Thanks Viv for clearing all that up.

I put in my prefs today, making BSc at Melbourne my first. I then have the Pharm Sci's and Law/Sciences.

Is it possible to want the "best of both worlds"-> enjoyable lifestyle + job you love + money...? Hmmm.

It's possible! If you choose something you're passionate about, eventually (if you're lucky), with hard work you'll find success, both financial and otherwise. I think in every field there are entrepreneurs and trailblazers that turned their passion into success

Absolutely! If you're passionate and interested in a certain field/career then you'll love the job. Once you gain the experience and become great at what you do then you'll reap the financial benefits and live a balanced/manageable lifestyle!

Sorry to intrude, but how do diploma subjects interact with breadths? If I wanted to finish my course in regular time, do the diploma subjects replace the breadths + a bit of overloading, or would i still be able to do some breadths if i wanted to complete my course with a diploma in regular time?

It is true that your diploma can be entirely breadth.
There are logistical problems. The max breadth allowed is not quite enough for a diploma. Therefore, unless you overload, you will have to go overtime by about a semester.
Some of your breadth subjects can be cross credited to your degree. Classic example is Maths Breadth which can lead to a Maths Diploma but can also be partially used as credits to satisfy the quant requirement of a Commerec degree. Unfortunately this does not open up more spots for breadth, it simply means that you create more spots for Commerce electives.

That's how I understand  things, anyway
