Re: BAcc 2008...

i tried at 4 today and i got first call =]
So just to clarify, it's like 200 people that got selected? out of how many?
I know like 8 other people at my school applied and they were HEAPS smart like one of the girl has a 100% average on her accounting course but she didn't get in.

So how many of you guys actually want to do 'accounting' as in..tax files, etc?
congrats again

Congrats to all who got 1st round interviews. On average, 300-400 people are asked to come in for interviews.

For the interviews, remember, you love accounting. Go along the lines of "accounting completes me." *Tip: Accounting is a very general field, and sets the basic foundations to any business related career. As such, it offers many opportunities and different career paths.

Re: BAcc 2008...

The email that we recieved telling us that we'd got an interview said that out of 500 who applied about 200 got an interview... So the odds were against us the and they're certainly agains us now... How do the really good students stand out from the good students?

They said that they're looking to take 35 BAccs, but they took 41 people in this year... ??

I actually want to do accounting, but more in a finance-related role... I said this on my app form, so I guess they didn't mind. Accounting is essential to almost every business so it's a great way to diversify your options.

The email says that we have to email a copy of the part B form... Using Adobe Acrobat Reader, it's supposed to be saveable but I just can't work out how... is anyone else having this problem? Perhaps I'll have to mail it in, heaven forbid! lol...

Well, obviously the numbers quoted who get interviews/ receives places are based on what happened in previous years...its not an indication it'll be same this year.

There's been a bug with saving those Adobe forms. Perhaps copy and paste into a word document. Or fill the form out, print it out, scan it into a computer to resend.

Re: BAcc 2008...

yeah, i had the same problem with the application form so i've decided to go snail mail along with the confirmation of interview.

as for me, i'm doing accounting for the auditing aspect - combination of economics and legal studies my favourite subjects.

anyone attending BAcc revue night ?

 

[zdzislaw]

Re: BAcc 2008...

EEK! I mailed my 2 part B forms in...i COuldn't send via Adobe.
So do they think I'm a total idiot now?_?

 

[zdzislaw]

Re: BAcc 2008...

As for revue night question...possibly. Anyone else?

 

[dingusmagee]

Re: BAcc 2008...

YEAH! I got an interview to!

I can't save Part B on the computer either so I'm just sending it in.

Not sure about that night tho...

lol dw i'll join you =]. my abode doesn't let me save so i'm gonna send in 2 copies of part b and the confirmation form. we're in this together!

Re: BAcc 2008...

Yeah, I'm going to send part B in to UTS via mail... bloody Adobe, eughh! Do we have to send two copies? I faxed my confirmation of interview time sheet in yesterday... everything is happening so suddenly!

Not sure about the revue night at the moment, thought I'd like to go.

What is everyone going to do to prepare for the interview. Since we're all in this together I'm sure people won't minds sharing a few tactics around. So pumped for the interview. It's strange to think that we'll know if we have an offer by the beginning of next term... hmm, growing up!

I have the subscription to Adobe, but it still wouldn't let me save it. However I have apple computers does that effect it.

My interview is on the 9th July(wednesday) at 2:20
