Hey guys do we find out our appointment times with our course advisor on AAD?

I called up someone from the student centre regarding this a few days ago. He basically said that you won't get an appointment unless you specifically request one. Generally, you're supposed to go to the AAD, find out about all the subjects, then go home and select them online. Well, that's how I intepreted what he told me. I'm so confused.

ken: Yes, you'll be given that information at your course's information session.

edit: didn't see the new page. In the book it says under course info sessions: you will also be given information about services provided at your student centre, including the details of your student adviser appointment. Maybe they meant how to make a student adviser appointment?

I'm with Jamison. I'm doing the exact same thing, Accounting + Finance. Accounting is much more recognised than Economics, Mgmt imo.

Also, accounting can be very interesting.

[I wish IB/FICC/ECM was back to its good old levels where it was relatively easy to attain jobs Then I'd definitely do just a finance major lol. We'll see, hopefully this major restructuring ends soon . ]

What do you mean by 'recognised'?

[AppleXY]

It's far more easier to obtain jobs in accounting rather in economics? Plus you obtain an accreditation which increases chances of promotion or further job prospects.

Accounting is just so versatile, imo. Almost every firm needs it and assurance/auditing is a regulatory requirement, so they should be jobs available.

Also doing science and hoping to transfer into veterinary science in second year, do vet interstate or complete science or biomed and apply for graduate medicine. I've been offered interstate veterinary science places, but at the moment I can't afford the accommodation

If you really want to do vet science you could get a student loan to cover accomdation costs.

NAB has one where you can borrow up to $20,000 and you don't have to pay anything back for 5 years.
See http://www.nab.com.au/wps/wcm/connect/nab/nab/home/personal_finance/3/10/

Pretty sure other banks have similar loans.

yeah, deferred loans is a brilliant method to finance uni costs. However, make sure that you check the interest and any terms and conditions. Unlike HECS, you will have to repay the loaned amount with interest during the given year, so ensure that you will find a permanent job by then.
