    Do you guys think a single commerce degree will get me a job straight away?

    Re: Would it be unwise to do a degree in IT when you are hopeless with computeres? There are other combinations which will fit well with marketing, namely media - which you can do with a B Arts, not sure how you would fare in an IT degree if you weren't interested in the area though.

    Abolishing Honours Degrees from 2013

    Interesting, well - with psychology, there are the graduate diplomas available which also give you the necessary accreditation pathway. If you do the B A/Sci - what honours degree would you do for psych accreditation? Would it be the same as the Psych (Hons)?

    Abolishing Honours Degrees from 2013

    I'm sure they will either leave the honours degrees required for accreditation/industry standards or come to some arrangement about those honours programs.

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: For bachelor of commerce (international) do you have to study major a language? You don't need to major in international studies to go on exchange, but if you want the units done overseas to count towards your degree - just make sure you check before going on exchange.

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: ANU commerce vs macquarie commerce which is better? Depends on what kind of jobs you want to get into or the sort of subjects you are interested in? Most of the majors in the commerce program will complement each other in some way.

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: ANU commerce vs macquarie commerce which is better? Get some work experience during your degree, it really boosts you job opportunities after you graduate. We have a Korean student society on campus, are you Korean? (lol if you are, they let you join the society) There's lots of Korean...

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: ANU commerce vs macquarie commerce which is better? If you choose Macquarie - just make sure that when they give you academic advice (i.e. during enrolment they'll help you pick your units) tell them that you want to be a CA afterwards, that way, they'll tell you which units you need to...

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: ANU commerce vs macquarie commerce which is better? I'm doing B Comm Marketing at Macquarie and I personally would have no problem recommending it to others. It's a good campus, with lots of activities and support and I like how we can do an internship as part of our degree. As for...

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: ANU commerce vs macquarie commerce which is better? What are you looking for? What major did you want to choose? And do you already live in Canberra?

    what is a good combination among these commerce majors?

    Re: B commerce vs B commerce/B economics abbeyroad has a point, consider what field you actually want to get into and whether the economics will add to your skills/knowledge etc as opposed to spending that year doing an internship or something else involving work experience. Also, I presume...

    Any University Accommodation that doesn't require you to pay upfront?

    I didn't know that they required upfront payment. You can try searching for private accommodation around the university area, you can start with this site: http://find.accommodation.mq.edu.au/ Also, have a look at other rental property sites. There are also lots of rooms advertised informally...

    Mathematical content in the Bachelor of Applied Finance

    Strange, I seem to keep missing the interesting types :D Though, I do agree that there is a growing diversity of career options for accounting students, and I have met a few fun accounting people - though mainly from auditing for some reason.

    Mathematical content in the Bachelor of Applied Finance

    I thought you were more a Law student or maybe something fun like marketing or media. And I just can't imagine an accounting student using that icon. Since you aren't offended by my sweeping stereotype of accounting students... can I ask whether you hang around with other accounting students or...

    Mathematical content in the Bachelor of Applied Finance

    Random comment, but you don't sound like an accounting student (apologies for the generalisation).

    Are any bonus points at all allowed to be applied to combined law degrees?

    Apologies, I assumed you meant Academic Advantage bonus points. Rural bonus points are applicable to combined law degrees: http://mq.edu.au/future_students/undergraduate/bonus_points/rural_bonus_scheme/ (scroll to the bottom of the page).

    Where can I get access to unit guides that show assessment and unit planners?

    Which one are you looking for? Some unit outlines don't actually have that much information in them, you can also get an idea about some units by looking at the textbook that is used - there is a text list from the Co-op bookshop website.
