Couldnt agree more with this - I dropped out of law and managed to finish my commerce degree in three years. Hands down the best thing I ever did. In the two years I spent working instead of being at uni, I managed to get a property and pay off a decent hunk of it. I see a few of my mates in...

Currently with ANZ and very dissatisfied. Ive done some research but not enough, Im leaning towards an industry superfund. I should really speak to someone in the know just regards to whether it's worthwhile at this stage. Long term I would consider a SMSF and perhaps invest it in property.

There are definitely jobs in the law field, it is just competitive and some people miss out. If you work hard on professional development during uni, you shouldn't have an issue. If you dont put in any effort to develop yourself and expect to waltz out of uni and land straight into a job then...

Re: ATAR Notes vs Bored of Studies The thing with something like this is sustainability. As I said before, eventually Mods get older and they just cant keep providing this kind of service. It has to be a perpetual thing whereby new users come on and start providing the service. Ive always...

Re: ATAR Notes vs Bored of Studies I think this is a fair point about BoS. What you have to remember though is that a lot of the Mods on BoS are quite old and removed from the HSC. Like for me, I graduated from uni several years ago and have been working full-time for quite a while now. So...

You can always transfer, do B Econ at USyd and transfer after a year or so, chances are you will get credit for completed units.

Cant speak to the degree combination, but in relation to the majors there isnt really a need to pick right now. Id go into uni open minded and do the core units first before narrowing down on a major. I went into Commerce intending to do either finance or accounting and ended up in HR. PS...

Pretty much the main group of people who dont believe in evolution are Americans, most of whom have yet to figure out that evolution and Christianity are NOT mutually exclusive concepts. Honestly, it stuns me that a country so ignorant of basic concepts sees itself as being an exceptional...

This pretty much. "Business Analyst" is one of the most broad and common titles in the commercial world and it can encompass a wide variety of backgrounds and degrees. Generally speaking, a degree in Commerce majoring in finance/economics/accounting is probably the most relevant pathway for...

You heard wrong. In this day and age, there is a strong trend towards big data, analytics, risk, modelling etc which has really pushed up the demand for people who have a mathematical background. Id say it's probably one of if not the most in demand field within the corporate space.

There is no such thing as a "safe" career. True, some are better than others, but you wont waltz from uni straight into a job. You will need to work hard at personal/career development at uni if you want that to translate to a job.

There are jobs, but no real pathway from graduate level into the industry. I work on a major infrastructure project and we have quite a few science graduates in areas like environmental approvals, geo-technical areas (GIS etc) and project management. So the jobs exist, but getting there from a...

I couldnt agree more with this, to be honest, it cuts across many sectors. The issue is, employers are no longer interested in investing in graduates. Years ago, firms were happy to invest the time training graduates, whereas nowadays they just want people who are ready to go from day one...

I agree contact the police, definitely doesnt seem legit. Was there any type of interview?

I did, but I dropped out several years ago.

PROTAGONIST (ENFJ-A) Same result I got when I did a similar test on BoS a few years back.

So I ended up going with the Omega: Seriously can't believe the size and detail of the box...

Couldnt agree more with this - the team has worked hard over the years to stamp negative conduct and I think we have definitely seen a strong improvement over the past 5 years. I also agree with this - ultimately, this is the internet and people are free to express an opinion even if it is...
