    Tossing up between different degrees! Need some clarifications

    No worries, Macquarie is actually quite flexible so you can "mix and match" and create lots of combinations - but if you do this, always get some academic advice to plan your program ahead. Good luck, IT and Commerce is actually a really good combo.

    Bcom/Bec

    You can't do a B Commerce with B Economics at Macquarie, you can only do them concurrently or alternatively, to do a double major in the B Commerce if you want to explore different specialisations. Here's a list of all the doubles that can be done with the B Economics or the B Commerce. Edit...

    Tossing up between different degrees! Need some clarifications

    Agree with AsyLum that the degrees seem a bit different... What kind of job or industry do you want to get into? If you want to do accounting as well as IT - you can consider doing a double major in B Commerce with Business Information Systems and Accounting. As for the choice between the...

    Commerce @ Macq - How can I PREPARE for this course?

    STAT170 shouldn't be too difficult if you attend the lectures/practicals etc, and if you need help, go to the numeracy centre. STAT170's assessment structure is designed to let students get the highest mark possible. For STAT170 - the most useful resource will be the course notes which change...

    ACCG252/AFIN252 Applied Financial Analysis & Management

    Can't compare since I don't know Chen or de Mello. But Lindsay Stubbs is awesome! Definitely worth attending his lectures/tutorials :)

    anyone knows bout fobe 302

    I haven't done FOBE302, but here is a copy of the unit outline from 2010 semester 2 You can find the assessments in the outline, but beware that a) units change and b) summmer courses are more condensed. And yes, BESS will be re-opened today, so you can give them a call to see if they can put...

    Commerce @ Macq - How can I PREPARE for this course?

    Which stat unit? Microeconomics isn't too bad, it's mainly graphs and basic maths with a bit of theory.

    Majors and Minors:

    Which degree program are you studying? Double majors should be possible, but it may take you longer to complete the degree - when you enrol in your units in the beginning, they will give you academic advice and help you to plan out your study program. For example, in the Bachelor of Commerce...

    Macquarie uni gym

    Look out for membership deals - they sometimes offer discounted memberships at certain times of the year, or if you join with someone else.

    B Medical Sciences at Maquarie

    Not a B Medical Sciences student myself so I can't say how many days a week from experience. But, if you go online and work out which units and classes you do, you can work out how many days you will need to be at uni - just go to "All units" on the side, choose which unit/s you want, pick "all...

    Any questions about the Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Laws welcomed here.

    There is no Information Systems major in the Bachelor of Commerce. You can find a list of the majors available here: http://www.courses.mq.edu.au/2012/Undergraduate/Degree/Bachelor+of+Commerce#WhatYouWillStudy For the Economics major, you can visit this page and click on the individual unit...

    Bachelor of International Studies with the degree of Bachelor of Laws

    There aren't really any reliable comments on the ranking between universities or reputation - especially when reputation can be a subjective thing. If you are looking to pursue a career in international law, beware that it is very competitive. Obviously, regardless of which degree you do or...

    Session 3 (Summer School)

    No worries, I was surprised that I still had a copy of the guide :) I agree with andyfg88 - uploading slides is pretty standard and using that as a means to blackmail students into going to the physical lecture is just plainly foolish considering the number of students that juggle their studies...

    LAW electives

    The worst part about bean bags is getting up at the end of class - hilarious watching all these young fit twenty-somethings groan as they try to get up... Personally, if you are interested in Health law - pick up a health law book and have a read to see which area you like - the unit doesn't...

    LAW electives

    Health Law: +1, the assessments are difficult to understand or gauge what is required of you. And the beanbags won't be a feature the second time round since he has mentioned that he wants to experiment with delivering the unit with lots of technology e.g. new C5C forum. MULS guide - here it...

    LAW electives

    Niloufer's assessment structures are quite fair, overall, the mark you get will reflect the effort you put into the unit. IT Law is technical, but not to the extent that it will require someone doing an IT degree to understand it - the main challenge is the legal aspect not the IT content.

    Session 3 (Summer School)

    WOW... you really don't demand very much from your lecturer/tutor.
