Not really sure - you'd have to talk to someone at your uni's Med faculty about that.

I don't see why not. It's really just about getting the marks and experience so that you can get into that interview. Once you're in that interview, that's where you can really distinguish yourself from the other candidates and once you get employed, the relevance of your degree wanes as you...

Yep. 2nd year.

Yeah I feel yah but then I think about how they have to take on so much responsibility for their lives now and that kind of freaks me out tbh - we're still so young (20 this year pretty much). Plus I absolutely love my uni so I'm in no hurry to graduate :haha: Besides, if you're doing...

(Insert obligatory "no use staying in it if you don't actually enjoy it" comment here), but especially for something like Law which demands so much of your time and energy - the solicitors at my firm work from 7:00am to 8:00pm on a good day, most even later, so it's not like you can have much of...

It'll depend on what you want to do - with the huge generalist degree that Commerce is now and the currently oversaturated market of grads, it'd be unwise to do a single Commerce degree with the intention of making it in Business. Not saying that it's impossible, but considering that your...

dw everyone gets a HD in Acct A and Eco 1... if you don't... well...

Yeah but iirc it's mandatory for the teachers to mix up their assessments somehow. Speeches and Listening Tasks were the tamest ways I guess.

It's not really a problem since you can essentially cram the entire years worth of work for each subject into less than a week. The sudden bombardment of assessments from every subject at once though never stops no matter where you are but I think it's because the teachers are given a guide of...

Did alright in HSC - 97.5+. Doing what I feel is better at uni - 82+ WAM (but it's about to drop after these finals). I think the correlation between HSC and Uni is minimal at best. Uni is essentially HSC at a far higher level and I think there are far more reasons other than poor study...

Study the contract law part from that Barron textbook (I think it's called Fundamentals of Business Law) and the other half you can basically wing. Sent from my GT-I9100T using Tapatalk

They really don't. All of the recruiters I deal with (CBA and KPMG in particular were REALLY heavy on this, they wouldn't even let me put my HSC results on mine) said that no one cares about who you were in high school, not even if you were the school captain. They want to know who you are in...

If you mean this in terms of landing a cadetship/traineeship out of high school this may be so, but if you mean this in terms of landing a job post-undergraduate degree you couldn't be more mistaken.

my mum did Acct + Mngmt and now she's a CFO

Actually what they intend is quite the opposite - to give students a better chance at competing on a global scale where most businesses now have huge international functions and where domestically degrees are starting have less significance than ever because everyone has one. Every country...

it's also not about profits - it's about funding research so Australian unis can have a presence on internet rankings like QS which all use research as a major ranking factor it's literally about making the unis more prestigious on a global scale

the unis are not concerned about mere operating costs

yes because a 16 year old who can think logically which would only ever lead to predicting certain outcomes trumps people who have actually already had the experiences and know the outcomes

this actually isn't a terrible idea the award night thing is pointless but this isn't that bad

Re: If I do comm/law at unsw and do no extra curricular, will I be able to get a job That's a very poor summary of the extensive information provided. But given that most, if not all, job applications require at least a two stage process - I.e. a CV/Resume and possibly a cover letter review...
