I did macro this sem. Alot more challenging than micro and more interesting as well. Lots to study for the exam.
What are you planning to major in? If you're not going to major in Accounting, you won't need financial accounting. Leave Bus Law for later on (its pretty hard) and maybe do ETC1010 or MKC1200 in its position.

Your combination of subjects is strange. It looks like you don't know which major you want atm. I suggest trying to clear the core subjects, so that you know what you want to major in.
For example, there's no point in taking Accounting subjects if you are planning on majoring in Marketing.

What are you majoring in..?

[kakar0t]

You guys are right, i'm quite unsure what to major in. The plan originally was accounting/finance so I may as well stick to it.

If you don't know what to major in yet, then do all the compulsory 1st year units. That includes business law. You have to do it at some point, and you're better off doing it when you've only got other 1st year units to worry about, rather than more difficult 2nd or 3rd year units.

Or he/she could combine Bus Law with the next level of first year units. Eg. with ETC1010, ECC1100 + MKC1200  etc.

would it be better to do business law in first year, and then micro in second (or the other way around) - fiddling with my timetable right now

[mystikal]

depends which combination of subjects

Usually, its better to do easier subject during 1st semester - you are still settling in, find your way around, making new friends etc. Easier subjects in sem1 just take the pressure off.

From then onwards, balance out the hard with easy subjects. 2 easy, 2 challenging.

TIP: you don't want to be in your 3rd year doing all 3rd year units so maybe save an elective or two for final year.

depends which combination of subjects

I am doing Intro to Accounting and Finance, Psych B, Professional Writing and debating between Business Law or Micro
(was planing to do Business Stats but it had a big crash with prof writing)

seeing in your sig that you havent done accounting before i suggest leaving bizz law for later as accounting is kinda annoyin without any background knowledge.
