 CP Sem1 and 12 CP Sem2 adding to 24 CP of electives, not 18.You must complete 18 credit points (3 subjects) from Year 3 Recommended units(A/B). 12 credit points (2 subjects) must be be Year 3 Recommended A.
1 year has 48 credit points. 1 semester has 24 credit points (4 units of study/subjects * x credit points ea - x being what the unit of study is worth, which is generally 6 points with the exception of 3 point subjects)
Pretty straight forward?
Note: At least 18 credit points of Year 3 Recommended units of study must be completed across the year as a whole.If you go to the link in my previous post and scroll down to Year 3, the list of electives are 12 CP Sem1 and 12 CP Sem2 adding to 24 CP of electives, not 18.
I still don't get it.
Okay I think I get it, so "recommended elective" is the key word here, the remaining 6 CP can be done in a UoS outside the list of recommended electives?Note: At least 18 credit points of Year 3 Recommended units of study must be completed across the year as a whole.
You may also need to do another Year 3 recommended unit to meet the requirements for your major. So what they're saying is that you need 18 credit points from Y3 recommended units and for the other you may choose to do a Y3 Recommended unit or something else if you don't need the UoS for your major. Also those a general guidelines I believe; they're not gonna force to go down a specific path as long as you do the required credits and follow the course rule. Eg: If you manage to do the core subject (lets say INFO3402) during summer/winter school during your 3rd year, you may choose to do 3 Y3 recommended units (18 credits) in 1 semester if the rules allow.
What do you mean by this? Isn't that basically saying I can choose to do a non recommended elective and still be okay (since that is showing me the Information Systems major stream)?You may also need to do another Year 3 recommended unit to meet the requirements for your major.
Correct! However.. upon closer inspect of your degree rules (no offense to IT/ENG student but god CUSP is confusing) you may be expected to do it regardless. I assume you're doing B.IT? this is your rule book for your degree.Okay I think I get it, so "recommended elective" is the key word here, the remaining 6 CP can be done in a UoS outside the list of recommended electives?
According to my calculations, during your 3rd year and 4th year you would have completed 24 credit points which 3000-level and above for your cores (this encompasses 6CP-INFO3402, 6CP-ISYS3401, 12CP-INFO3600). So you need 60 more credit points (you have 72 credit points for Y3/Y4 electives during those 2 years) which are 3000-level and above and these come from your electives which are suggested in your Y3/4 Recommended Electives A/B2) To qualify for the award of the pass degree, a candidate must successfully complete 192 credit points, comprising:
(a) a minimum of 144 credit points of core and selected core units of study in the chosen stream; and
(b) 18 credit points of selected Mathematics and Statistics units, with at least six credit points at 2000-level or above; and
(c) 30 credit points of elective units of study;
(d) and ensuring:
(i) no more than 72 credit points in junior (1000-level) units of study, and
(ii) at least 84 credit points in 3000-level or above units of study
So don't I have room to add in a different elective if I so wanted?Correct! However.. upon closer inspect of your degree rules (no offense to IT/ENG student but god CUSP is confusing) you may be expected to do it regardless. I assume you're doing B.IT? this is your rule book for your degree.

This other link (If you download as PDF) states that:at least 84 credit points in 3000-level or above units of study.
Another point is that some of the resolutions do not state that the student requires 144CPs from core and selected cores while some others do...?at least 90 credit points from 3000-level and above units for single degree
