    Post-grad Speech Pathology?

    Hey :)! I'm not really sure hwo they feel about it but it's true that you sort of cram the 4 years into 2 years hahaha. Also, they 'throw' you into clinical placements whereas if you do bachelor's they sort of hold your hand when you start loool! But don't worry you'll be fine cuz there's alot...

    Is it nearly impossible for non-native speakers to graduate in Speech Pathology?

    Hey, I don't think you should compare yourself to what you've heard as everyone is different :) But I am going to be completely honest with you; I have had friends who had failed clinical placements in 2nd year because of their grammar and pronounciation (so work on mastering those :P). On the...

    Physiotherapy vs Radiography

    Hey, I have a friend who's doing physiotherapy and she's tiny :P! Also, my other friend who is female, just graduated in physio so I don't think it matters whether you're a male or female. I also know from another friend that the uni finds you a job in your first year out of uni (I think you got...

Not AS a pharmacist, but even just as an assistant or even retail...
