Dilemma!

I got to choose my modules for the next semester in another few days and I now have a dilemma... Which is brought about because SIM revamped ALL the modules, I had already previously more or less decided on what and how I want to clear my modules... but with this stupid change by SIM, my plans are all thwarted lor!

So now, the dilemma....

Should I fill my semester 5 with
Package 1:
1) Core - Financial Instruments, Institutions & Markets, 5 cu(project)
2) Core - Financial Management, 5 cu (exam) and
3) Core - Strategy, 10 cu (exam)
Total: 20 cu

leaving my 3 communications modules electives (1 project and 2 exams) in my last semester? Total of 15 cu

Or I should fill semester 5 with
Package 2:
1) Core - Financial Instruments, Institutions & Markets, 5 cu (project)
2) Core - Financial Management, 5 cu (exam) and
3) Electives - The Critique and Evaluation of Discourse, 5 cu - which I dislike but no choice as there's non other electives that's available to me for the coming semester! (exam)
Total: 15 cu

leaving Strategy (Core) and 2 communication module (electives), which will be 2 exams and 1 project for the last semester? A grand total of 20 cu.

The catch is, for every semester,
1) I don't want to take more than 2 exams.
2) Strategy, is meant to be taken in the FINAL semester as it's case studies based and lessons are on 3 or 4 Sundays over the semester, so am not sure if SIM will allow me to take it in my 2nd last module too.
3) Actually, I was also hoping for a lighter load for Semester 6 as then, last semester, already not much mood to study.
4) The elective modules I wanted are only offered in July 2009 and July 2010!

I wanted to do less modules when I am doing the Strategy as I've already heard that it's a killer module, but looking at the modules available, there's no chance of it happening already! =(

And the worse worse situation is since I dislike the The Critique and Evaluation of Discourse module, I can only choose to do just the Finance modules in Semester 5, take the elective modules in Semester 6 and then add 1 more semester just for the Strategy! - This option is the last of my choice, hubby's last choice too. He would have finished in Apr 09 and I have to do 1 more year as compared!!

At the moment, I seem to prefer Package 1... But I'm worried that I cannot manage the Strategy la... especially when I already have 20 cu of exemptions hence lots of the things I already forgot.... and Strategy is a COMBINATION of EVERYTHING!!!

Either way, when I do my Strategy, I got to do it with another 2 modules, no way to siam too... I should "suffer now and enjoy later" or should I do the reverse???

Hai......

This have to happen just when Hubby and I have decided to try to make a child next year.

ARGH!!!!!!
