uh wat uni courses do u recommend (1 Viewer)

[Eeko]

with a uai of hopefully between 97-99

wat courses and wat uni would be possibilities.

given that i'm interested in social sciences, dun mind math,

hate science

 

[Not A Carrot]

Well, you can cut out any course above (presumably) 99, any course that required early entry, and any science course.

What about arts?

 

[Eeko]

wat do u in arts?

i have no clue wat any courses are about

 

[Not A Carrot]

Perhaps you should look at some uni websites or talk to your career advisor, if you have "no clue". Picking a uni course isn't really something you should take too lightly, ergo it is not a decision you should base on the opinions of your peers from an internet bulletin board!

What kind of career are you interested in?

 

[Eeko]

lotsa money

 

[Minai]

I'd say Actuarial Studies @ Macquarie...but u need to be a decent 4U math student to survive that course

else I'd do commerce(honours)/law with a major accounting
u'll be guarenteed a job if your good enough, and well paying too, depending on your job

Make a list of the subjects you like the most (not necessarily things you do at school.. things you're interested in outside school as well!), and consider whether you'd like to be doing that from 9-5 for THE NEXT FIFTY YEARS (or thereabouts).

Believe me, it cuts out a lot of options.

 

[braindrainedAsh]

law, social work, communications, commerce, marketing, teaching.....

you really need to ask yourself what YOU want to do... not us!!!!

hey I like playing games and doing no work, but i dunt see a career path there.

no hobbies, don't like socialising, basically lazy.

at school i like legal studies (although i hear law is much more boring and i doubt i'll get in)

..... design? programming? professional beta testing? (well..)
IT if you're interested in the programming side of things.
Marketing, Commerce if you're interested in selling the final product

sitting on your arse all day IS IT, i have a few friends who can attest to this.. but despite the ok money it's NOT a fun job. + it's hard to get a good one, too.

commerce/finance is okay for a start, everybody will always like commerce students (don't ask me why)

eeko y don't u look at your UAC guide, u never know, you might learn something. like, as someone said earlier, it's not something you should take lightly

 

[Eeko]

ah i'm even more confused now

i don't mind doing courses with lower uai of course.

@natstar: if i can make enough money to retire at 40, then that is my definition of happiness

i play games and i'm clueless about comps

btw: got my uac guide today, damn all the laws are in 99s (in my preferred uniz), even acturial/law jumped to 99.10 in Macq

 

[*~Dazed~*]

what if you dont know what sort of job you want and therefore have no particular course to help in your career and to add to that theres nothing that you really enjoy so you cant do a course based on that...
am i destined for a future as a bumb with absolutely nothing going for me?

 

[-=«MÄLÅÇhïtÊ»=-]

hows actuarial/computer science

or just any computer science course. You said you like sitting at comp playing games. I like doing the same thing and I cained my computer science course last semester even though I'm clueless with programing etc.

hmmm is there any course that'll help lottery winning?

that looks like the only possible solution for me

Just make sure to put a course with a UAI cut-off of ~70 down the bottom of your UAC preferences, Frigid! (in case you leave out an essay in your English exam, for example)

that, my friend, can easily be solved by purchasing a pistol at one's local gunsmith and non-chalantly 'inserting' a clip into one's temple, whereupon one may see one's life flash before one's very eyes...
