What would be more important for Environmental Science in Uni?

[RedMasta]

I need some sort of help here, as I would like to be an Environmental Scientist when I graduate, what would be the best path to achieve this?? 

[Icerock3D]

you could all of them, but cause it's a science you should do the science subjects

[pi]

Why don't you try the "Environmental Science" VCE subject, it'll give you a feel for your careers too


Otherwise, Methods, Bio and Chem are relevant. Spesh sin't really relevant to anything other than Actuarial Studies, a Maths Major and Engineering But as per the poll, if I were to pick two, I'd pick Methods and Chem

Why? Methods is a prereq for pretty much every course, so definitely relevant, especially if you have a change of mind relating to your career later on. Chem and Bio are sciences that'll definitely be relevant.

Not true, I would say I have to disagree here.

I would suggest the same as pi - Methods and Chem

Moderator action: removed real name, sorry for the inconvenience

[Special At Specialist]

Methods and chemistry combined will get you into almost all maths/science courses at university.

Yes, it will get you into all, bar actuarial studies (requires specialist maths)

commerce majoring in actuarial studies at melbourne uni doesn't require spesh, strongly recommended

[paulsterio]

No, it's required

Majoring in actuarial studies
The minimum subject requirements for a major in actuarial studies are listed below. Click on a subject to view the subject listing in the University Handbook, including information about prerequisite studies and assessment. These subjects are included in the sample course plan below.

Please note: Students who commence the Bachelor of Commerce in Semester 2 must have completed VCE Specialist Maths 3 and 4 (or equivalent) in order to complete the actuarial studies major within three years. International students who commence in Semester 2 and have completed a high school qualification other than Australian Year 12 are usually unable to enrol in the actuarial studies major.

Unless you want to spend a year doing maths

[pi]

Yeah, but most people start B.Comm in Semester 1, so they don't need to have done spesh (they do a catch up maths in Sem 1). Hence, not compulsory (although highly recommended) for most students.

Only those starting in Sem 2 (minority) need spesh as there is no time for them to catch up.

Maybe we should get back on topic? Haha!
