Okay, I'm doing BCom., BSc. at the moment and anyone taking this course will know that there is the opportunity to not do ECMT1010 and instead do MATH 1005/1015/1905 to satisfy minimum mathematics requirements in the Science degree. According to the faculty handbook and online it states that:
"*Please Note: Students who complete MATH 1005/MATH 1015/MATH 1905 and an additional junior MATH unit are not required to complete Business and Economic Statistics A (ECMT1010) but must replace this unit with another junior unit of their choice from the Faculty of Economics and Business. However, students who intend to undertake a major in Econometrics should study ECMT1010 and choose alternative MATH unit options to meet the requirements of the Science component of their degree."

So my question is, what if I intend to do a Commerce major which is NOT Econometrics but requires EMCT1010 as a compulsory unit of study (e.g. Accounting or Finance) and at the same time I wish to do a Science major in something that requires MATH 1005/1015/1905 (e.g. Financial Mathematics or just Mathematics)?

Given that I'm not allowed to do both junior units of study, does that mean I can never take certain Commerce-Science major combinations such as Accounting and Financial Mathematics? Or do they allow MATH 1005/1015/1905 as an acceptable alternative to ECMT1010 to complete such majors?

Also, what's the maximum number of junior credit points that are allowed in this course? If I decide to major in something that requires more than one extra junior unit other than the core units, then these "additional" junior units are permitted right?

True as jfk said...

However, do note that certain CPA and CA certifications require ECMT1010. And other uni courses require ECMT1020. So you might need to do some ECMT at one stage or an other.
