Did you buy the red handbook?
Did you seach the online handbook?
Did you do anything which would befit something other than sitting on your ass and getting others to do it for you?
Did you do a search on this forum about commerce threads?

Yes, it's all in front of me. The online handbook is confusing and not much help. All the commerce threads are about UNSW/UTS/USYD.

I only got into BCom not BCom-Accounting. Is it the same structure?

In that case, go to the B Comm (Accg)

You have to complete :

At least 12 credit points chosen from ACCG310, ACCG329, ACCG330, ACCG340, ACCG350, ACCG352, ACCG353, ACCG355 and where 3 of the 12 credit points may be chosen from BUSL301, BUSL320

These are 3rd year units, which mean they'll have pre-requisites, find the unit here and look at the pre-requisites and work backwards.

But I find it stupid to major in accounting with no CA/CPA qualification.
By the way, I have PMed you.

I'm not interested in transferring as I know I won't be guarranteed a spot in BCom-Accounting. I am also interested in Business Law & Economics. Is there any kind of structures given like the BCom-Accounting one?

No, its not a 'structured' degree with accreditation, so like i said previously, work backwards.

And don't complain about 'not being offered a place' and how its 'stupid' that B Comm (Accg) isnt accredited, if you worked harder, perhaps you could've gotten into the fucking degree you wanted

86.30 is hardly taxing, since the B Comm is 85

1st year Bcom accounting is very similar to a B com one. If u do B Comm, u can chopse all the units a B com accounting student does,

ACCG100
ACCG101
ECON110
ECON111
STAT170
ISYS123
ECON141
ACST101

Just choose those,

There should be absoluletly no problem for transfering, unless u are really struggling

I remember reading somewhere that if you fail a certain amount of subjects/credit points then you arent elible for CA/CPA?

not too sure about that.

but what does happen is that you can get kicked out of your (accredited) degree.

also, you have to pass the subjects, not just conceded passes. this is definately the case for ca, not 100% sure about cpa.
