I wouldn't think they would be. Internal transfers are quite possible but it may extend the degree a bit.

(roughly) 11 hours left to decide.
Fun times. :P :-[

Currently, what are you thinking of? or are you still 50/50?
Jimmmy:
Comm Pros:
- very applicable skills to what I want/need to learn (accounting, balancing my finances/books, excel skills etc.).
- keeps a stronger option open for the business law side of things.
- I did BusMan in VCE and thoroughly enjoyed it.
- Seems a little more logical in terms of thinking process versus Arts, which I like.
Comm Cons:
- It seems a lot more competitive, and probably more time-consuming.
- I didn't do amazingly well in Methods (32 raw) and didn't do Accounting or Eco, so I'm going into it basically blind.
- I'm not sure how good I'll be at it.
Arts Pros:
- It's a bit of an easing into the Uni landscape from what I've heard.
- I'd probably take Int. Relations/Politics subjects, which I'm very interested in also and probably enjoy a bit more than the Comm side of things (although I've had more experience with the Int. Relations/Politics because I did GloPol in Year 12 as well as Legal).
- Lots of public figures who went into Law/Business-y things did Law/Arts anyway (if I was thinking in terms of public figures, Turnbull comes to mind).
- I'm pretty confident I'll do well in it.
Arts Cons:
- I'm not sure how those skills are valued by employers in comparison to Law/Comm graduates and other Law degrees.
- Seems like there'll be a lot of overlap from Global Politics from what I've heard, more holistic but I'm not sure what skills I'll actually be adding beyond what I learnt in Year 12.

Hope you can relax a bit more now that the decision is made
