If you guys could help a newbie out- it'd be greatly appreciated.
Basically...which course?
business administration/accounting
or
Applied finance/accounting

It's really the accounting degree I'm valuing since I want to take a shot into transferring to accounting/law...

Any advice would be great-!
Thanks in advance!

Getting into law through transfer is a whole different ball game to getting into accg

 

[Sweet_Lemon]

business admin u get to learn everything about a business..... plus ya accg degree...
applied finance is one of the specific course u do and it's not like the ba which is broad...LOL...but i'm not sure bout the transfer...aren't u suppose to do it one yr later?

 

[AsyLum]

For law you'll be looking to transfer end of this year until end of second year.

 

[jlh]

let me ask you...
suppose you don't make the law quota.. what would you prefer doing? applied finance or business admin? if it doesn't bother you and you are only concerned with the accounting degree, why not just stuff the double and do b. comm- accg??

oh and you can always take up post grad law when you finish your degree. so maybe accounting would be wise if you decide to, considering it is a year less....

 

[Sweet_Lemon]

if there's business admin, app fin and accounting triple degree .. i'd like to take it...LOL...haha......plus some language course.....LOL.......ekek~~~ dreaming before i'm falling asleep.....nites all~~

 

[AsyLum]

Haha, wait itll you go through a year of uni before asking to be anally raped by a rhino

 

[jlh]

hahahaha.. yeah maybe you should wait and see what uni is like..

you know if you really wanted, you can add BBA to your AppFin/Accg....

 

[crazy_panda_eye]

AsyLum: True that, but wouldn't hurt too much to try right? (please dont say otherwise)

Sweet Lemon: I totally agree they should create the BBA/appfin/accounting degree- it would be targetted at indecisive people who like screwing themselves over (I would make a perfect candidate T . T) btw "lei si doi loy" unless ur mando...then Im stuffed~

jIh: ...because...I want...to do...a double...degree....- but thanks for bringing the subject of post grad law, checked up on it and it sounds potentially doable- Thankyou

Again, thanks for the comments- most likely will end up with BBA/accounting.
Btw if any of you guys have any Books to sell could u email me on Ice_hinako@hotmail.com. Again much appreciated.

wel..other wise....i mite look at post graduate BBA course...haha.....wat's this cantonese stuff mean??? not the one on my signature though..i can tell..haha~~~let me figure it out..haha

[GoodToGo]

wel..other wise....i mite look at post graduate BBA course...haha.....

Ahh the MBA. The most prized of all degrees...for big pay rises anyway. lol. I would like to do one at AGSM after a few years in the workforce but law firms hate people doin em (they're scared that once the employee gets an MBA they'll leave to take up one of the 6 figure salary jobs dangled at them). Plus already having a BBA...getting an MBA might be overkill.

 

[jlh]

oh and if you didn't already know, you do an MBA, you'd have to gain experience in the industry. you can't just apply straight out of uni...

 

[Sweet_Lemon]

Isn't tat MBA has special MBA unis? post graduate course are not MBA rite???

 

[jlh]

MBA is still considered post grad. but you don't normally do them at a uni.. you do them at a grad school.. like MGSM or AGSM...

yea my dad's doin his atm, his wit the Sydney Grad School of Management .... not sure y his doin it though ....

 

[Sweet_Lemon]

oh.....cool.....coz i heard many ppl saying tat they doing master degree at uni...so i was kinda lost.....wat's the difference?

 

[jlh]

the MBA degrees are really highly regarded. they have their own GRAD SCHOOL within some uni's.. macquarie has Macquarie Graduate School of Management... .. usyd and unsw have their joint Australian Graduate School of Management... i don't think you can get a HECS place so you gotta pay upfront..

where as master courses are taught within universities.. that why you notice some subjects go beyond the 300 level units...

 

[Sweet_Lemon]

oh.........so they are 2 different course.....mislead by someone b4....LOL~~~~Macquarie Graduate School of Management,where's tat?
