Hi law students at Macquarie Uni,

I did a year at UWS B.Business/B.Laws and now has accepted my offer to do B.Commerce/B.Laws at Macq Uni.

I was just wondering whether those first year units at UWS can be accepted at Macq, so I don't have to do it again. Is there any law units that ex-UWS law student need to do? Or we are qualified for exemptions and only need to do 2nd year Macq units.


At UWS, I did:

Law Units:
- Introduction to Law
- Torts Law
- Foundations to Law
- Criminal Law

Business Units:
- Business Academic Skills
- Accounting Infomation for Managers
- Economics Principles
- Marketing Principles

You should get exemptions for all four first year law units you did at UWS. I did at the beginning of last year, and went straight into Contracts and Law, Lawyers and Society for first semester. Havn't got a clue about business though.

You'll get credit for most of it, you might have to do crim again because they do crim procedure with crim. Business I am nor sure about.

For Business units you've done u shud get exemptions for:
Marketing- MKTG101 (Marketing fundamentals) @ macquarie
Economic Principles- at macq we do macro and micro separate in first, so its possible u cud get exemptions for both.
Accounting informaiton for managers- ACCG100 (Accounting 1A) @ macquarie
oh and theres no subject @ macquarie related to business academic skills.

hey I am in the same boat.

I did the same units u did and am transfering to macq.

Would be good to keep in contact i pm'd u .


I'll be happy if i get 5/8 units i did recognised... as Business Academic Skills is not taught at any other uni in NSW....

as to the person above, thank christ macq doesn't do business academic skills, terrible unit, pointless, marked very harshly, incredibly SHIT subject....
