    Difference between courses

    BCom, is less solid allowing you to do electives from other facultys and can cater you to do another major. And the professional accounting is built specifically to gain entry into the 3 professional accounting bodies with core subjects chosen for you and a few free electives, built for people...

    Best uni/course for creative advertising?

    Have you considered the marketing and media degree at Macquarie? it's integrated so that students can apply marketing in the media industry and its only a 3year degree. By any chance you later feel copywriting is not for you, the marketing part of the degree will always help. And if you pop by...

    Commerce required courses

    I don't know about the subjects for UNSW so it might not be accurate since I'm relating this to Macq, but my advice; Don't do Macro unless its part of ur core its much harder than micro. But if i were to choose i would do; •FINS1613 Business Finance (6 UOC) •ECON1102 Macroeconomics 1 (6 UOC)...

    Is it possible to do Radiology without doing any science subjects in the HSC?

    This is quite irrelevant to your degree, but I completed my HSC doing only general maths and business studies and I thought I'll die in finance and Economics but to my dismay I'm now going to choose applied econometrics as my major. It's not completely about what you did in HSC its about ur...

    Coming last in pretty much every subject

    People always say things like I'll kill the trials then after that I'll smash the HSC, what you have to realise is consistent effort is really important and if you're too far behind the chances of a comeback is really low. I've had friends who had a hsc mark of 82 after trying really hard for...

    Macquarie University Ranking?

    as long as Macquarie remains the top 10 in Australia I don't see a reason to care about their international ranking, besides a factor in determining the ranks are the students that come out of the uni. If you work hard and earn a name for yourself you can go anywhere and still succeed.

    Need help! Majors and Minors for Bachelor of Commerce.

    Both your majors sounds like branches of Finance/accounting, So Imo it is not a good idea to do Investment finance as a third major- you can try quantitative economics which can give you a more diverse knowledge I guess. For some unis like Unsw you can do a major in arts, have you tried asking...
