Hey guys,

Just after some advice

I'm going to be studying business this year with a major of HR. The problem is though that I didn't do Business Management or anything similar to that as a VCE subject. These subjects weren't listed as prerequisites however I have a feeling that a lot of the other students would have completed this subject. I regret not doing it now but when I was choosing my subjects I was leaning towards the Journalism path and it wasn't til late April that I decided this would be a better way to go.

Do you think I will be far behind other students? Should I buy the Units 3&4 Business Management book and read it/write up some notes?

I don't want to be behind everyone before the course has even got going!

no you won't be behind. it's not even a prereq. don't worry. BM is mostly fluff so don't worry.

Hehe, don't worry, if it wasn't a prerequisite subject, you will most likely learn part of it at the beginning of the course... have you looked at the course outline? maybe you wont even cover business management

Odette it does an 'Organisation and Management' unit. I guess it would come under that!

Thanks for your help guys!

Hmm I think you will more likely end up learning about other aspects of management anyway... so you don't really need to have studied business management 3+4(corporate management)... If you are really worried about it then you can take a look at the notes i posted in the business management forum =)

Good Luck ^_^

Don't worry Sliverbullet. Business management is mainly common sense, it's REALLY easy to grasp

That's why I love this forum so much, everyone is sooo kind!
