I have a straight commerce degree and nowhere near hd wam lol. But you right, there's a lot of comlaw. Just saying you don't need comlaw or super high honour grades Just the right type of ECs would do tbh

But ib/tas/mc would also take people with straight commerce degrees (no need for co-op). It's really not that hard as people think to get interviews. Why do an extra degree?

Are you sure employers will actually care about the difficulty in marking between unsw and usyd? Did they tell you this?

Yeah you're right

Also to answer your question, most employers don't care about which uni you go to. But it is such a coincidence that every AC i've been to have been composed of at least 60-70% from unsw. Whether they care about wam will depend on exactly what role you're applying for. 70 wam is good for like...

But how can you be fairly sure when there is evidence that the opposite can happen? i.e. in my case having a higher unsw wam than macquarie I have found the unsw exams a lot easier and requiring less study. But then again it's only commerce. Your friend might have done engineering or something

are you sure unsw exams are more difficult than macquarie's? I transferred form macquarie to unsw and my wam at unsw is higher than what it was at macquarie in first year lol...

^ that's nice and all but the degree you do will make life easier for you lol. Choose economics

I reckon if you have a solid standardised cover letter the "scattergun" approach should work for all similar firms without needing to change anything. It worked for me during internship season last year even for IB apps - i.e. the only thing I changed in regards to the content of cover letters...

I recommend applying to as many different places as you can tbh regardless

Trust me in high finance no one cares about your feelings

Unsw and Unsw only. You never know, one day you may aim for mbb and bbib. Don't limit your opportunities.

Re: Statistics ELI5 Please

tldr - Overall it was a great recruiting process, as I expected and I would not have done anything different in in the interview or in preparation for it given the circumstance. Correspondence was adequate, group case study and standard individual interview. The hardest bit was getting the...

Just finished internship in M&A consulting. AMA (Well almost anything)

And OP no offence but don't waste your time with applying for the management consulting firms. All the factors are against you. You have a good shot at big 4 advisory though - just not the deals/tas/cf areas

^ hope that was sarcasm

What are your ecs like?

Go to unsw
