I think it varies alot depending on the nature of the organisation as well as the industry sector. e.g. to land an internship in IB is very different to say big 4 or management consulting.

Can I just jump in and say that whilst administrative fees/maintenance fees/flexibility in platform/customer service are all important factors, ultimately they are meaningless if the super fund itself isn't able to get you a good return. I remember those TV advertisements showing the comparison...

I went with Samsung because they're the only ones who will be able to maintain your IP68 (waterproof) rating on a Edge. The other reason why it's so expensive is because it's an Edge (both sides curved screen) - I asked around with third party shops in the shopping malls and got quoted...

I didn't buy from Kogan before but I do have an international model S7 Edge which I bought in Singapore. Don't do it. Yes the savings are huge but when things go wrong, you'd be amazed how difficult it is to fix. Both my wife and I moved to S7 Edge's this year and since we bought them whilst...

I picked up a Samsung 256gb T3 SSD for $160 in Singapore... very happy with this purchase.

Agreed. I thought I'd love economics given I enjoyed it in high school which made choosing two majors that much harder... but after just one semester in uni doing the first of the two core economics subjects, I knew it wasn't for me.

Re: From 1st December 2016 Demerit point(s) + fines(s)apply for parking in disabled s Also happy if they start giving tickets for people who park illegally (i.e. not a parking spot) and block traffic flow. Maybe if we're really lucky they'll earn enough from these and stop the focus on speeding...

Whilst I love the exterior of the BMW 3/4 series and the drive, they do need to lift their game in terms of specs and interiors given the competition from both MB and Audi. Audi may not have as much cred but it's a far better value proposition since there's much more negotiation room on the...

Old thread but here goes.. MAKE: Mercedes-Benz MODEL: C250d YEAR: 2016 LIKES: Comfort and look, driver aids, fuel economy DISLIKES: Lots of torque but not enough power FUN FACT/OTHER/MODLIST: Negotiated and bought it over the phone without ever test driving it. PLANS FOR FUTURE: Maybe add a...

I would caveat though that the B Business/Commerce degrees can sometimes be more appealing/attractive even though the subjects/content is no different to Eco. You'd also want to ensure that any career paths/etc you're considering aren't going to close any doors just because your degree has a...

The two roles are so very different... one is forward looking trying to manage investments and beat the market, whilst the other is a more risk averse role of someone looking retrospectively at things which could be indicative of issues either in the past, present or future with a good chunk of...

420i is incomparable with C300 Coupe. If you were comparing with C200 then it'd make more sense. General reviews say MB looks better and is more impressive, but the 4 series is sportier to drive and slightly better value as you can negotiate on price. EDIT: here's an aussie comparison of C300...

Will update you once I pick up the car tomorrow. C300 for sedan or coupe? The sedan C300 is the diesel hybrid which one of my friends has and overall the performance benefit is marginal and not necessarily worth the premium over the C250d. If it's the coupe C300 where it's a higher tune of the...

Re: Finance/commerce (accounting) or Law/commerce (accounting), which has more 'scope Most people end up doing Finance/Law. You'll get a decent appreciation of introduction to accounting in your first year mandatory subjects. 2nd/3rd year is really more for people who are intending to do...

At my friend's house and she just upgraded her internet to a new plan for $50/month in Singapore. I really hope I can get something even remotely close in Sydney once I move back...

Not at all. But it definitely helps a bit in giving you a broader understanding earlier on if it's something you want to pursue. I personally did it and whilst it was very rote learning and not great for scaling, quite a few of the concepts learnt in the syllabus actually come back not just at...

Ended up ordering another C250d since I actually really enjoyed the last one. I know it's same engine but w205 does look fantastic, and there's no waiting list so it'll be ready for delivery a day after I land back in Sydney later this year. The GLC250 was nice but had 8 month wait, and the...

Re: Finance/commerce (accounting) or Law/commerce (accounting), which has more 'scope If your focus is on whether your studies will be stressful, in all honesty, law probably isn't for you (assuming you are vying for an actual law role). That being said employment opportunities in top law jobs...

I'm amazed someone with that track record would find it hard to get students at all.

ahha... I forced myself to use the pen on my SP4 but unless my company allows me to use my SP4 for work (which they don't) then I'm very rarely going to be able to use it for anything meaningful. Would be great for marking up documents/scribbling on things though. For my SP4, I usually keep the...
