[Supra]

hey guys my friend whos doin appfin/llb has encountered anotha problem whilst doing his timetable for sem2 1st year...as an appfin/law student(day) he has to do econ141 and law 104 in 2nd semester...

with the lecture 2 of econ141 its on thurs 4pm and thats hte only time available for this lecture 2

with the lecture 1 of law104, there is only one timeslot and it is also on thurs 4pm...
what is he to do?!?!

 

[GoodToGo]

He/She could do the ECON141 in first semester (evening class) and put one of his/her first semester subjects that are offered in both semesters to second sem.

Anyways, that degree has 9 first year units to do, you can only do 8. Maybe they can leave ECON141 till second year.

hang on ive got 9 subjects in 1st year as well, r u saying i have to do only 8 and do the other one insecond yr?Im following the actuarial recommended program tho and it involves 4 in 1st sem and 5 in 2nd sem

thanks 4 the help ill tell my friend

 

[GoodToGo]

Yeah. The standard full time load is 12 credit pts per semester and 14 is the maximum you can do without special permission. If you did 5 subjects you have 15 credit pts. Actuarial might be different, you guys might have a 2 credit pt unit...flyin' knows more about actuarial than me.

So in short, your friend does 8 of the 9 in their first year. If the completion of ECON141 is not a pre-requsite for anything second year I'd leave that till second year. Also, they might want to do ACST101 in first semester so he/she doesn't compete with the actuarial students.

actuarials are "special" people. they are allowed to follow the recommendation of 5 subjects in a subject in first yr.

 

[GoodToGo]

Yeah, they certainly are """"special"""" *cough cough*

He/She could do the ECON141 in first semester (evening class) .

Cannot be done as ECON110 and STAT170 are pre-req's for ECON141. Unless they do it in SM1 of the following year.

 

[redruM]

yeh dont worry i meant special in a totally retarded way

 

[flyin']

Yeah, they certainly are """"special"""" *cough cough*

*-)

Do the recommended (Actuarial) program, ie. 9 subjects in first year.

 

[golfstick]

i had the same problem, i had to enrol in the evening time for econ141 lecture 2

can't do it 1st semester as grizzly pointed out

 

[GoodToGo]

Cannot be done as ECON110 and STAT170 are pre-req's for ECON141. Unless they do it in SM1 of the following year.

Ahh. In that case, your friend should definately leave ECON141 till secod year. Not even sure why its got a 100-level designation with such pre-reqs.

I would enrol in both for sm2 2005, then go to the law104 lectures and skip the econ141 lectures

Who wants my 141 notes ? :uhhuh:

 

[Supra]

kool thanks soo much guys i dont think he can bring himself to skip a lecture grizzly

ill tell him that he shud do econ 141 in 2nd sem

 

[GoodToGo]

I would enrol in both for sm2 2005, then go to the law104 lectures and skip the econ141 lectures

But why would you encourage a first-year student to do 15 credit pts in a semester?!?

The academic advisors will tell you the same. From what I gather, the App Fin part of the AppFin LLB degree has a lighter load in 200-level units so it should be no problem squeezing it in there.
