I'm doing law/arts majoring in politics. I think it's too late to change units anyway, because I hit enrol but anytime I tried to substitute one of the suggested people/planet units in the first session with another one of the blue highlighted law units, it didn't allow me to enrol because I hadn't met the prerequisites.
So when selecting a class for a particular elective, it doesn't make too much a difference, content wise, whether I opt for either a lecture or a tutorial? Or do I need to select one of either/would it be more optimal for me to do so?
You can change units right up until the Census date, which is a few weeks into semester.
If you haven't already seen, this is your handbook for your degree.

The handbook tells you all the units you are required to take or choose from, and also sets out other requirements (such as you must complete a major in full, you must have a certain number of credit points at a 200 level or above etc.)
Now i'm guessing you are trying to enrol in either Laws108 or Laws104. These both have Laws115 as a prerequisite. So in your first semester, you should enrol into Laws115 in order to do these two later. Seeing if something has a prereq is really easy on the handbook page. Either hover over the unit name, or you can click into it.
Prerequisites: must be completed before you can enrol into a unit
Corequisites: mean you can take the unit and its matching one at the same time
NCCW(s): Mean you can not take the unit you are looking at and the one that is listed there. Essentially they are either old versions of a unit, or the content is too similar.
Anyway as I said, you can continue changing units right up until. In eStudent go to "My Enrolment" and select "Withdraw from Units" on the left hand side. Then you can go back to "Enrol in Units" and choose what you want.
Finally, you need to attend both lecturers AND tutorials/practicals. Usually you will be forced to select at least one of each. Some units will have multiple different lectures and tutorials a week, in which case you will be prompted to select more. If you hover over a specific lecture or tutorial, it will highlight any that are the same. There is also a little counter at the top that will say 3/4 classes enrolled or something similar.
Some classes will have attendance requirements (These are set out in the unit guides, but those haven't been released yet). You may not have to attend lectures, but you may need to attend at least 8/11 tutorials for instance.
