So what do you want ultimately? B Commerce at UNSW? Probably do Arts then at UNSW and internal transfer. Easier.

btw is arts easy?

 

[Shadowdude]

Depends what subjects you do. You'll be doing Commerce subjects, so... yeah.

hahahaha easy?

Yeah, if you like the subject.

Yeah, if you like the subject.

and if i dont?

 

[Shadowdude]

Then you'll get crap marks, like me!

(unless you're really good at the subject, then you'll still do well)

You need a Distinction average (75 average mark or higher) to transfer.

0.0 isnt that hard to get?

 

[Shadowdude]

Top 15% or so... not really, if you put in the work.

0.0 WHAT????? You getting distinctions?

 

[Shadowdude]

Okay, let's put some perspective...

I did very little work for both my Finance courses last semester and I got 72 and 75, one credit, one distinction.

Do the work, even at the bare minimum, and you'll do pretty well.


Put in tons of work and you'll be on a high distinction average - like for my maths courses, I'm on an HD average.

Whoa nice ... wait so your telling me everyone's really lazy at uni?

 

[Shadowdude]

I've seen James Ruse people slump to mediocrity and settle for final marks of 60-odd.

Not everyone is lazy, but I'd wager a good proportion are. Because no one tells you to study at uni, it's all about finding your self-motivation.
