I was surprised about UTS also. I thought I would be next to no chance to get in, and my most likely option was going to be UNSW followed by Macquarie. Even the combined degree with International Studies dropped significantly. Not that I'm complaining though. What really surprised me was that...

It took me straight to my Facebook page?

Exactly. I went from studying communication at UWS with a poor UAI (around 50-55) and only a Diploma to my name to the one of the best Journalism courses in the country. It can be done.

Don't know why. At least it's something different.

It's open guys! I'm in to my first preference - UTS Bachelor of Communication (Journalism)! How exciting!

Assuming you can only do one, why don't you sit down and go through the possible degrees you want to do, figure out which are your favourites and then go through how each degree is structured and what is covered throughout the degree. Look up the unit descriptions and read them. For example, if...

If it were me, I would prefer UNSW's degree. Not in regards to "prestige" or anything like that. The one overwhelming feature of UNSW's degree is that it is a combined degree, which in my opinion gives you a distinct edge over other graduates with a single degree, not to mention expanded job...

I tend to agree with this - sort of. There are some degrees where Arts as the second degree could be really useful and round out your learning if you want to go into certain careers, such as using it with Law to get into a public policy/political career. Or using it with Business/Commerce for...

How about the rest of my preferences? Are there any I can safely rule out? This is the ATAR required for each of them ATAR 94.05 - Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Journalism), UTS ATAR 98.5 - Bachelor of Arts (Media and Communications) at University of Sydney ATAR 91 - Bachelor of Media...

Same here. I'm keen to know!

Yeah basically what they said. So when you get your results back, it should have two important numbers on there. The first one is a raw mark out of 100 (after scaling), while the second one is a number between 1 and 7 for your GPA. The first mark is used to calculate your second mark for your...

Fair enough. Let me explain. Firstly, that's why I said people need to sit down and figure out if it's a job or a career. And the essentials are still the same. As a former employer, when I hired people I looked at one page resumes only due to lack of time. If I wanted a career I researched who...

Alienware or Falcon Northwest? They are the best. But since most of us don't have $5000 to drop on a laptop - and are spending far too much money and need to go get laid if they are - then Asus or Gigabyte are highly regarded brands.

First job? It's been a fair few years since my first job, but I'll do my best to give some advice. So the first thing you need to do is sit down and figure out what you want from this "job" thing. Is it going to be just a job, or are you looking at a career? Once you've done this, spend a day...

Just talk to them? Keep it really simple. The best result from pretty much anything you do in life will come from keeping it simple. The more you think about it the harder it will be.

I'm aiming to transfer from the Bachelor of Communication at UWS to either: Preferences 1 to 5 Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Journalism), UTS Bachelor of Arts (Media and Communications) at University of Sydney Bachelor of Media (Communication and Journalism) at UNSW Bachelor of Arts...
