ATAR for USYD is considerably higher (e.g. business commerce)
would a degree from USYD increase employability prospects?
if not, then why is the ATAR requirement so much higher?
Thank you!

I believe it's to do with their ranks - I'm pretty sure a more academically capable student base is beneficial for the uni to improve its rank, and this is obviously very important to USyd as it cares about prestige and reputation.

As for employment, I think that for Business/Commerce, the major also plays an important role. For some, uni may matter, for others, not so much. Marks are also important: going to a uni like USyd and failing to get good marks is not likely to have a favourable outcome in terms of future employment.

okay, so it's beneficial to the uni....
is it necessarily advantageous for the student?
ohhhh okay right, so it all depends
Correct, it really depends on your major, marks, job/company you wish to work in as well as international opportunities (if applicable).

If employers care about the uni you graduated from, USyd will have a positive effect.
