    Just wondeing does anyone have advice whether to focus on a specific area or to keep my options open with modules from different areas? Talking to some people who've already graduated, they advised me to do an array of modules (and to pick relatively easy ones!) in order to get a high GPA. The other areas I was interested in was Accounting, but I'm not really sure if I want to do just accounting modules all year!
    Any advice would be most appreciated!

    i suppose the main thing is to decide whether or not you want to do accounting. If you do then you'll have to do certain subjects in order to have CAP 1 exemptions. If you decide accounting isn't your thing than I'd choose a wide array of modules and focus on having a good GPA.

    Thanks. Just researching the modules I'd have to do get CAP1 exemptions I'd have to do 8 modules in semester one and 4 in semester two, just with the way the timetables are looking
