Hi Experts,
I'm planning to apply ACS assessment under Software Engineer (ANZSCO 261313) with BSc Computer Engineering Degree.
According to the ACS guideline document, It is mentioned that In all educational qualifications, 65% of the ICT content must be closely related to the nominated occupation (ANZSCO) to meet the suitability criteria.
If not, ACS will deduct 4 years from the work experience. (instead of 2 years)
Based on my calculation, I have around 55-60% ICT Subjects closely related to my occupation (Software Engineer). My degree also contains the following subjects which cannot be claimed as closely related to Software Engineer occupation.
Network Analysis for Computer Engineering
Logic Networks
Signals and Systems for Computer Engineering
Computer and Data Networks
Computer and Network Security
Communication Engineering
Digital Signals and Systems
Digital communication
Computer Architecture
1) Anyone gone through the same situation and ACS deducts 4 years? Does ACS strictly require more than 65% ICT units to be related to Occupation?
2) My degree almost covers each and every ICT units mentioned under Software Engineer in the following document. But, due to the above non-programming related subjects, I couldn't satisfy the 65% rule.

Appreciate your inputs if anyone has gone through the same situation !!
