    If I repeat my LC this year can I just repeat 3 or 4 and use 2 subjects like my construction(60points) from last year and add them together.I need about 360 points (got 275 last year).

    No. The points must be taken from 6 subjects done in the same year. So you can't combine points from different years.

    However, except for medicine, you can combine matriculation requirements from different years.

    sorry Just to add a quick side question.If you start a course and decide you dont like it can you reapply through the CAO to a different course using your previous years points?

    Yes you can but you will need to fill out pages 3 and 4 of the CAO form.

    you could do that about 15 years ago, but i still think you had to do at least 6 subjects both times.
