Semester

AC has two main semesters.

Semester 1 is Jan to June.

Semester 2 is July to Dec.

The census date determines which semester a subject belongs in. Eg. if a subject has a census date in Jan - it is a semester 1 subject. But if the census date is July - it is a semester 2 subject.

Typically a student only takes 4 subjects within each semester period.
