well i'm doing combined commerce(finance)/economics(int'l biz) anyway :)

In the US, unis are ranked by research. Research contributes a large part of a uni's reputation.

Re: majors Economics is the study of the laws of human action and interaction. This makes economics the very root of business decisions, government policy, and global relations. A degree in economics can prepare you for a broad array of careers: journalism, city planning, banking, finance...

ty :)

anyone here from class of '01 doin an economics degree??? is it a good idea to do a maths bridging course if i'm doin economics this year? (i only did 2u maths in the hsc). the assumed knowledge says hsc maths, but i still don't feel confident....

hehe ty :) the int'l rep (unis are known by their research) is largely why i'm goin there. and it's associated with 3 of australia's 7 nobel prizes. spoke to 2 graduates at yale and oxford (who've been to other oz unis) who reckon that the anu is the best known oz uni over where they are...

shouldve been clearer. they are the best in nsw in terms of research and teaching (theyre the ony nsw unis in the Go8). they're the only other 2 unis i put down in my prefs. it's just that when i mention i'm going to the anu (also in Go8) i seem to get condescending reactions. like the anu is...

i really dislike the lack of independent resources available to students to help them make their decisions. the only source i know of is good guides, and from what Porphyria_J pointed out, even that doesnt appear to be of a decent quality. too bad there arent any league tables, itd be easier...

how difficult is the maths if u major in finance?

hehe same here i got 90s and the cutoff for com/ecos (ANU) is 75.

you're generalising there. you can't deny that there aren't people like that at your school. it's unfortunate that these types of people exist at all. it's a fact that every school has these kinds of people. my bro is there and he is nothing like that. i know of many people who have bros there...

nvm there'll be plenty of pvt school kiddies there (me not included). the majority of my friends are goin to usyd or unsw. i'm goin to the anu to do com/ecos (it was a toss up b/w com/law and com/ecos) the unis that i wouldn't mind goin to are the ANU, unsw and usyd (& melb which i didn't apply...

hmm how come i got charged $52 (or was it $50?) per hour by Trent?? it def wasn't worth the money. the 1st instructor was a prick (then he quit).. the 2nd one a bit better.. sometimes we hardly covered anything significant in a lesson, it seemed as if they try to stretch everthing out for as...

i had pvt maths tutoring for yr11/12 @ $40/hr 2 times a wk. my bro in yr 10 ('03) has had it since yr 9. i tried pre uni for several eco lessons and found that they totally sucked (for me anyway). the standard of teaching was so lousy. the eco teacher didn't really teach, he constantly went...

Re: on campus looks like you'll like the BEco degree b/c it's apparently very quantitative @ ANU. i've only done 2u maths, and although this is the level of assumed knowledge for the course, i still don't feel confident.

commerce/economics anyone planning to study commerce/economics???????? i'm again considering this... not sure if this is a good idea or not..

christina aguilera, britney spears, shakira etc are all so slutty. wonder how many fans they would have if they actually wore clothes.

no! he just donated some money for cancer research. his parents have lived in canberra for 40 yrs...

hmm they still haven't contacted me.. think i'll call on monday to make sure. i applied online as well. it still says application received. i wonder if they actually update teh site. if i don't get in, i'll get an apartment for the first year or first semester. then i'll try my luck again :)...
