There are fairly big debates about which is better, but i suggest you discover which one you prefer for yourself.

Essentially tho,

Asian = UNSW
Curry = UTS
Mix = Usyd
Bogan/Wog = UWS

Have fun.

No, that is... completely wrong. Not only are there more like... Australian asians at unsw, there are also more exchange student asians at unsw.

The University of New South China.

ACU has alot of females because alot of teachers who want to teach in catholic schools go there i think...

Anyway, the hottest chicks are at usyd imo.

uai cutoffs is an inflation mark

the number of people demanding the course determine the cutoff(the more people the higher the cut off,it does not determine which course is better)

example unsw accepts 200 students for mechanical engineering,therefor they have a lower uai cutoff ,where as at sydney uni they dont accept as many poeple something like 50(not sure but alot less) hence higher uai


the uai cutoff is a rough estimate as to the lowest uai mark that people entered that course



from what i hear unsw is better than usyd for commerce as most business giants tend to go for unsw grads over usyd grads


unsw>uts>usyd

reputation.

employers apparantly prefer students from more prestigious unis

eg, USYD > UWS

plus some courses at different units are structured differently so you should read up on what suits you more.

UWS (where i currently am) has a structure that suits me the most, but USYD structure is just as good and has more prestige, so im trying to transfer from UWS to USYD.

macquarie is more asian too lol
Granted, the accounting/commerce at MQ is almost all asian.

However the other courses - namely SCMP (sociology, cultural studies, Media studies and philosophy), business and humanities are a mix.
