whos doing 200 levels in first year (1 Viewer)

[symo]

as the post says anyone doing them, saw someones proposed timetable and it had one 200 level in it. i cant, cant even do all my 100 levels in first year (damn 14 credit limit), obviously some 200 levels its stupid to do in first year ie microeconomic analysis (ECON200) with ECON111 mirco principles.

100 level means 1st year
200 level means 2nd year

... and im laughing at u
That doesnt necessarily mean 100 level = first year, 200 level = 2nd year etc..
You can do several 200 level units in your first Like ELEC266, which only needs 12cp.

yeah, some 200 levels don't have prereqs.

i am considering one, but it has a research component, and seems harder than all the other subjects i have to do. i think it might be a bit of a shock for me after doing no work, and trying to get used to uni

i think i will just do it next year, even though it seems so interesting and i really want to do it now!

and if you have done languages in hsc, you go straight to the 200 level.

A couple of my friends after one semester satisfied the pre-req for 200-levels.

So they did 2 x 200-level 4 pt units and a 100-level 3pt unit in the second semester. That way they did 11 credit pts and only 3 subjects.

You are supposed to do Econ 100 level first before doing Econ 200 so they make it clash as they don't see any problem since you need 100 level prerequisite to do Econ 200

 

[symo]

yeah i know to do econ100s before econ200s but theres a couple random core 200s that doesnt look like you would need a 100 level knowledge ie BUSL250 business law. not that im doin it cause im already chosen 12 credits for each semester

100 level doesn't mean you have to do them in your first year. Levels just mean the difficulty/easiness of the unit.

The way i see it though it 100 level teaches you the basics/fundamentals. 200 level brings on more advanced topics of the same thing whilst 300 level you get the real deal subjects, most industry relevant material.

so on that note, do you advise against 200 levels in first semester? do you feel first years don't have the skills yet?

Well you'd be hard pressed to find a 200 level unit that you'll satisfy the credit points in first semester. Find me one and i shall answer the rest of your question. They have at least the requirement of 12 credit points.

 

[iambored]

the ones with no prerequisites? and i have to do 12cp in first semester. i will find one when i have my handbook with me.

 

[Rahul]

so you can take up a 200-level subject in the second semester?
news to me.

 

[iambored]

if it has no prerequisites, or you satisfy them, yes.

and does 12cp mean you have to have already done 12cp, as it's not a co equisite

edit - MUS230 African Drumming has no prereqs

Yes 12 credit points means you must at least passes or higher in 12 credit points.
Ah there you go you can enrol in MUS230 : ) Looks interesting too.

 

[Rahul]

lol @ MUS230

my question is that can you put a 200-level subject in for your second semester. i would be doing 12 or 14 CPs in first semester and hoping at least a pass in them

 

[iambored]

lol!

and you said you would answer the question when i gave an example

i'm pretty sure you can put one in as second semester, i don't see why not

 

[Majesty]

Answer would be yes, you can 200 level subejct in your first semester. Nothing is stopping you as long as you meet the pre-requisites.

Actuarials do ACST211 in first year, second semester. So it's possible.
