So I e-mailed the friendly staff at Monash University and recieved this reply.
Dear Costa
To meet the Math requirements, you must complete one of two units in the Faculty Science.
MTH1010 or MTH1020. Both these units meet the Math requirements for entry to Clayton based BusEco degrees.
MTH1010 is only offered in semester 1 and is a prerequisite for MTH1020 so you will need to plan your enrolment carefully to be enrolled in MTH1010 in semester 1 of next year. If you pass the unit, you will meet the Math requirements. [for consideration for transfer into Commerce]

I don't think I would do THAT bad at this subject. I could even get a Credit if I really tried. Out of all areas in the methods course besides probability, this would be one of my best (like 40% in methods lol) but yeh I'm happy. I feel like I can do this now =)
The only bit that scares me is this "...rates of change" .
No matter how many times I tried to get my head around this I could never understand that DV/DT bullshit
Also, this subject is at Monash Clayton, am I allowed to do this subject? LOL. I know the answers yes but I want a bit more information. I heard there is a shuttle bus or something between the Uni's. Anyone got any information on it. Am I allowed to do another subject at Monash Clayton in Sem 1? Anyone know?
Costa.
"If I really tried" are the famous last words of a uni drop-out.
If you do this, you need to do this properly.
This is a second chance, and you need to respect the opportunity as such.
At university, you quickly learn that you only get out what you put in.
That said and out of the way Costa, if you DO put in the effort, I am confident you will pass (and have a good shot of something above said pass).
Now, as for all your questions! XD
* Monash has free shuttle buses running between Clayton and Caulfield/Berwick/Peninsula campuses. The Clayton/Caulfield shuttle bus (well, in actual fact there are two that run opposite each other) leaves every 25 minutes starting 7.30am and last bus 9.15pm. It's the last bus stop on the bus loop @ Clayton campus, and the bus stop near building B on Caulfield campus. You flash your ID card and you get on for free. I caught it last semester before I intermitted both in the morning and in the evening. The two regular bus drivers are old fashioned, really friendly, and cool ^_^
http://fsd.monash.edu.au/travel-parking/travel/inter-campus/2008-shuttle-bus-services* Yes, I'm quite sure you're allowed to take Clayton units even though it'd be your first semester at Caulfield. I'm not sure whether there's a cap on *how* many you can take cross-campus, apart from the BBus course requirement that 16 of your units in total be from BusEco @ Caulfield. Since you intend to transfer asap, I don't think it'll be too much of a problem. The danger, however, lies in the possibility of you *not* getting the transfer. You can take up to 8 units off-campus or not from BusEco. If you use all these units up in your first year by going to Clayton, then fail to transfer, you'll find yourself very restricted in your choices in years 2 and 3 of your degree. My advice is to (if you can) only do 1 or 2 subjects @ Clayton each semester next year (one of them obviously being MTH1010) and doing Caulfield the equivalents of the core BCom level 1 units.

Sidenote: They're making a Dandenong campus apparently >.> Any1 heard anything bout it?
