Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016 How did they get in without some decent fluency in english? GL to those doing comp1917 where we get marked on diary entries

It doesn't matter which degree you get either way, you're not gonna stand out to employers if you don't have good extracurriculars/work experience. If you do, then great you shouldn't be worrying about which bachelor of business/eco/comm degree you get, unless you really want to specialise in...

why does comp1917 have so many contact hrs? It's almost triple the amount from commerce/arts courses

Baccano was quite fun

Jap ext is between the n4 - 3 mark, but for both levels the amount of kanji you need to know is far more than what is prescribed in the hsc syllabus.

Best to check your school's results last year, see how many got above 99. What was the highest atar last year and the year before? Either way your friend would need to aim for 1st in everything
