Melb vs Monash

[vcaa]

[Kopite]

melb.

It depends on what you want. Do you want the choice of a double degree? If you do Monash.
Do you mind being forced to do 25% of your course in areas of study that have nothing to do with Commerce?  If you DO mind then choose Monash.

If you like the Melbourne Model and don't want to do a double degree then Melbourne is probably your choice.

Choose Melbourne if you want the best quality education. You can't do double degrees, but if you do one degree after another it takes about the same time, sometimes a year longer.

No it doesnt...

if you wanted an single undergraduate degree anyway you most likely wouldn't do another undergraduate degree just after finishing your previous one. You would most likely want to do a post graduate degree or honours.

This is not necessarily the case. For example, I'm doing Business Law, Corporate Law and Tax Law all as breadth. I would argue they have a lot of relevance to Commerce? Furthermore, I did economic history as a breadth last year, and my remaining ones are property market subjects.

So, that comment isn't completely true.

well if you didn't want two undergraduate degrees you wouldn't do a double degree.

Yes you would, because an Arts/Commerce double degree for example lasts 3 years, whilst doing Arts then Commerce takes 6.

Arts\Commerce takes 4 years, and doing one after the other would take 5 years at most.

If your talking about Melbourne...its not 5 years, its 6. So I rather take the 4 year double degree than waste 2 more years of my life.

ummm no, Im not going to email them, because I dont really give a shit. but anyway, the website says that arts is 3 years and commerce is 3 years. So doing one after the other is 6 maybe? I dont know, maybe its their error.

[schmalex]

Well Monash's website says the same thing doesn't it?

[crappy]

wait, what? Im confused, whats your point?
