First of all, the cadetship threads have been invaluable I learnt a lot about the cadetship application process.
If the employer sent you a copy of the employment contract via email and the original plus a duplicate in the mail. How many need to be signed and sent back?
Also from my understanding a business/commerce degree is 24 subjects? According to the sandwich courses of university study and work I'll complete the cadetship in 4.5 or 5 years.
I have found a site called Spoonfeedme whereby I can learn some first year subjects for UTS and UNSW. I can study at least 3 there after the HSC to learn the content so I can attempt to study 4 subjects in the first semester whilst working full-time. Then subsequently 3 or 4 subjects for semester 2 and then 3 subjects each following semester and I would like to study in the summer session as well.
I am willing to put in the effort if I can graduate in 3 or 3.5 even 4 years so I can commence my CA sooner. I used to have a part-time job and I worked up to 20 hours a week plus involved with ECs.
I would like to maintain at least a credit average if possible.
Moreover over regarding an exclusive employment clause. Is it just a formality or you cannot have another job without written permission eg. Coles, private tutor etc?
Is it possible to work full-time and study full-time/overload?
Keep the duplicate and email one, and sign the original and send it off. Only the original.
Depends on the cadetship and what the structure of it is, are you working full-time with part time uni all the way or 2 years on and off etc.. but yes it should be roughly 24 subject, and on an average basis you finsh your course within 4 - 4.5 years
Waste of time trying to learn the content tbh, use your HSC to work and gain money and relax/travel etc.. lots of people always try and prep for uni courses after HSC but your efforts really become fruitless because your either not applying the knowledge, It's different to what is taught as Semester courses change regularly or you forget 2 weeks later.
How will you have time to go to university with 4 subjects at hand especially tutorials and the like? Unless you manage to slot night/evening classes for most of these it will be hard, and it's honestly sometimes a pain to go at night to university.
Summer classes are full-fee so unless you want to pay overpriced course fees I wouldn't try it.
3 subjects is very manageable with full-time work though, especially with first year subjects and planning your timetable properly.
If I were in your shoes I would take it easy and just do 2 subjects for the first sem, you might as well try and enjoy university as well abit instead of pushing your self straight on like that.
Maintain a high credit average for other possibilities definitely (Y)
Private tutor is fine, coles is not.
Yes it's possible but only if your work allows you to have extra hours to go to classes (as many are compulsory, or if you don't, you miss out on a lot) - and to be honest I don't think work will let you do that until you proven to them you're able to manage your time properly and/or passed probation first.
Your thinking too much into this, you should experience work and uni first before you come up with this plan, you need to see how well you react to full-time work and uni and manage accordingly, because it all depends on the person.
