Chances are all those three degrees will have the same 1 st year core units i.e.
ECON110
ECON111
STAT170
ISYS123 (best to choose this, its the easiest)
MKTG101
BBA1xx
ACST101
ECON141
ACCG100 and ACCG101 or just ACCG105(if u absolutely hate accg coose 105)
These are basically ur unit options for 1st year for those 3 preferences, i did the ones in bold. U will have excellent lecturers for ECON110 (WHitehead and Turnell). ACCG100 and 101 u will have the deupty-chariman of CPA AUstralia, Alex Malley. U will have Frank for ISYS123, excellent guy, good humor makes us laugh like Alex.
FOr ECON111 u will have Mcharg most likely, excellent lecturer, knows his stuff very well, makes good jokes.
FOr the tutes, they are big since 1st year is mostly core units, ur looking at around 20, and chances all all your tutors are Asian and some with dodgy english. The lectures reange anywhere from a full 500 people lecture to about 100-150 in large room (coz everyone jigs eventually) to about 50-100 in a medium size room
As for the ladies, u have to speak perfect cantonese, mandarin or shanghai to get along , most of them are fobby asians who mostly have dodgy english. There are a few good ones, but chances are, u missed out, which means u better start hanging around the PSY, SCMP and HIST and AHST departments (consider yourself lucky PwarYeux, asylum and phoenix) and dont hang around IT and ICT departments (ask dotty why
)
The demographics are mostly asian, ranging from 90% asian in ECON141 to about 50-60% asian in ECON110 and most accg students are asian, in fact i think more than half of the entire ECFS students are asian,
All elctureres are good and some can send u off to sleep, its mostly the content not the lecturer, they are firendly on a one on one basis if u need help with something and provide regular advice over forums.
The workload is simple, if u take the right steps and do the hour they tell you correctly (no one i know does this), u end up doing very well, but if u go half ass and still put some heart into your work a credit average is obtainable in ECFS department, distinction average is harder to achieve and something that is very very very commendable to achieve, i think theres a small handful of those ECFS students here who have achieved it.
As for gatherings, there are special barbecures with only ECFS students invited or those in your unit. these gatherings involve free BBQ and giveaways during days like Easter and special days, not to mention ECFS society students gets a harbour cruise or something.
Hey Supra, i can picture Westcott as a turtle head, i also had arthur dann, nice guy to help u with the problems and theres something else that is hinted in his voice and t shirts, but overall hes an excellent tutor ver generous witht he marks to the class
