Urgent, I need advice about whether UTS Business is better or Mq commerce is better. I'm thinking of majoring in Accounting, Eco or maybe Management but I'm not 100% sure yet. Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated and before anyone says convenience, they're both around similar distance from home so dont worry.

They're both virtually the same in terms of teaching quality, prestige etc. UTS probably has a slighter advantage in that it is located in the CBD, implying you'll have greater networking opportunities/industry connections.
I'd go with whichever campus you prefer.

Macquarie has a very flexible timetable system, as you can pretty much choose which days to have free or squish your timetable into 2 days (allowing you to do work/internships on the side).

Macquarie is located right next to the Macquarie Centre
Ubar is better then UTS equivalent
I encourage you to visit both the UTS and Macquarie campus

Firms offering cadetships almost always recommend UTS because of timetabling.
And I'd pick the CBD over a suburban shopping mall

As has been brought up, UTS time tabling is pretty good - especially for business. If you pick subjects in the appropriate semesters, I think almost all (definitely all early ones) can be completed at night. If you dont want night classes, the timetables can also be made fairly compact. I dont know what MQ is like for this, but I can't see it being better than UTS.

Macquarie has a good student lead extra revision/class thing called PAL which I recommend you attend for accounting based subjects if you end up at Macquarie.
I should also point out that if you decide to go to Macquarie it is compulsory to do a people and planet unit as part of your degree.
