    COD4 modern warfare hackz glitches & cheats

    Hacking isn’t going to improve your skill (in your case make up for any inadequacies…) nor will it change the fact you are an idiot. If you weren’t an idiot id tell you to google “cod4 hacks”, but you would be better off googling commonsense... oh and “1337” speak doesn’t make you “pro”.

    What bank accounts should I get for my needs?

    Unless youre still a student you will end up paying fees to maintain both bank accounts. You can open a "streamline" account with CBA where wages etc will get paid into. You can open a netbank account which is linked to a streamline account, interest rate is roughly 3 or 4% also there are no...

    how to obtain etra ATAR points

    Thats how I got into the ABL degree, its not terribly difficult to maintain a credit average either. After your first year speak to the course co ordinator and get the course transfer form filled out. The UAI/ATAR score for BBC has been between 60-70(last years cut off was 72.55), bonus...

    Referencing ???

    Theres a referencing guide avialable from the UWS library website. Its really useful I use it all the time with assessments. This is from the referencing guide, you still need to do a list of references at the end of the journals btw. Using direct quotes: Gardner and Palmer said...

    There’s no harm in trying, you should try get in contact with the grad recruitment teams of each firm and ask them directly since you do have a commerce degree already. If they want you to be in your penultimate year, just wait it out, there’s plenty of first year programs that you can apply...

    Anyone in Applied finance or just finance?

    Applied Finance is a Key program while Finance is just a major, alot of the units you would cover in Applied finance would be covered in the Finance major. So there would be no real difference in terms of difficulty. Check out the Handbook on the UWS website for more info on the units you would...

    I got a GPA of 5.0 (credit average). the only time i was asked to provide my GPA was during the online application process and on the assessment day because they wanted copies of academic transcripts. I never had to discuss my GPA during the interviews. I think anything less then a GPA of 5 you...

    EY. I had the same reasoning for putting no preference for a specialisation. I'm assuming you've done some vacationer program or part of a graduate program atm?

    Thanks guys. I was offered a position in assurance, didnt have a preference for a specific specialisation(industry) though. Ive got until the 1st of May to accept the offer, I will most likely be accepting the offer since I was declined at various stages with the other firms. KPMG finally got...

    I must admit i am quite happy with atleast two interviews, but it would be good to know the result with KPMG. Ive got alot of assessments at uni atm, so its a nightmare just working everything around just for these interviews plus work commitments. I imagine you would be in the same position...

    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    For KPMG I applied pretty close to the closing date, all the others I applied mid march. Considering that we have interviews starting this week, i think ther cutting it pretty close if they are going to invite us. In the KPMG email they said it would take 5 business days to reply, so they should...

    At the very least I'd expect a reject email if I didn’t get through. Same thing is happening with my friend though, hasn’t heard anything from some of the firms.

    In a way the development program is competitive since they only look at your Resume/cover letter and the overall application, there is no interview for it. If you can present a application that has a strong resume/cover letter you should be fine. They look for decent academic results, employment...
