Bachelor of International Studies at Macquarie (1 Viewer)

[celine19]

Hey so I'm planning to take an International Studies/Relations degree but am not sure of the best option.
I've heard Sydney is the prestigious one but the ATAR cutoff is very high.
Macquarie's ATAR is 80.45, but is the course..good? Does it have a good reputation?
Are there other options? (don't have to be in Sydney)
Any recommendations would be awesome
THANKS

What're you looking for in the degree? Prestige matters very little in the real world, so do something that you think you'll like, look at the options they offer in terms of subjects, opportunities, etc instead.

ATAR's are not indicative of the quality nor difficulty of a course, simply their popularity, which may be influenced by perceptions of prestige etc.
