    Difference between economics in BCom and HSC economics

    Hey Heroic, I did micro and macro this year. The main welcoming difference was maths. There were a lot more calculations, less essays. First year (intro) micro is MOSTLY maths while macro has some writing as well. The tests I sat did not require any statistics to be remembered. There is also a...

    UNSW Comm/Eco double degree opinions.

    Hey mate, I was in your position last year, comm/eco or B.Comm, and chose B.Comm because asking around - the feeling towards comm/eco wasn't that great. Since you are looking to do finance, I would suggest against a cadetship at any of the big 4 accounting firms. Also, at this stage, our...

    UNSW vs USYD Commerce

    USYD has solid opportunities during and after graduation. Some of my friends are interning at Washington D.C. this summer (They are only 1st years). Internships at big 4 accounting are also popular. Either way, basically the same man - just go where you think you'll be happier (srs). Your uni...

    Degree and Jobs?

    YES. Economics is still somewhat in the 'business' field. They have people with science and engineering degrees as well. I think with accounting, you best start early. If you prefer to study full time, internship is probably the best. After that, you are pretty much in, unless you majorly...

    Bachelor of Arts (Economics major) vs Bachelor of Economics at USYD

    Yes very different, if you want to get into the field, B Economics is the way. If your interests are broad, do Comm/arts or Comm(lib) - you can do arts majors along with business majors (including eco).

    Why UTS Business?

    haha I was being sarcastic man - just stuff I read on BOS before making my decision last year - completely wrong. USYD commerce is solid! (Don't feel the need to advertise the Business School and unintentionally come across as a dick- so no explanations on forums) Please explain this.

    Why UTS Business?

    Clearly troll. Average mark of 50.3? in Commerce? are you fucking stupid? Couldn't agree more. USYD is so theory based. It doesn't have tutorials or any practical assessments (srs). All students read textbooks from the 1960s in the ancient Merewether building. Everyone is also socially inept...

    1st year of uni over!! plans for holidays???

    lol. study ahead for what? Quite a lot of people went overseas (I did too), but I wish I worked in the holidays as well. Uni is stressful minus the whole 'end of the world' HSC/ATAR feel. Plus, you don't have ranks etc (unless you're top 3 in your unit) - so its more relaxed. enjoy your...

    commerce transfer :)

    Hi Jen! This is a very common situation and loads of people have gone through this! (In fact today, I met 3 people from USYD economics, who are planning to - and will - transfer into USYD commerce next year). Firstly, to transfer, USYD will take into account your university mark (usually...

    How does one pinpoint what it is that they arent enjoying about their course?

    Hey mate, The problem appears to be the social aspect of uni rather than your degree. Its good you realise you're confused (Strikes? - that shouldn't even be a factor to be considered here). I recon, just sit down, and think what the actual problem is - admit it to yourself, and then think...

    Canyou get into a business degree all different types with a band 6 in general maths?

    Re: Canyou get into a business degree all different types with a band 6 in general ma DROP MATHS. at this point - you shouldn't think about which subjects will best help you succeed in uni - that comes later. MAXIMIZE your atar. Get into the course - you'll be fine. some of my mates are...

    Which is the best Uni for Business/Commerce

    Does it matter? Replace in what way? Why do you come across as an arrogant dick? hahahah classic 'USYD is more textbook/theory/ less practical/ "I'll beat USYD grads in interviews because I'm so fkn well rounded and have great people skills while USYD kids are socially inept" dat perception...

    I need the answer for this tutorial (ECON1001)?

    I don't think you are allowed to upload those. Why do you need it? The exam finished today + they upload answers anyway? Or is Alex Hing trolling with students again. Which one are you having trouble with?

    Economics/Law at Usyd or UNSW?

    Eco/Law. Do it at USYD. Follow Tone abet's path.

    If you are standing at 75WAM average at MQ should I transfer to UNSW still???

    are you trolling? If you aren't - wouldn't employers be aware of this fuckery?

    transfer from arts to law

    Hey mate, Yes, you're correct its 50/50 WAM/ATAR, but if your WAM is 85, and ATAR is 70, they will ignore your ATAR and take the WAM. They will take the BETTER of both. In regards to your earlier question about pulling 82 WAM, you definitely can! But it will require some good effort. I...

    Employment Experience vs Foreign Exchange

    5 years of relevant work experience when you graduate? part time? I think go for exchange! Wouldn't 'large firms' like fresh graduates anyway? (Given they have some work experience and all that other stuff). haha really like your plan with Europe though !
