    General Q's: Commerce/Science, Chemistry major

    Hmm asdfghjkl12345, who are you? I just finished that major (geology) this year at usyd. Anything mining will start close to 85k+ up to about $120k but you will need to make sacrifices for it (i.e. residential in a small town (where I am now), or FIFO with long shifts (what I did before))...

    Finance electives

    I am one of those who went into finance with absolutely no formal finance education. Not that easy at the start, but I wouldn't have studied finance if I had the chance, as you can pick up it.

    JD Offer from Melbourne and UNSW

    Personally, I dont think UMelb is worth another 60k than UNSW. If you want to get hired in the US, you would either need to transfer across, or take an LLM at a decent school in the US. I'd take UNSW.

    Worth doing Honours in Accounting?

    Opportunity cost. Honours is not that useful in accounting, and an industry qualification such as CA is worth much more. Unless of course you have found a cool topic you are interested in.
