GUYS PLEASE HELP ME IM SO CONFUSED
I'm scared I wont get an atar of 78 (I know its low I'm dumb okay don't ask)
and was wondering if someone who has done foundation studies could talk to me about it because I'm so lost???
like I'm very confused and thought i'd ask here before I contacted the uni I wanted to go through
also would online be better than like in person (if I were to travel in person to the campus it'd take an hour or two and that's just not super convenient for me...)

speech pathology
oh alr

u gotta do foundation studies then, it’s just that for some stuff like nursing u can go get a cert/diploma and then go into a bachelors which only takes like an extra year coz the courses can carry over, but speech path doesn’t have that option sadly

alternatively u could just enter a diff degree and transfer in, if u do something like a bachelor of science u can also probably do speech pathology courses and then get the credit for those so u won’t get too behind. the only issue with foundation studies is pretty sure they’re not covered by the government, which means u have to pay like 30k. tafe is probably better for that reason, there’s the typical uni prep certificate thingy and also this https://www.tafensw.edu.au/course-a...on-and-swallowing-support--HLT43021-03?page=1 which is directly relating to speech path, although it seems to not be offered in sydney for some reason
