the good thing about American system is u can change the major u want to take in the space of the first 2years. the first years usually are subject that helps you improve your writing/speaking skills. social skills n basic introduction of other Major subjects.. cause the important subject that related to your major usually been teach in 3rd or 4th.

another thing, lets say u want to enroll as a Business major. in the first few semester, you take subjects that related to different areas. Computer Science, Business, Mathematics and Performing Arts. after finishing few semester u get As mostly on the computing subjects and you really enjoying those subjects. so, you can change u major to computer science or something.

where else i think in British system. If you enroll as Business major most probably u would end up getting Business degree.

Define "fun".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I dont understand something. An Australian/ UK degree takes 4 yrs to finish. But you do every thing related to your major in that 4 years.

American degree is 4 years also but 2 years for general studies and 2 years for majoring.

So the question is, those taking australian/uk degree will learn more than those american?? Is it true?

You can't say which system is better than another. British system students will possibly ended up knowing mostly things that they are majoring in. where in American system, students would know the things that British system student learnt, plus they would know a bit more about other unrelated subject.

so, in my opinion American system works a bit better overall. but then again, it depends on certain individuals.

what is graduate/undergraduate study? im utterly confused.

I think they can, thats why they allowed me to enroll in ADP.
Is it hard to get aid, or scholarship or loan or whatever?
I dont really want to burden my parents.

I searched for universities that offer Real Estate major, but not many of them offer that. most of the universities that offer Real Estate are either private or really expensive.
but I found few public universities: UoMississipi, UoWyoming & UoMissouri.
