Depends on your majors.totallybord said:
1. Translating--yeah, I heard there's some kinda course you gotta take, but really not sure at all about that--someone mentioned it in passing when she said she would love to work in France.
2. Fair enough. Most people it seems go overseas and teach English and that's all there is to that teaching side.
3. Presentation thing? Hmmm, not sure about that. But my two friends are lined up already--one's father is a property developer and the other has connections in HK. I'm guessing not a lot of presentation would be needed if it's office work, which is what my friends seem destined for.
4. Yes, you need to do a med degree, which qualifies you as a "general" sorta doctor, but to be a paediatrician you need to complete further training with the Australian paediatrician college. Basically, it'd be:
Med (6 years) --> graduate --> work 1 (or is it 2?) years as an intern so that you're a qualified medical practitioner --> pass registration exams --> you're now a qualified medical practitioner --> further training with appropriate specialist college --> pass exams --> paediatrician.
And finally...yeah, another friend of mine is in second year at USYD, liberal studies too. She's majoring in Japanese and has changed her science major twice if not three times already so I have no idea what's up with that. But she would like to go to Japan--she's currently working at a Japanese restaurant at Castle Towers so she's really into Japanese. She *was* planning to do physiology, then changed to molecular bio, or genetics, but I have no idea what she was planning to do with that.
