Is it difficult to transfer from B.IS to B.Comm/IS ? Also... would the transfer effect how long i'm doing the course in any way?

You're talking about this degree or the major? By banking I mean, just broadly speaking, i'd like to go into the financial service industry, but i'd rather not go into the accounting/ auditing side. Just anything i'd be able to use my brain to both be creative and apply my knowledge/ skills...

Would it be easier to do a different course, say, business / commerce at UTS/MQ rather than stick to IS in UNSW? I don't know... I just need to pick a course, LOL, and am unsure what to go for...

General thoughts? It sounds like a decent degree, but wanted to get an idea about what to expect and everyone's opinion on the course/degree. Is it worth it? How's the degree itself? What opportunities does it have, in university and beyond (First years can snag a spot in the co-op...

The ATAR is released on the 17th of December. Generally, preferences for the main round offers should be made by the 6th of January (http://www.uac.edu.au/undergraduate/offers/dates.shtml) By that logic, could i hypothetically, just put in random courses (I haven't and i know for a...

If i went into uni with a combined degree and chose to pursue a specific course rather than the other, what's the go? As in, does it work that way? Do some unis not let?

Everything to do with the whole business -economics - arts appeals to me. Minus languages and heavy "english" majors... such as english or creative writing.

are there any more favoured majors?

I plan on doing a Arts/ Economics degree at USYD. What 3 Majors should I do? I'm thinking Economics, Finance and Political Economy ? Suggestions, comments, critique ? Should the Political Economy arts major is just a random choice cause i don't know what to do with it. I want...

any takers?

anything good you can do to beef up your resume for business/ office related jobs?

really? With that in mind, if i bomb it in the externals. say, get 50, because my internals were 100 it'll change to 75? What about the case for 2nd place ?

If I get say, 80 internally and come first. And then I get 100 externally. Does my HSC mark turn to 90? OR, does my internal get aligned/ adjusted/ whatever, to lets say, 85-90. THEN that mark and my external are evened out. Assuming my school mark was adjusted to 90 + my external...
