Thanx to Minai & everyone else whose answered my Qs on da thread, i really appreciate it.
But now i got myself a dilemma. Seeing as though it's unlikely i won't get in2 my preferred Commerce course straight in, i've put Arts down at both MQ and UNSW.
oK here's the dilemma, should i do Arts @ MQ where transferring is a lot easier, but where every1 says its reputation et al is not as good as the Go8 unis. Or should i do Arts @ UNSW, where from wot i've heard its damn hard to transfer in2 Commerce, but the uni has a good rep, nicer buildings, better teaching, etc.?
Cheers GuYs

I agree
its much easier actually, if u are successful, to merge into commerce if u did arts @ UNSW in 1st year. This is because if u did ur degree at UNSW u are basically gonna get full credit for the 1st year subjects u did, whereas, courses done at other uni's will only give u 50% credit (meaning u'll be behind 1 semester). Secondly, arts is fairly flexible, and u can do 2 of the 3 core/compulsory commerce subjects in arts every semester (ie 4 of the 6 in 1st yr)

oK thanx, so if i did go down the Arts path, wot would happen to da 2 out of 6 subjects i'm not able to do w/ Arts, would i have to do it over the hols or somethin like that? And which are the 2 core subj u cant do in Arts?
Also, if i did mange to transfer, would i join the Comm course in da 2nd yr?
Well, u can catch them up in 2nd year, because u can possibly credit those 2 arts subjects u did as electives, which means in 3rd year u wont need to do elective subjects.
The 2 subjects, it depends on what u want to do, because in 1st year commerce/eco, u have to do Accounting 1A and 1B, Quantitative Methods A and B, and Microeconomics 1 and Macroeconomics 1
If u did transfer, yes u'd be in commerce, but u'd be starting ur major late, and would need to catch up on a couple of subjs.
