Curtin International College, Perth in 2007

Anyone going there as well? I'm not sure if I should take the Commerce Stream or the Mass Com stream.

I really like languages and communications but my brother discourages that because he says it's hard to get PR.

x.x Is it worth sacrificing something I like to get the PR?

What's the demand for accountants and economists as opposed to Mass Com graduates' prospective jobs in Australia?

I dont want to risk my scholarship.By the way, I heard that the doctors are pretty strict on medical check-up. Scarry.

hmmmm.... according to waht i've found out:
According to the charts... for residents, income below 6K, the tax is NIL.

But you guys get taxed? blink.gif  blink.gif  blink.gif  blink.gif

edit: ah i think i know why... cuz your income will still be above 6K
*
i doubt student who works there dont even get 6k monthly.
normaly more or less income 6k are fix jobs.

student are not allowed to work more than 20 hours per week/month.
so we dont get tax. rmb only INCOME that we works not the income that we get from family

correct if im wrong.

Agreed. After all, think about it: why are you in Australia and not some two-bit, 3rd grade university in Malaysia? Its because we have the chance to go overseas. To study.

haha. studying during semster break too?i doubt you guys don't study all during the nights.

The latest rankings shows this (surprisingly):
Business & Economics
1. Melbourne
2. UNSW
3. ANU
4. Monash
5. Queensland

But take all rankings with a piece of salt because at the end of the day, if you look at the metrics they used, it can be argued that there are major flaws. Some unis get high average rankings because they have a big number of international students (Monash) and some simply because they dedicate more efforts into research (ANU) and peer exchange compared to undergraduate teaching, which I believe is more important as we are undergraduates. Some even grade unis by their entry requirements, which is completely pointless in Australia because the entry requirements here are based on UAI/TER and their equivalents and are scaled according to demand and supply, not according to the needs of the program.
