You would be surprised how many CEO's and people in government have degrees in engineering/maths/science. And by the term 'a real degree', I mean an intellectually challenging degree.

Pretty sure it is the general consensus that a real degree revolves around maths/science.

If you people are going to do a degree just to get the 'skills' they should do a real degree, like mathematics or science or philosophy.

Yeah I am planning on doing an Econometrics major.

Eg?

Most people who do law never even actually use there law degree. For example, they do law/commerce and end up doing something in finance where a law degree is basically useless. Couldn't think of anything more boring then law tbh.

Not at all.

I would say both have the same job prospects as it's only a pretty small field i.e not many graduates. If you live in Sydney go to sydney. Whatever is more convenient.

So going to like that haha.

Everyman and his dog has a Law degree.

Well as far as I am aware there is only 2 uni's that offer chem eng in NSW which is newcastle and UNSW. Newcastle is one of the biggest coal ports in the country and has heaps of minerals processing up in the hunter valley so I would say Newcastle.

I have friends doing chem eng. They said HSC chemistry was usefull for about 3 weeks of the first year chemistry course.

You shouldn't have much trouble with first year eng then.

Im doing engineering/ econ and there is pretty much no maths first year for econ. From what I have heard, in 2nd and 3rd year you can normally choose how much maths you want to take on. You can get away with avoiding econometrics and focus more on economic history for example. Ultimately, yes...

I didn't do HSC physics and managing. The higher level maths you do at school the better off you will be first year.

Sticky this shit. Nice post.

I would say engineering and advanced maths/science.

hahah. Law as the hardest degree lol.

Need to spread =[

I tried before but it said i need to spread. Ill try again but.
