log into my.unsw.edu.au with your student ID and unipass...

you'll be able to adjust your timetable accordingly that way, and by adjust i mean enrol to the courses you need/want and set up the lectures and tutorials you want to go to

UOC = Units of Credit. They're usually 6 units/subject, but can be 3 units, depending on the which degree/subject you're doing.

And for Com/Econ, I think you have to do:

Accounting 1A
QMA
Micro 1

and a subject which you plan on majoring in for Commerce.

Accounting 1B is compulsory for all 1st Years as is 1A.

1st year Commerce and Econ students have to do:

Accounting 1A (Sem 1)
Accounting 1B (Sem 2)
Micro 1 (Sem 1)
Macro 1 (Sem 2)
QMA (Sem 1)
QMB (Sem 2)

So that 3 compulsory subjects for each semester, for first year.

Generally, the maximum number of credits you can do is 24 units - currently, with the compulsory subjects, you have 18 units. You need one extra subject and it's up to you which subject it is; what you wish to major in.

It's all straight forward and in the handbook. You just need to find it.

All I've said is really basic, so just follow and read what's in the link, cos you'll probably get a better understanding from it.

Can someone help with my B Social Science enrolement?

I've enroled in SLSP1000 Social Science & Policy (6 UOC), and that's the only thing I have on my timetable. I'm sure there should be more stuff but what exactly do I put in?

that page provides detailed information regarding your degree and the courses you need to choose for your first year of study, specifically, the following paragraph:

How to Choose Your First Year Program
Enrol in the core course SLSP1001 and either SLSP1000 or an equivalent course (see 2. above); then choose one area from the list in point 3. which you would like to major in, and enrol in the appropriate first year (Level 1) courses. Then select additional courses to make up a total of 48 units of credit. 24 Level 1 units of credit must be selected from courses offered by the Faculty.
of course, refer to the page i linked here for what its talking about
