    Investment banking?

    I highly doubt an if so not so guy would understand complex systems for comparing large transnational corporations with all the various factors and elements involved. Kid, it's probably a little beyond you.

    Investment banking?

    Firstly,I've already shared my opinions, that's why i was asked for the books/sites. Secondly, just because someone is doing their HSC does not mean they cannot read about a topic they are interested in. Also, it's not a retarded arguement. You're retarded.

    Investment banking?

    According to anyone with any knowledge of the industry. Make the most money, worth the most, own the most. There's a number of different ways to rank companies, in most GS and ML are at the top.

    Investment banking?

    LOLZ, trying to demean my views by labelling it as trolling? Says more about you than it does about me. As for research: The two biggest and most influential players in NY are Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch and most of my research into the industry has been focused on those two companies...

    Investment banking?

    It is obvious to someone that is knowledgeable like me that everyone who is argueing with me is a moron. blue_chameleon, i make the comment because i can and it is my opinion. Getting a shot with those companies is what i call 'easy'. You may have a different opinion and that's fine...

    UAI Cut-Offs

    It depends on a lot of factors. If last year was an above average year and this is a below average year in terms of academic students it could go down somewhat and vice versa too. You won't know until the year finishes. Also things like how high uni demand is this year. Maybe a larger percentage...

    mathematics sucks

    Dude, you crazy? Circle geometry is so easy. It's in the same category as probability, sequences and series, integration. The hard stuff is quadratic polynomial, calculus, locus,trig. My word is final btw.

    Investment banking?

    Read my post again. 'Easy' is both a subjective and relative term. Easy compared to what??? It's pretty easy compared to finding the cure to cancer, beating Hillary Clinton and climbing Mt. Everest.
  9. HSC guy

    Investment banking?

    Yeah I've done a bit of research on New York financial companies (eg Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch etc) and it's relatively easy to get your foot in the door but starter salaries are very low, the standard of work is high, the workload is even higher and the bottom 5-10% get fired.

    What happens if you decide to pay HECS after uni and then you move overseas before you've paid it off?

  13. HSC guy

    Does your school buy trial papers?

    We get ours from CSSA. And the only thing our teachers change is they cross out the stuff we haven't got upto yet because we're so slow.
  14. HSC guy

    What are your career aspirations?

    Get into investment banking. Move to Wall Street. Retire at 30. (It really is that easy.)
  15. HSC guy

    subject selection regrets..

    If i had my time over again i'd do physics instead of ancient. I'd stick with 3u maths instead of going down to 2u, and i would have done 3u english (i seriously underestimated by english abilities:mad1: )
  18. HSC guy

    An english speech was due this Friday, i didn't start until like 6pm on the last day, stayed up till 2.30am doing it and thats my worst and i wasn't even that bad compared to the rest of my class. Nearly everyone left it to the last day and several people stayed up past 5am.
