    So i choose UTS over USYD or UNSW.

    I was also dead set on Sydney University, i got sucked into the mindset of prestige over everything. I chose uts because the course is better, employers in the industry recommend uts, it is flexible, it is more practical, and the environment when i went to the advisory day, was fantastic. go UTS!!
