B Health Sci OR B Exercise&SportSci/Nutrtion??? (1 Viewer)

[waifung]

Hey BOS people

I completed my HSC at Fort Street High 2008 and got a UAI of 94.80. I have two offers:

1. B Health Science at the Uni of Sydney (80.10 cutoff) [ 3 Years @ Camperdown Campus]

2. B Nutrition/B Exercise&Sport Science at the Uni of Sydney (94.1 cutoff?) [ 4 Years @ Cumberland Campus]

I am currently stuck between the two courses. My plan is to transfer into PHYSIOTHERAPY after a year or do that guaranteed entry via Health Science route. How difficult is it to transfer after doing 1 year of a course? and will i have to redo first year if i do health science or nutrition??? Will the higher uai cutoff course (nutri) make it easier?

What do you all think??? please include pros and cons.
(Feedback would be MUCH appreciated as i need to enroll into a course quick)

i'd personally go for health science, since it still gives you a chance if for some reason you don't manage to transfer (i.e. you can do masters after your degree). besides, its a year shorter.
i think it'll also give you a more 'rounded' view, whereas ex/sport sci and nutri is more specialised.
oh, and if need a high mark (credit or D or whatever you need), i'd say it'd be easier to in health sci (because of the relatively weaker competition).
