I got 88%, was first in the course. Was marked harshly which I guess is beneficial, however I was hoping for over 90, heh. Ah well, my average before the trial was 96%, so I guess it still sits ok. :) Nice marks to everyone else out there!

I was only kidding, sorry. Don't have anything against tax at all.

Sorry! Meant Business, heh. Commerce at UNSW is the other I'm going for!

Nice nice. See, that's different to what I was told, but I think I'll take your word for it! Heh. Looking forward to it either way. Just glad it's not Tax. *Grin* Sorry, had to throw another tax attack in there O:)

Hey, see what you all think of the UAI I'll get. Business Studies - 1/18 - Averaging around 90% Biology - 1/60 - Averaging around 93% Modern History - 1/18 -Averaging around 96% TVET Accounting - No idea on the ranking, but looking at marks of between 85 - 100 in all my assessments. Advanced...

Heh...Business Assurance isn't Auditing! It's more checking systems businesses/companies have in place, and giving advice on how they can change/improve such things! The auditing is the Financial Assurance side of things! Business Assurance is more IT based I guess you could say! At least...

Heh. Yeah, I'm more interested in Business Assurance. I think it's more beneficial to all involved!!

Ah...say no more. :P Evil Tax people!

Well what line of work are you in?

Yeah I'd agree with the HSC marker, heh. I've done Modern History in year 11 and 12, getting a few 100% marks along the way! The way to get the good marks is simply to know the syllabus back to front. Know dates, figures, places and events - that way, if it's a question say about trench warfare...

Hehe. I'm in the Assurance trainee program for next year! Go Assurance! :)

Hey guys, I've accepted the offer with PwC as I've said before, however I'm unsure which Uni course to pick. The business degree at UTS looks very attractive, however a commerce degree at UNSW and Macquarie would also be great degrees I imagine. What do both courses offer? How do they differ...

You need to get into UTS, Macquarie or UNSW. The UAC book is out now, this year's UAI's were 95 for UNSW, 91 for UTS and 83 or so for Macquarie. They won't change too much for next year - so you just need something along those lines! :)

re: Year 12 Modern History Great to hear mate. Firstly, congratulations on being offered an accelerated course! Well I'll go into brag mode for a minute, heh. I came first in Business and TVET, and 2nd in English last year - and really, Modern was the easiest course for me. Business studies...

re: Year 12 Modern History Modern is a great subject. I came first in the preliminary course, and am currently ranked 1st in the year 12 course. It's extremely interesting, but as others have said - you need to be committed to writing essays. Lots of essays. Although if you have a great memory...

McGrathNicol called me oh, about 2 weeks ago now.

Just got a call for an interview with RSM BirdCameron - shame I've already accepted PwC, heh. Anyone else heard from them, or McGrathNicol? Got offered interviews for both, but haven't seen anyone else post these two firms (Who both looked very interesting) Btw, that tax statement made my eyes...

I'm thinking a little more formal than that, heh. The invite says, "Smart/Business"...not Smart/Casual..

Nope, they didn't send confirmation. But you would have received a phone call, if they were going to offer you an interview. They called me for a first round interview, but they were holding them the same day as my Conquest - D'oh!

You just need one to get you into either of the Universities they give us. So NSW Uni you'll need a UAI of around 93 or so, UTS about 90 - 93, Macquarie about 86 or 87. So basically, you just need to get into one of those Uni's to qualify
