    What are the best extra curricular's/work experiences you guys havedone?

    I joined up with my local Lions Club (community-based organisation) and work on projects to help raise funds for the community. I go to 2 meetings a month, and then spend a couple of hours outside of that doing the work (some weeks I do nothing, some weeks I could put in 20 hours).. It's up to...

    Accounting major - sustainable business or finance?

    Don't think I could handle doing law as a major - would be fine for 1 or two units, but not an entire major.. I think I'd get bored!

    Accounting major - sustainable business or finance?

    Thanks for that info :) By the time I'm finished my degree (part time) I'll more than likely be in my early 40s, so perhaps I don't need to worry so much about the sustainability side of things. In saying that, I've read a little bit about it, and it does look quite interesting. I've still got a...

    Accounting major - sustainable business or finance?

    Hi everyone. I've applied to change degrees from education (as I had a TERRIBLE prac experience and realised teaching was not for me!) to accounting. After reading through all the info, I have narrowed down my options to do Bach Commerce (majoring in accounting) but would like to choose a...

    How do I cite references?

    I would probably start the sentence saying something like: According to George, blah blah blah.. then end paragraph (George, 1997) Something along those lines. You are best to double check this with the tutor tho

    Dip ed by distance

    Hi :) Though I'm studying Dip Ed through a QLD uni, I can tell you that we still get prac placements, though have to organise them ourselves. I'm not doing mine for a while, as I've only just started this week :) Not too sure about your second question though, sorry

    Need help with maths

    The other option is to find out what topics are taught in ext 1, and go to that maths online site, where it gives you free basic topic tutorials.. study those for a couple of weeks, might be a good way to have a bit of background knowledge... Or borrow an EXT1 textbook from the library, and run...

    Anyone know how to become qualified in ALL social sciences like buisness, legal, sac?

    Re: Anyone know how to become qualified in ALL social sciences like buisness, legal, Might depend on the state you are in, but afaik, you can only get qualified in 2 specialisations (I think in QLD SOSE counts as one specialisation). I'm doing B.Ed (Secondary) majoring in Mathematics.. If i...

    history teaching?

    You are best to ring the university that you are attending, as it may vary from uni to uni, and also may vary from state to state. There will be some subjects that you HAVE to do to complete history as a specialisation. Try the website, or phone the edu dept at the university. Be advised...

    teaching or psychology???

    IMO - if you choose teaching, choose a subject that you will enjoy. No point being a maths/science teacher (even though job prospects are good) if you don't care what 1+1 equals, or don't care that if you mix nitrogen & carbon you'll get a big explosion (not sure if this is true, just an...

    nice guys finish last

    As a 32 year old woman, i'd like to add my 2 cents: As a high school student, the "bad boy" was usually the most popular.. therefore usually the better catch... He was always cute, with a don't care attitude that made most of us girls swoon... Now reflecting on that, and knowing what he's...

    Piercings at work

    Actually, most of the food places i know of will say that you may only have one sleeper in each ear... Studs are easier to lose the back of and fall into the food, whereas the sleeper stays in, as it's a hoop EDIT - I just realised that you meant a clear stud in the nose, not the ears.. Any job...

    Jobs at Pubs and Bars

    Get your RSA - it shows prospective employers that you are interested :) You may need to start at the bottom and work your way up.. Pubs are always looking for glassies, there's also bistro attendant (basically a waitress! lol) which is what i'm currently doing. During down times they are...

    Piercings at work

    Woolworths - definitely don't allow facial peircings.. They are pretty strict with dress codes.. We even had the dress code posted up 3 times in the locker room, so we'd "get the point".. lol Not too sure about places that let you wear them - I know at the bar I work at, they allow a small...

    Primary v Secondary - Thoughts???

    Thanks blerkles :) Where I live is considered to be a country/rural area, however it is fairly populated, so not too sure. I've checked a few websites and not found any available primary roles, but a few maths and business teachers, so think I will definitely do that. I'm not wanting to "jump...

    Mature Age Students :)

    That's ok, I don't have any kids! So no comparisons lol.. I'm mostly there to learn and to get my degree, however having a few people to chat too and maybe have a good study group would be great. Thanks everyone so much for the information :)

    Bar Job...

    Hi H4lfD0ll4r... I just managed to get my first job in hospitality. I went and sat my RSA certificate (which is essential to serve alcohol here in QLD, but check your state regulations) and applied. Since I had no bar experience, they've actually given me a waitressing job, and during the down...
