Unless its something with introductory courses overlapping e.g ENG/MATH + CS, go ahead.@ExtremelyBoredUser yeh, like kkk579 says why is it bad?
If you're capable to get into Co-Op then apparently the internships aren't worth it since you can get internships by yourself. Not saying this from experience but this is what I regularly hear, ppl do Co-Op for 1-2 years then drop out of the Co-Op because they're able to get higher paying internships.saw a post on SAT fb page roasting the coop scholarship bcz it wasn't worth it.. rip
Lol I still get questioned why I didn't do engineering by my momnah dude, its a matter of time be4 her parents force her. I've seen this happen be4. The parents 'state' that theiur child can do wtf they want. but when they get 99.95 atar bc less stress, one way trip to med school, and the rest is history.

No idea about Co-Ops, I'm sure someone else knows more abt it but thats what swayed me to maths.
nah do coop so you get the first internship. after the first internship, getting higher ones r ez. that's when u drop. but ye getting the first one via coop makes ur life so much easier@Aeonium
On a serious note, ignoring the trolling, I wouldn't go for Co-Ops unless its for actuarial. I realised I am not as interested in financial mathematics or what actuarial lifestyle entails after speaking to Co-Op ppl and other actuaries. I'm much more happy with a scholarship and doing maths since its something I'm willing to work through.
Don't choose degrees on the basis of "High ATAR requirement", "prestige" etc. Go for broad scholarships and you'll be fine. I really doubt anyone here will have the will to persevere and excel in subjects they couldn't care or hate for uni. Keep this in mind before you go to uni.
another thing with doubles is that it gives u more time to stack up your resume with more work experience and ec's which helps with finding a better job when you graduateWell he did get a scholarship soo...
Besides the duration, I don't really see what's the issue with double degrees...
A good thing about doing one is that you can get a feel for both degrees and see what interests you more, and you have the flexibility to drop to one degree if you hate something
Cause you're in uni, I want to ask you this. From a non-law perspective, what is your opinion on law students? Are they as cunty as they are made out to be or is it just the rumours?Lol I still get questioned why I didn't do engineering by my mom
u generally cant apply for any good companies for internships, unless you are a penultimate student (2nd last yr of uni). Coop allows for u to get a good internship before the penultimate year.does coop have exclusive internships or whatever
on 2nd thought, since coop are single degrees, it might be penultimate lol.u generally cant apply for any good companies for internships, unless you are a penultimate student (2nd last yr of uni). Coop allows for u to get a good internship before the penultimate year.
I think I've only met 1 law student in my whole time in UNSW and that's because he was doing a related math course. Haven't met with them, our buildings are quite away and we don't share any related courses. Way too far away from my dept/building xD you gotta ask a law guy themself or someone in the humanities bc they might share buildings.Cause you're in uni, I want to ask you this.

nah not cunty, sweaty maybe sometimes a bit pretentious igCause you're in uni, I want to ask you this. From a non-law perspective, what is your opinion on law students? Are they as cunty as they are made out to be or is it just the rumours?

This guy's a legit law student...Some are but mostly rumours
How's law btw? What you studying so far?Some are but mostly rumours
For law it's mainly just the foundations, history and skills needed to be a good lawyer etc. A bit boring but the econ subjects right now are interestingHow's law btw? What you studying so far?
Yeah idk I only know one person that does law at usyd, sounds about right thoughOk fair enough.
That is just UNSW though. The USyd variety are a different breed. A strange mixture of angst, paranoia, avarice, and GPS school dickheadery. (from what I've heard)

Also, is it best to do a combined degree with law? I've heard mixed opinions on this. If so, what degree to pair it with?Yeah idk I only know one person that does law at usyd, sounds about right though
Yes, it is much better to do a double degree for law, makes you stand out more to employers than just a single law degree. In terms of what to pair it with, it's completely your choice, whatever your interests are. I chose Econ because I find it interesting. The only thing I wouldn't combine it with (although you still can) is actuarial studies, that would be so much work.Also, is it best to do a combined degree with law?
