    How to become a pass leader?

    Like hoseyy said, check out the website and it should give you some insights. You can also express your thoughts to the lecturer in charge and ask for their opinion.

    The difference is that by doing commerce and arts, you have two actual degrees.

    how hard is it to achieve a 75 wam in these subjects?

    When I was studying 1A back then I had always thought it was hard. Later that I look at it when I studied 2A/3A, it seemed not that hard after all.

    Not sure if it's just me or, at least I always feel like the course is missing sth if I skip the first week. Some courses require students to do some sort of in-class tests (maybe worth ~3% of your course mark) during the first week (yes I'm being serious and this applies to some crazy...

    Tutoring in 1st year undergrad
