    you will find that whilst academic performance is important, the thing most people are looking for when interviewing is how well you would fit into the firm and more specifically their team. from firsthand experience the thing that sticks in the mind of those interviewing you is not how smart...

    Cadetships 2008/09

    Re: Cadetships 2007 Tax is a bit different in that you don't necessarily have to do your CA because it isn't a requirement to practice. In fact in some firms it is preferable that you go and do your Masters as opposed to CA. As such, doing an accounting based degree isn't actually necessary...

    How hard is it to fail an exam/assessment?

    yes and in the overview of how to fail the subject it will generally involve doing absolutely nothing throughout the semester. if you do the work it is virtually impossible to fail.

    where/when we get our textbooks

    i think that figure just shows the perceived value of joining the union. make it worthwhile and people will join.

    timetable query

    yes i thought it was pretty random. although i do like the fact that you can just show your classes for one particular semester now, rather than the entire year.

    timetable query

    so what would you do to someone who is at uni 2 days a week? granted i'm going to drop back to 3 subjects anyway, so it will be more like 8 hours - but you know just hypothetically.
