what are the instances in which you will be allowed to do 5 units, one of which is on another campus? Do you just prove you can carry the workload?

I've never got a mark over a credit, so you don't need high marks to be able to do 5 subjects, and I'm doing 5 subjects this semester.

You basically just need your course co - ordinators permission.

well, truthfully, it does look bad as they usually allow you to do more than 4 if you prove you are capable, that is getting P's at least. Nothing to lose in asking your course co-ordinator however.

I dunno. Will your transcript say fail on it?

The only problem with doing 5 subjects is only time management, all the assignments are due at the same time. So you may find you are putting less effort into some subjects to compared others.


Also, you only need to repeat the subject if it was a core.
