No major will simply allow you to go overseas - I think you have to apply for those overseas exchange programs within the uni

Not exactly...GPA is a grade point average (where HD=7, DN=6 etc), and WAM is the average of your course mark.

Nah, they don't take into consideration which uni you're at, although it's an advantage to have done the first degree at the same uni, as it's much easier crediting subjects to your new degree. In the past, the Faculty of Commerce has taken the higher of UAI or first year results (GPA) in...

Your best chance is to put B Commerce as your first preference (as no one knows what the cutoffs will be next year). Second preference should be B Economics and then third pref should be B Arts (also, it's Arts not Art). Whether it's "easier" doing Arts or Econ first year...well, it's easier...

If you select B Com (International), I think that gives you the 1 year mandatory overseas exchange program. A normal B Com won't give you international experience, but you can always apply for exchange programs down the track

Just proves that USyd is now the "popular" uni - so if you want to stay cool, UNSW is the alternative uni for you :rolleyes:

I was passing through David Jones at Chatswood and they have a few. Who the hell buys consoles at David Jones anyway...

The EY building is pretty close to Flinders St Station isn't it? You can just probably tram it from UMelb to EY, it'd take about 15-20 mins. You probably won't have parking, so I guess public transport would be the way. When going out to clients, I suggest you get a lift from one of the senior...

Yes there's a mandatory exchange in 3rd I think...perhaps the cutoff will be somewhere around 99..with only 30 places..

UNSW - it now has a Faculty of Business, where it knowledge-shares with AGSM (FCE and AGSM merged this year). I went to UNSW, highly recommend it :)

It all counts for shit if someone does Com/Law for the parents, and ends up hating the job they land...

Yeah agreed. If you don't put in the hard yards, don't expect to get many positive reviews. If a client has a 10 day deadline for an audit to be complete, there will be significant pressure from managers and above to get things done, and if it means 10 hour days to get things done, then so be...

Congrats to any new graduands :)

Dunno about you guys, but at the client I'm at, I get our vaccy to do basic audit work, talk to the client's accountants etc

Hmm what the hell...I guess it was a necessity given the merge with AGSM oh well...will ComSoc still be called ComSoc?

Holy shit! Now things are definately going to be interesting...

Mmm...I've been on cable for 5 years now, and it's starting to get "slow" (i.e, files are getting larger and larger, so things take longer to download). Still, HTTP downloads from good servers go at 700-1100 KB/s

Yeah I'd get your LEGT subjects out of the way as quick as you can - they aren't that hard and won't take up too much of your time (away from your finance or accounting or whatever)

At EY, salaries are reviewed yearly (and performance is reviewed bi-annually) - this means that at all levels from Grad to Senior Manager, salary increases (and promotions) are linked to performance. I'm sure this is roughly the same at all Big4.

Re: Lost - Discuss Future Episodes Here! But where will they run to? They need a boat.. and what of Jack? 1 hour and then....?? Dammit can't wait 3 months
