Title: Simulataeous VCE and Uni?
Post by: dekoyl on August 18, 2009, 04:39:02 am
This is absurd.. but is it possible to do a subject or two in VCE whilst attending university (hence possibly boosting/meeting the requirements for a course) and to transfer after the first year?
I'm just wondering about the flexibility.

Thanks.

If you don't meet requirements (subject wise), you would normally do bridging courses which are the equivalent VCE level subjects either at the Uni or a TAFE.

The only catch is that you'll be doing a whole year's worth of a subject in usually one semester.  For example, the Spesh bridging course at UoM.  You do pretty much the entire VCE course in one semester.

There's no reason why you couldn't, at CAE or whatever.

I'm wondering whether this would affect your ability to apply as a CY12 given that you have already begun another course?

I was just wondering pretend in 10 years time u wnat to go to Uni or lets say 15 years time. What if you havent done a prerequisite subject, but u got a really good ENTER.
1= does ur ENETR sitll get sued in 10-15 times (seeing that the level/ur rank would have changed so much it doesn't make sense if it is)
2= can u do THAT prerequisite at TAFE whilst attending the Uni? How long does it take? Do you do for example "maths methods" for 1 whole year? or how does it work

thx, im just interested.

I think in 10-15 years time you will forget your ENTER score, the subjects you did, and no one will mention it ever again.

You would enter as a mature age student.
As for prerequisites, in 10-15 years you would've forgotten the content anyway.
