Nah, I'll probably be working as a preschool teacher or a tutor for a while. There's a ton of positions for both around here, and being bilingual I'm nearly secured a place. If not, it's not so bad. I have no debt and live with my SO, who has a pretty good job.

I agree business degrees are useless, I just had the marks to do the double degree so I took it.

I could never be an accountant, accounting is where souls go to die.

Once I am done I am using the business degree to get myself a better IT job. I enjoy building models and refining information systems and processes.

If I could do it all over again I would to IT/engineering or IT/science. The math scared me off when I signed up.

The social scene is crap compared to Griffith (most of my friends and social events are from Griffith uni, I live nearby)

You get a kickass new building opening just as you start so excellent timing, I had to put up with all the bullshit construction work.
Uhh, there is –NO- parking, so bus it or ride a motorbike in, the free motorbike parking rocks but I hear rumours it may be removed when they upgrade the road that runs behind the campus.
