It's also worth noting that UNSW probably excels in accounting-related career paths, however, they don't supply data for this.

Because it doesn't clearly inicate where the statistics come from in the title?

The Good Uni Guide publishes them based on DEST and GCCA data (from memory)

EDIT: wait, did i just get trolled :(

EDIT EDIT: methinks so.

No, this wasn't the purpose of this thread. I have often recommended UNSW to people that I know as it excels in many things (accounting, for instance). However, I just wanted to post the ratings offered by the Good Unis Guide.
The only ones that I find endearing are the 'overall satisfaction' ratings.

Do people take the Good Uni Guide seriously? They consistently rank Bond as the best Law School in Australia (LMAO), and in the 2006 guide MQ p3wned nearly all other unis... Now I go to Mac but even I don't agree with that.

i didnt see MQ as having the best ratings across all categories.
I only really take note of graduate student ratings on teaching quality, etc.

Those figures look like USYD propoganda to me, I bet Brogan had a hand in this. It's not over yet foolish fools, just wait till the swimsuit competition, UNSW FOR THE WIN!

Wait, we only have asians at our uni, damnit they could go topless in that comp and no one would be the wiser. Fuck it, i'll just get our accountants to devise a budget that alows for the purchase of a nuclear warhead by our Eco/Comm faculty to smite you USYD bastards.

from memory, last year it had UNSW over USYD in most categories. In the actual guide it has UNSW equivelant to USYD in most of the general categories and better in some

The whole story cannot be explained by just using figures and ratings, i guess the only way for u to decide which is better is to go and study at both universities, but not many people have done that.

Otherwise your judement maybe biased.
