Melbourne Commerce entry, subject choices?

You can hide this advertisement by registering.
I'm looking at getting into Melbourne University Commerce, which requires

ENTER score of 95.2
Study score of 25 in Units 3 & 4 Maths Methods
Study score of 30 in Units 3 and 4 English as a Second Language

I'm taking up the following unit 3 & 4 subjects next year:

Accounting
Business Management
Economics
English as a Second Language (ESL)
Maths Methods

I'm doing really well in Accounting, Business Management, Economics and ESL with an A+ average in both SACs and Exams, but I'm only doing Maths Methods because it's a pre-requisite subject, and I'm only getting a C+ to B- average in Methods.

What are my chances of getting the 95.2 ENTER with these subjects? Have any of you guys taken up these subjects or plan to take up these subjects next year?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Dru

Re: Melbourne Commerce entry, subject choices?

Your might struggle because all those subjects (besides methods) get scaled down..

Your doing ESL, your an international student? that means you can pay full fee and you will only need an ENTER of 92 or something

actually thats wrong. business management is the only one that gets scaled down. ESL doesnt get scaled, eco goes up by 2 and accounting goes up by 1.

also dangerrabbit, you have a good chance of getting 95+ with those sac and exam marks (which are A+) just make sure that u get above the prerequisite score for methods and u should be sweet.

Feeling uneasy about your subject choices as well? I guess as long as you are really good at at least four of the five subjects you choose, you should be fine.

Re: Melbourne Commerce entry, subject choices?

Mm me too, all year I've been averaging 50% in Methods.
With a private tutor (and possibly group tuition too) next year, hopefully I'll be able to bring up my scores, especially considering Methods is my only really 'difficult' subject (for me) so I'll be able to focus on it heaps. Aiming for 30 study score =/
