I’m a Japanese undergraduate student, and I am planning to go to Business school in Australia from this August. At this point, I was accepted by the Australian national university, especially Master of business course. And, I already know that it is the best university and has best reputation in Australia. However, I do not know how brilliant ANU’s MBA is. I was also accepted by Business School of Queensland, Business School of QUT, and Business School of Griffith University. I have not decided yet. If I can acquire the reputation of Business course of ANU, I would decide which university I should go to. I was wonder if you could ask the question.

I understand that the system represents one star being rated or ranked least whilst five stars represents the most. But what does each star increment signify or represent, for example is it a total percentage of satisfied students surveyed?

She works in the Insurance industry, and has been asked by her employer to undertake some relevant legal studies. I'm thinking a few subjects from a Business Law degree that relate to insurance would be sufficient....can anyone recommend any other subjects/courses that might be relevant? Also, how many subjects do you need to complete from a degree, in order to get a certificate? Thanks so much!

As for me, I would rather be in an university that has good teachers enabling me to learn more and score well than to settle for a uni that simply as a good reputation.Cheers!

Ross Gittins says we're all just complaining about nothing. http://www.businessday.com.au/business/too-many-uni-students-cry-poor-20081202-6poh.html He argues that too many uni students have it GREAT financially and if not should simply suck it up as it teaches them to have some concern for the genuinely needy. Within the article he goes on about our fantastic HECS debt (ironic because my guess is when he attended an Australian University in the 70's it was free) which is fine for most of us because we're privileged enough to go through University without that worry of payment unlike other countries. After rattling off some figures he states "And we're supposed to feel sorry for kids who can't buy everything they want for a few years while they qualify to enter the winners' circle?". Which annoys me because he seems to refer to uni students as 'kids' constantly throughout this article and to anyone reading it not at university would maintain the image of a new school leaver living at home whinging about uni and their small hours at a part-time job. However, we all know this is NOT always the case as many uni students do not have the support of their parents! He continues by stating “More than 60 per cent of full-time uni students of all ages have jobs. Forty per cent work up to 19 hours a week, 15 per cent work between 20 and 34 hours a week and 6 per cent work full-time.” I would love to know of these statistics that which live at home with their parents and who does not. He also fails to mention that in Australia a full-time job consists on average 38 hours. He also fails to mention the added hours in which you place into University study including that stated on the Griffith website as “12 to 16 hours each week in lectures and tutorials, hours between lectures and tutorials due to timetabling. Hours assigned to substantial amounts of reading and writing which may not be directly addressed in class. As well as the recommended study of at least 2 to 3 hours outside of class for each hour in class.” This is what MUST be done alongside the added many unpaid practicum hours if you want to succeed as a University student. “Full-time students under 25 who live in group households have earnings averaging only about a third of the earnings of full-time workers under 25 living in group households – $270 a week versus $820 a week. But, on average, the students spend $540 a week each, which is only about 20 per cent less than the $690 a week the workers spend.” – An ignorant man and a statistic I’d like to find more out about as if this is true where do the university students find the money to support the outgoing debt – those parents again? Personally I live pay to pay and constantly find my bank balance in debt. Which is fine I figure bills out, as best as possible, as many uni students do, who don't live at home. However, there have been times when I have gone without eating, missed a day at uni because I don't have the bus fare to get there or MUST work to pay the weeks bills. Life IS expensive (anyone would tell you that) and for a student with rent, food, electricity, phone and net (even on the cheapest packages), bank fees, transport, semester stationary and textbooks as well as the credit card payment etc find it quite difficult. I am 24 and have obtained a full-time job since graduating High School. The highest possible rate I’m entitled to via Centrelink (including rent assistance) is $440 a fortnight. Yes, that’s $220 a week and this is to include my rent, food and weekly bills as well transport costs at minimum. With such uni students choose to let go of some of their study in order to work however, we then lose 50c of every dollar from Centrelink when we start making over $118 extra a week. This then rises to 60c when reaching $158 a week until cut off. However, the hours we have available to work are fair too few and with the need to work comes a loss of higher grades which at the end of the day for any true university student is the worst price paid. Students are not the worst off Aussies when you hear about carers of family members, the elderly and those on disability. However, when you hear the privileges the government gives to others and then you read an article like Ross Gittins – it’s a pretty big kick in the guts. We want to have the greatest available medical, science and education accessible to Australians but sadly, not willing to invest in such.
