I definitely want to do accounting , but unsure for my second major. In high school I was really good at legal studies, economics and 2u maths. I was also ok at extension English. What major can complement (finance looks horrible though)
Thanks :)

What's so funny? :p
She said it's an essay writing subject and interesting
Is marketing heavily group work focused though?

MGMT1001 is a WAM killer, if this is anything like the management major than stay away unless you want your WAM raped.

I major in actuarial in finance, actuarial studies is defs not a wam boosting major unless youre a natural genius. Finance on the otherhand is incredibly straight forward ive taken 5 subjects so far with a finance wam of 90+. If youre after wam boosting electives for a particular major though for finance you can take BFM 3630 and ACF 3625, i think this is more beneficial than simply taking a wam boosting major since you should pick a major that you enjoy first and then pick electives that youre either interested in or that will boost your wam

Oh ok awesome
What about business economics?
I liked hsc Eco and got 97 for it but I don't like the look of
Financial economics
Does business economics have any career options and what is it like?

I thought management is kinda hard in terms of getting high wam. Don't do it if you have no interest in it, otherwise it's rather a pain.

Actually Financial economics is quite awesome, really no big differences between business economics but it specify the courses you need to do for you whereas in business economics you get to choose whatever you want to do, probably doesn't sound as good as other economic major in terms of professionality.
