So how is it compared to the likes to UNSW, USYD and UTS?
Taking into account Job Interviews, employment with the big 4 accounting firms?

from what ive heard, Macquarie has a very good reputation for business and economics.

although i would rather go to UNSW, due to it being the best business school in australia (thats from what i have heard from academics)

Ive never heard USYD, UTS and UNSW collectively referred to as the Big 3 lol.

Just go to whichever uni is closest. I go to Mac and have worked in Big 4 accounting. It doesnt make a difference really where you go from what I have seen out of those 4 unis.

Neither hehe, in terms of tiers it should be USYD/UNSW then the rest..UTS doesn't belong on that tier. (Unless it does have a particular reputation in accounting I wasn't aware of).

somewhat true.
it's debatable but on a personal level, I agree with said statement.

however it is a very competitive co-op degree to get into. our school captain got in with an UAI on the top end high 97 and the longest and most impressive resume I have ever seen. just looking at achievements alone, it spanned onto about 3 pages full of community work, extra-curricular school commitments and big noteworthy awards.
to top it off, she is also one of the nicest and most approachable people ever. she deserves it.
