Firstly welcome to Macquarie! What degree/major are you doing?

Last year enrollment into subjects didn't fully open until
Session 1 20198am on 5 December 2018

So you are unlikely to be able to make any subject selections until around then. I suggest waiting until you finish HSC, and then planning your units that you will undertake during year degree.

Better late than never.

I started my Juris Doctor last semester and did:

- LAW600 - Foundations (Passed)
- LAW802 - Crime (70)
- LAW803 - Contracts (76)

Mediocre marks but decent given I was working 12+ hour days during the semester and decided I would do FIN for CA at the same time (which I found really hard). Yeah, that was not a smart move.

I genuinely thought I was going to fail FIN. Thank God I did not. Got 73 and I am not sure how that happened. Anyway, I have Capstone and then I'm done!

This semester I am doing:

- CA Capstone
- First unit of the ARITA Advanced Certification (short course through UTS for work)
- Property Law for my JD

I think I have really come to terms with being a super mediocre student. I love working way too much to ever focus purely on studying (plus I am a procrastinator from way back, so better than I am busy) and I am notorious for spreading myself too thin anyway! I think this semester will be fine - the units I am seen OK and there is no doubt as to whether or not I will pass - moreso, by how much.

How is everyone doing anyway?

Hmm I think we might have a different definition of mediocre! Given you are working full time and doing Uni/CA on top and still passing doing/well.

I”m doing alright. Currently surviving audit busy season. Should be starting CA next trimester :)
