Nice to know we've got quite the presence here on Education Essentials. Time for some networking with my fellow business students eh? brows.gif

Also, still looking for tutors for Trade Finance and Foreign Exchange as well as International Financial Management!

Not sure if they changed syllabus or not but during my time ( 3 years back), I managed to score an easy 86  smile.gif

I think that's because you're the cream of the crop, judging by your posts. tongue.gif

Have you all gotten your timetable yet?

Yeah, I have. Kinda dissatisfied I couldn't pack everything into 2 days, but I suppose it couldn't be helped. But in particular, I really dislike having a lecture forced on me on Friday at 2 o'clock. ohmy.gif

Dear seniors,

where can we request for transcript of our results a? I've tried WES but they are charging $20 so i am scared its 20 AUSSIE DOLLARS! D:
*
Well I'm no senior, but that's the standard fee back when I was studying under UniSA/Taylor's. But since Sunway is a campus on its own, you might have better luck with the course management office?

Also, are you transferring to Clayton or something? ohmy.gif

I'm under engineering! =)

Anyway I have a question. How do I log into the computers in the library/ around the campus? Previously I've changed my password for my authcate and everything works fine except for logging into the computers in the university. Any steps that I have missed out?
*
Don't you need to go to the IT department first to activate your access? At least, I think that's what I did. hmm.gif

hey guys, just wondering if anyone has heard of some sort of dean's honours list going on at monash university. I heard that the top 2 percentile of each course are eligible, so what WAM would be sufficient? 85? 90? Whats the highest WAM that you or your coursemates have achieved so far?

Also, bbuscom students transferring to caulfield campus, possible?
*
Top 2%? It can't possibly be that difficult. My WAM so far is only 74%. Really need to ganbatte this semester. rclxm9.gif

Also, is it Top 2% of the whole course or will they pick aces from each major? Hmm...

The chicken rice + chicken chop set is still the best, especially when topped with soya sauce. biggrin.gif

Then again, I haven't tried the other, newly renovated stalls. Also, I'm amazed that that stall selling expensive plain burgers is still operating. Does it even make a decent profit with its ridiculous price tags? Wow.

I've decided to delay my graduation by 1 semester, because I'm going to switch majors. What do you guys think? Is this a terrible decision? I could use some opinion from my fellow business students (or others for that matter)!

Also, just throwing it out here that I'll be 29 1/2 when I'm done with my last papers. sad.gif

Switch major? I thought you are gonna take 2 majors?

Well if cost is not a problem for you then it should be ok.

Ya, Management is confirmed for me. Just that I'm switching from IB to Business Law as my second major. biggrin.gif

Hopefully lah it'll be okay. Just nervous about entering the workforce so late(as a degree holder).

Thanks for the words of encouragement, folks! I finally made the switch to Business Law and I think I'll do just fine with it. Still feeling bad about the delay, though. But oh well, there's a price for everything. :S

Also, where exactly are the sessional parking bays? Are they the ones next to the 'forest'? How available are they after, say, 10am or 3pm anyway?

Wooo, rationing of scarce resources. Microeconomics 101!

I hope it will only cost RM1, though. That is reasonable enough! tongue.gif

It's going to be RM2 as well. They sent us an email regarding this last sem.

Relatively new! This is my second sem here at Monash. And I guess I haven't been checking my Monash email thoroughly.

Oh well, it can't be helped I guess. RM2 per entry is still tolerable...I think. unsure.gif

Prettier means harder to get ler(for some of us). I'd much prefer to have more more plain Janes than more pretty girls. cry.gif

But anyway, yea, I noticed the trend too especially in the business school. I wonder why?

RM50 is kin of a steep price, though, pardon the pun. Is it for life or something?

Also I wonder if those rocks can withstand my weight. sweat.gif

Well i personally think it would be better to do two. If you do just one, then you have to fill it up with a lot of electives which is like basically all over the place.
*
I'm okay with taking up random electives, but what about job prospects after graduation? All I want is just my foot in the door, and that's it. sad.gif

QUOTE(RabbitS @ Sep 14 2011, 08:12 AM)
if the second major takes more time/effort... then i wouldnt bother

Exactly. Did you graduate with a single major? icon_question.gif

Anyone else going for the summer school in December? I wish I didn't need to sign up, but otherwise I won't be graduating in time. biggrin.gif

International business sure is popular!

Reason being why most ppl like to do 2 majors is that a course has 24 units (herein referred to as 24u)
One major 8 units
Core units 6 units
Balance 10 units; thats why if u minus 8 for 2nd major, u only have 2 electives to choose from.

IB is a rojak major, bit of finance, econs, mgmt so maybe u might want to consider taking IB.
Finance has good prospects, even better with econs if u can manage it. "London Tokyo NY HK" finance hubs lol

*
So other than that reason, why else would one do double major? You graduated, right? Was it a significant boost to show your prospective employers that you had double major? I really just wanna do Management. icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks, ceo, you're really helpful as always!
