    What Do You Like About UNSW??

    You only do 2 subjects of law in the first year, and that they make you do combined, and that commerce have free options. So people like me can have 1 year to consider whether or not to drop law without falling behind:).

    er? i dun quite get you. I always thought ppl who do ext2 math will also get a mark for 2u math separately...? Whatever the case, only the best 10 unit will be counted, and 2unit subject can always be halved if necessary.
