What job opportunities are there with such a degree Mr Sean?
Well I am doing it to get into research/academia. And I suppose there would also be the same opportunities I had after undergrad: some graduates from my undergrad degree went into jobs in things like trading / risk analysis / applied mathematics jobs for companies like CSIRO. Academia is much more appealing to me though.

Very broad questions. In first year many people do common subjects such as PHYS1131/PHYS1121, MATH1141/MATH1131. It isn't til their later years that they specialise. Consider these as building block subjects for later years. Computing? Cryptography, Data Scientist, working for Google - I don't know ask Goldfish I mean Goldy (he will be able to provide a more extensive list than I). ;P

These are the subjects, majors are different from subjects. But yes I will be doing a quad major.
I'm in second year.

But I'm thinking of doing the same thing, except swapping psych with chemistry :).

My first question was to ask you if you did UMAT in highschool.

LAST ONE. I PROMISE. When you applied for UNI, did you apply for math, physics, psycho and comp, or did you apply for something else that requires these great courses?

Thanks.

No. Why do I need to do UMAT?

You apply for a degree, then you choose your subjects within the degree rules.
