I haven't done VCE chem but say if i chose Master of Biomolecular engineering it requires 25 units of chemistry.

Can this be Fundamentals Chemistry and Chemistry 1 or does it have to be Chem 1 and 2.


thanks:D

If you haven't done VCE chem you must take fundamentals of chem, depending on your marks you will either progress to complete chem 1 or 2

Pretty sure fundamentals + chem1 would be okay, they're both first year subjects. That said, I think you should be doing more than the base amount of chemistry if you want to do biomolecular engineering, chem2 will help you there

Doesn't really matter. You shouldn't be looking to get past prerequisites on technicalities: if you attempt to study any biomolecular engineering without having done chem 2, you'll fail spectacularly. :P
