    Maths in B.Business

    I'd say 2U Maths is definitely helpful to have (for majoring in finance/economics) and general maths is good as a minimum. If you haven't done maths since year 10, then you should probably use one of the free bridging courses :) Oh and as another poster mentioned, UPASS sessions are really...

    What's it like? BCOM at UWS?

    Sounds like a difficult situation.. well I can sort of help you out with the accounting part - yep it's hard. I have friends that majored in accounting at UWS and some accounting subjects have really high fail rates. I myself hate accounting (because let's face it, nothing ever balances). Also...

    Help, employer ignoring me?

    I definitely think it should be more than $10/hour. You should definitely know your rights as an employee. Also prior to starting work you have to sign a contract and all the information should be there (otherwise it's illegal). If you want to work there, see if you can join a trade union and...

    Cotton on christmas casual

    Everything depends on the store. I quit my stable job because I was reassured by the CO Store manager I'd be getting heaps of shifts. I also quit because I needed a change.. But yeah. Over the Summer I did 6 hours. Discounts are great, you also get more responsibility than other jobs such as...

    Stock recommendations

    Mmm I personally think that beta is important. But that's just IMO. And I normally compare dividend yields of all the shares in the same industry and their prices. That is, one companies shares may be cheaper and give a higher dividend. Most of the time there are imperfections like that.

    Stock recommendations

    At the moment I'm into: Origin Energy Bank of Queensland JB Hi-Fi Channel Ten Holding for a minimum of 3 years, ideally for 10 years and am buying $500-$2000 worth more every 6 months. Also if the company has a dividend reinvestment plan, I go for that straightaway. Currently got my...

    Which UWS campus is best?

    Campbelltown is hands down relaxing. Definitely chill and laidback. Traffic is really good and you get parking, also when catching the train, you normally get a 3 seater to yourself and can even put your feet up. Classes are a lot smaller than Parramatta. Parramatta, a ton more people...

    Enrolling in units and stuff

    I go to UWS. Don't worry, in my first year, enrolment stuffed me up too. Make sure you have your Student ID and Password handy, if you don't have it yet, call them up to help you with your enrolment. My instructions can only help you if you have those two very important things! (Also, I'm a...
