The Monash Handbok that was supplied is soo confusing. I dont get what the "open electives" are. For my first semester, supposedly i have to take a least 4 common Core Units and 2 Electives. I don't get that part. Oh, and i'm from the business school 
Not too sure in regards to the open electives as per the business school, but I'll use the IT school as an example here.In Comp Sci, there's 3 types of subjects:
- core
- elective (or Comp Sci electives)
- free/open elective
core subjects are well, the subjects compulsory to the course. you cannot escape these.
the electives are the subjects that you can choose from a given list of subjects
free/open electives are subjects that you can choose from anywhere. does not have to be an IT subject, it can even be a business or communications subject.
btw. do you mean 1st year or 1st semester? 'cause you can only do 4 subjects max in a semester, and there's also 6 common cores for the Bachelor of Business & Commerce. If in doubt, go and see your course manager right away on how to plan your subjects accordingly to your selected major. the last thing that you want is a mess up that results in you needing to do extra semesters to get your major.
