First, alot (in comparison to very very few if any at Maquarie) of UTS people are on scholarships with those firms. Second, alot of Macquarie students are internation students who don't apply for "Big 4". Third, Accounting is not equivalent to "Commerce". Fourth, statistics don't tell the...

IronMike responded to most of those claims in his subsequent posts (which form the bulk of the thread - I think pages 2 to 6). =p

that's alright, so long as the students arent dropping like flies =p

actually macquarie is good for psych (or so i heard from unbiased sources, ie. non-macquarie people).

i would suggest (accg253 and acst201) over (acst200) because you have better chances of achieving a pass or better in both (accg253 and acst201) than (acst200).

smarter cookie, i forgot about that one.

That's only Monash, isn't it? Although other unis have off-campus traumatic deaths too. =p

An easy way to find out is to just go to SES and ask for a copy of your Unofficial Transcript (the Official Transcript costs money, whereas the Unofficial Transcript is free). You'll find your GPA as well as your grades on that. A GPA of 3 would be equivalent to a Credit average (well, sort...

which book is that?

you're an actuary, so it doesn't count. the yearbook is half done. the other half being the hard part... ps - get james to buy the textbooks and give them to you at work, if you dont wanna wait in line.. cos he'll be at uni for mentor training / orientation

I have no doubt there are many who are smarter, have better personalities, etc. than actuaries. In fact, non-actuaries can beat actuaries (in ACST101 - all 3 mods were beaten by a non-actuary here on BoS in the same semester we took the unit). But in short, there are better ways to spend 4cp...

was that the training day? i dont recall getting that feed? old-age is crippling my memory, these days.

great minds, indeed :D

it was from early morning to late arvo (now it's just half-day) i think there was food (otherwise, i wouldn't have gone ;)) edit - im not sure if they snacks or proper food ie. meat.

maybe it was last year... actually, that was when g2g started stalking me. maybe you'll meet a fellow bos-er... all i remember doing was walking around campus and chatting with peoples. anyways, you guys have it good cos *we* (read: me) complained about the training day being too long...

lol, get in line! =p

it's generally alright, ie. less than 15 minutes (unless it's raining or a hot day). you just have to time it, like getting seats in exam-period (or thereabouts)

it's boring. (sorry to lower your expectations)

In fact, since most uni students don't start studying until the last few weeks, you'd think that summer school would be easier.

I was about to post something similar, ie. it would be unfair to your peers, ie. it's like getting a pink paper which gets reused every year.
