Why don't you guys just drop out of high school and go to university? (1 Viewer)

[DTFM]

It makes a great deal more sense than finishing high school and then going to university.

That's what happens when you're governed by Labor, they raise the leaving school age to 17...

because it means the only uni you can make it into is tafe

Not true, you can do Open Foundation/STAT test, but most people don't want to do that.

 

[DTFM]

STAT is the way to go. Taking a three hour test that you don't have to study for is a lot easier than doing the HSC.

 

[DTFM]

Seriously, absolutely nothing is stopping you Year 11 students starting university July this year. You will be half-way through your degree by the time you would have finished high school.

except that the degree gets u nowhere. besides bricklaying

 

[chrisnumber1]

because if you want to do something good you need to do the prerequisites like ext 1 maths for example.

Yes, a Bachelor of Laws or a Bachelor of Engineering or a Bachelor of Medical Science are code for 'bricklaying degree'.

because if you want to do something good you need to do the prerequisites like ext 1 maths for example.

Most of the time those are just recommendations and if not there is nothing stopping you doing a bridging course.

did you follow this path?

 

[DTFM]

did you follow this path?

I would have had I known it was possible.

 

[chrisnumber1]

so, basically no

Wrong again! You can get into most degrees this way. You have to be over 21 for some unis, but at Newcastle, non-bricklaying degrees include: arts, architecture, teaching, commerce, fine arts, music, nursing...

Y'know, not brick laying.

Example of another azn that thinks the only way to get into uni is by doing mx2 maths, physics, chem and english and going to james ruse.
