I have managed to timetable in four majors (Human Structure & Function, Physiology, Neuroscience and Pharmacology) for B.Sc. All criteria for major, subject prerequisites and course requirements are met in the timetable.
Timetable can be viewed here: http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/3886/nwe2.jpg
Has this ever been done? Would it be beneficial? Would it be hard? Its just four more level 3 subjects than the minimum. Should I do it? Tell me what you think. :)
-
You're in first year and you're planning a quadruple major? Okayy
It will be unrecognised by the university and won't really help you in job applications, depending on what you want to do. Do the subjects if you like them not because you want to do 4 majors
-
You'll find that the subjects start clashing by second year, and a lot in third year.
-
Looking at that is so confusing i can't tell what you have in mind to do in the future :P

Probably. NO. Duh. Erm... WtF?
-
If you want to do it then go for it, but definitely don't do it just for the sake of four "majors".

That's actually possible?!
-
Only one shows up on your degree so it's not recognised. I guess it could be helpful say on your resume by explaining you have 4 majors otherwise I don't see how it would be beneficial in comparison to the traditional 1 major. And think of the workload D:
-
3rd year subjects in Semester 1 of your 2nd year? Da fuq is up with that. I reckon choosing 2 is alright, but 4 is a bit much.

No. Two.
-
At Melbourne, it's only 1.
-
I can't see the timetable because I'm just on my phone but I didn't think that was possible! That's 200 level 3 Credit Points, am I correct!?
-
Nah, it's 125 points of Level 3
-
Oh really? I thought it my 2013 BSci handbook it had to major, you had to have 50 level 3 points?
Is it when you begin to double/triple that is reduces per major?
-
He's cross crediting subjects in order to have "4" majors. For example, if x,y,z,t are used for major 1, but also x,y,z are used for major 2, he's taking course q in order to complete "2" majors. There's no way you're going to be able to do 200 points of level 3 haha. Wayyy to many pre-reqs to complete.
-
Oh awesome. I get it now! Thanks.
Haha, yeah! That's what I was thinking! Unless he's like Hermione in Prisoner of Azkaban -_-

Yeah, I don't think it is possible unless you have permission because of the "progression requirement" that they have:
Progression: Students must normally complete 50 points of study at one subject year level before proceeding to the next subject year level.
-
Does cross crediting credit points even allowed for Melb uni? Cause in Monash once a unit counts towards a major, it won't be valid for a different one even if its part of that other major.

You are correct and that is the flaw I missed. I is officially impossible to timetable four majors (even if it doesn't count).
