hmm, im just wondering, i wanna get into B Commerce @ UNSW ... cut off is 93.00

im just wondering, i have a great business studies mark (mid-to-high 90's) and i think i'll get b6 in the exam.
im just wondering whether they'll take that into account ... i THINK i might get 90+ .. but im not sure
Also, im pretty good at maths too ... hopin to get B6 in 2u,,

Would that increase my chances of getting into commerce? And what's the demand like for B Commerce @ UNSW ? is it higH?? =(



and one more thing, if i don't make it into commerce and do economics [researched and found that the first year stuff are pretty similar], would i have to RE-DO the first year of Commerce?

I doubt you'd have to redo any subjects, the courses are that similar.

Both have the exact same 6 cores for first year so yea I reckon (given you make the transfer) you could go straight from 1st year Eco to 2nd year Commerce.

I believe they take into account your UAI and the marks you get in the first year.

I want to do a double degree, but if i only get the UAI for one of the dregrees can i add the second one onto it while at uni?

Yeah, last I heard there's this thing called an NRSL (Non recent school leaver) cutoff (as opposed to a UAI cutoff). Dunno if that's still in tho, look around on UAC.
