ah k fair enough..
12 hours a week isn't too bad, legally minimum wage is $12 aswell.. but alot of places don't abide by that.

So are you for sure going to Usyd now?

it's pretty shit because I need moniez.
I'm thinking of getting another job because I hate my current one + I want moniez.
Yeah, I get like $13 but younger kids get like $10. So I dunno.

Probs.
Only pros for UWS are:
-close
-scholarship
-Probability of higher GPA

USyd:
-Double degree with Engineering to keep my options open
-I like it there
-Prestige

So I dunno.

ah right.

TBH, if I had those two options I'd probably go with Usyd.. prestige + most likely better career prospects.
Although, if your looking to do postgrad med, having a double degree (5yr) undergrad course would probably be too long and too much work.

Yeah, everyone's telling me I'm an idiot for considering UWS too, but I dunno. :/
But if I don't like engineering I'll probably just drop it.

only reason to majorly consider UWS would be if you have the confidence that you can get a good GPA and if/when you retake the UMAT get a competitive score to gain a 1st year transfer. Otherwise, Usyd sounds really good.

You don't need to be attending UWS to transfer into its med degree.

yeah i know.. i was referring to the likely decreased UMAT requirement if you go for an internal transfer from an Adv degree.
