I get 2.2k a year - was quite easy to apply for compared to the other scholarship I did.

I agree

Only want a job that'll give me good experience - doing a few extracurriculars though. Also it'll fuck my youth allowance right up (why work when you get money for free?) Been looking for a hobby for awhile - need to do more programming. Haven't done sports for ages - need to get in more shape...

Lucky i didn't do it then - last thing I need is weed :P Would have been nice to have something to do while studying though.

Most with a family just want to get their degree and get out - I doubt they really get involved in the 'experience' of university which is fine. I remember there was an older woman in our debating workshop though and another in one of the societies.

There is quite a spectrum on how easy it is to get a job with a science degree - engineering, computer science and mathematics would be the easiest to get a job whilst psychology and game design would be considerably harder. You have to look at what types of jobs you want to do aswell - my...

Not as serious as they say. We had at least one phone go off and someone left their calculator at home so they were allowed to call their mum and she dropped it off during reading time. I doubt the school uniform deal would be held up that much - we had people in board shorts with thongs on and...

Really wish I did this - would have done so much better at university if I went to military school.

The deadliest catch anyone?

I think any idiot can start their own business - I myself am the MD of a publishing company (that I don't want to talk about :cry:.) I can't really comment on the whole self-help business and I personally wouldn't be able to deal with consulting men on how to get women. Dealbreakers.com had an...

I refuse to contribute to the UWA debating union as there is too many law/arts/economics students who sit around and watch the news all day just to kick my ass.

This is true (trying to get my brother into trading because an English degree won't get you much else.) There is quite a strong bit of "HURR DO A REAL DEGREE" coming from me (too much captain capitalist) however I'm a strong believer of "if its not going to get you a job it's a hobby" and I...

Do you want to be an actuary or an overpayed mathematician? Most of the people on these boards want to do actuarial finance (quantitative finance) which is where you will be getting $200k+. This isn't just the case of getting a B.Sc though - you will be expected to have a PhD/Masters. If you...

Unwritten rules of Commerce/Business Forum / University in General: 1) You must go to UNSW or you will be exiled by your asian parents 2) You will not do an arts degree - they teach that stuff in TAFE 3) Economics is useless as an undergraduate - Keynesian Economics fails 4) IB was soooo 2007 -...

Stupid combination considering you could do B.Sc(Hons) + M.Sc or B.Sc(Hons) + get half way into a PhD, the same applies for engineering.

How good a certain sector within a university is really only that useful for post-grad degrees, I think people should chose their unis mainly based on the units offered within the degree - if you can get into an interview and show you are excellent in your field you should have no problem trying...

My Dad could beat up your Dad.

You are thinking of Bond University

Australian National University University of Sydney University of New South Wales University of Melbourne Monash University University of Western Australia University of Queensland University of South Australia

Do something you'll enjoy so you can forget about doing med. That being said don't do a shit degree like Woman's studies/Psychology/Arts in general.
