if you do take to option of going to unsw or usyd, it would be a good idea to like take some work experience in your own time to get a greater understanding into your future career prospects, like at least you know what your going to get into before hand.. and the 'actual requirements needing to be filled' ... and through a variety of jobs or so.. it would enable you to land a job faster then those in the university doing the same course.. that didn't bother taking the option of doing some self learning..
knowning the work is something.. but how you are meant to handle it is something to be known only through experience
