Just wait until main round offers come out, pretty sure a thread will be posted up and those who have received offers will share their insights in what you should do

just do the core

Well you have to do MATH1151, a lot of people do ECON1101 and ACCT1501 too.
I recommend FINS1613 as well cos it introduces some important concepts and makes other courses easier.
Just don't do MGMT1001 unless you want a shitty mark.

But MGMT1001 is listed as compulsory... :/

Is that because MGMT1001 is hard itself?

Yes. Very few HDs. And if they were Ds, they would be low ones, ie <80

Yeah you're right it's a compulsory, but it's not a pre-requisite for other stuff. In other words, you don't restrict your options by avoiding mgmt1001.
tbh I've heard it's a really easy course in terms of content, but it's still difficult to achieve a good mark. MGMT1001 is a course that involves a lot of report and essay style assessments, which inherently involves subjective marking and is much harder to secure marks in.
Contrastingly, a subject like FINS1613 was literally ALL multiple choice when I did it, so even though the content was probably harder, it was easier to secure marks if you knew the material.
Although from what I've heard about you mreditor, you will HD any and every course you do

 

[gahyunkk]

But can we actually avoid MGMT1001 for whole uni year? or do we have to do it at the end?

Do it whenever unless you plan to major in management. Tbh i would do it first year unless you plan to transfer into another course if you don't want to deal with pesky first years.

Lol I'm planning to put it off as long as possible

uni friends have told me to get mgmt1001 out of the way, esp with units in first sem being relatively easy. so I am doing fins second sem, and first sem I am doing •ACCT1501 •ECON1101 •MATH1151 and •MGMT1001.

Also, lol, thanks motaba, not sure who you've been hearing these things from hahaha. For some reason, I get vibes that I actually know you.....

 

[gahyunkk]

Are we allowed to change it later after i enroll the classes now?

Hahaha I've just seen on some forum here that you demolished your hsc
But no, we don't know each other as I've never met anyone who's achieved your atar

yeah, you can change any course before the census date and not have to pay for it
