im a b commerce 1st year rite, and today i finally decided that qma just wasnt for me, i had no clue in it which was evident during my first tutorial. so anywayz, i went to get advice on what to do at the commerce faculty and whether the bridging course was a good idea. this chick told me that the bridging course was closed for this semester and i would have to do it second semester. so i go well what do i do now, and shes like just drop qma and pick up something else. and im thinking, but isnt qma a core subject, why wud i be able to drop it, but me the stupid fuck didnt even ask. so i went on a computer on the side and swapped qma for management but it said i cant bcoz i needed it for a corequisite which was fins1612, so then, i had to drop that also and pick up marketing to which i find that course to be quite meaningless. my dreams have been shattered, i have no idea what ive gotten myself into. first of all, id have to catch up on 2 weeks work for both marketing and management. secondly i was really hoping to major in finance bcoz i found it interesting and quite easy, and finally i have no idea whether id still have to do qma later on since its a core subject, meaning id have to stay at uni for an extra year or something. ive seriously lost the plot. what ive written probly doesnt even make sense but hopefully some1 wud get me and reply lol oh dear there is no god.

Don't panic, check that your tutes are either full or stopped enrolling here

As I suspect most have.

Next make sure you have a copy of your timetable, the one with your classes as they were for both fins1612 and econ1202, in all probability you wont be off the rolls either.

Tommorow you'll have to visit both the finance and economics school offices in order to get your tutes and lectures back. Make sure you explain very clearly what you did and if they're still dismissive get them to check the rolls and enrol you back manually if needed.

As a finality you may want to discuss whether you can stay in fins1612 without having to enrol back qma, if thats your goal visit the school of finance first, because there is an absolute bare minimum if any qma in fins1612, if you're lucky they'll give you an exemption. If not just enrol them both.

ive heard quite a few people who seemed pretty lost after lectures/tutes. try just reading ahead since some lecturers might assume you already get most of it.
