Failed Subject first time.. PC the second. OPtions? (1 Viewer)

[Monstar]

hey alll..


i got a fail for the first time i did the unit.. and then i got a PC the second time.

IS there any options available to me that can avoid me doing this unit a 3rdtime?

 

[xeuyrawp]

How's anyone supposed to help you when you don't give your degree, the subject, other relevant info, etc etc? You know the drill man...

 

[Monstar]

Ok.

I do a accounting degree. The subject is accg1b. Is there any viable avenues that can make me avoid doing this subject again?

plz.

Prerequisites: [ACCG105(P) or ACCG101(P) or (ACCG100(P) and ACCG101)] or [ACCG105 and BBA103 and 30cp] and ACCG200

?



My interpretation:


Chose one of the following options:

OPTION 1:
ACCG105(P),
or ACCG101(P),
or both ACCG100(P) and ACCG101,
and ACCG200.

OPTION2:
ACCG105,
BBA103,
30cp,
and ACCG200.



Does that help?

 

[Monstar]

sigh.. i thought it was pass the 100 and PC 101...

thanks man.

 

[xeuyrawp]

No probs. I hope it works out for you.

 

[*hopeful*]

similar question :

i got my 1st PC in 5 yrs but will this prevent me from being able to enrol in this subject:

(ACCG100 or ACCG105) and (ECON111 or BBA103) and (STAT170 or STAT171) and ACST101 and (27cp or GPA of 2.00)

as it doesnt specify the (P) anywhere will my crappy PC be enough ?

 

[Skittled]

...Does that help?

...if (P) isn't specified, a PC should be sufficient to meet the prereq's (unless other rules are hidden away somewhere other than the handbook.)

So:

(ACCG100 or ACCG105) and (ECON111 or BBA103) and (STAT170 or STAT171) and ACST101 and (27cp or GPA of 2.00)

as it doesnt specify the (P) anywhere will my crappy PC be enough ?

Hopeful: Yep, should be fine (assuming the handbook's correct).

Monstar, I recommend you try to enrol in it nonetheless, and/or seek academic advice if you're unsure how to proceed from here. ACCG1b (whatever the unit code is) may be pretty critical for OTHER subjects in the future of your degree. Get Ac. Advice.

Edit: For the record, my interpretation of the badly written handbook is:
Prerequisites: [ACCG105(P) or ACCG101(P) or (ACCG100(P) and ACCG101)] or [ACCG105 and BBA103 and 30cp] and ACCG200

Choose one of the reddy-coloured (i.e. ONE OF either the magenta, pink, red, or dark red), AND complete (with any grade) Accg200.

Yeah i went to see Bill Blair.. He gave me some sound advice, and i will be enrolling in 1b again.....

[Skittled]

Ah. Is tht becuase you have to, or because he recommended it? Bill's a good guy and very switched on, but he might be recommending rather than requiring: (i.e. "you'll have to have a good grasp of ACCG1b concepts if you want to do well in future subjects, and therefore as you apparently don't have a good grasp, and you've got to redo" vs "no, the uni requires you to pass ACCG1b")

 

[Monstar]

it was along the lines of both... accg3xx subjects are heavily based on the subject and its also needed as a prereq.

sigh, i just wish i tried harder the first time i did it instead of playing fucking games.

btw do i need to fill out special approval forms?

 

[Skittled]

for third time enrolment, yes, you will need special approval forms.... though Bill should have said that. EFS can be strange with their forms, sometimes.

hey im not at macquarie...but ive finished my accounting at unsw.

the only way I would justify you having to do this subject again is because if you want to get your professional accreditation in accounting i.e. CA or CPA they wont accept PC's and will send u back to do the course again

 

[Monstar]

this is a prereq for 3rd year subjects..

 

[xeuyrawp]

...if (P) isn't specified

Hoorah, broke my own advice of not giving academic advice! Should have added the (P) bits on the relevant ones. Sorry, I hope it didn't confuse anyone (looks like it wasn't relevant anyway). =/

Yours is much clearer, imo. Thanks for clearing up the mistake.

Or if he wants to get his degree? Kinda important for people wanting to get a job in commerce, afaik.

really, what if you pass you acc subjects, but get pc or a fail in some other non-accounting first year core subjects. Can you still get the accreditation. Answer please.

 

[Luke!]

Ok.

I do a accounting degree. The subject is accg1b. Is there any viable avenues that can make me avoid doing this subject again?

plz.

I just noticed you've chosen to redo the unit. I think that's the best option. Stop playing games. Study and listen to Jay-Z.

Go ask the people who give/approve the accreditation in question, please.
