Super Sammy! Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Why are you doing a BA and a BSc? To be honest, I'm not even sure why. I was going to pull out and go to just a BSc, but everyone else is telling me to stay in. thing is, I need a major for my BA, and I don't really want to do any of them...

JoBear Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 That's what I thought when you said about the major. I think you'd be better concentrating on the degree you do want and then looking at doing Honours/Postgrad stuff on that. Take a BA paper or two as interest if you want. I have a couple friends who have double degrees (BSc or BA's with BComs) and it made very little difference to anything. Think they just wanted an extra year at Otago.

The only thing that I could really get out of it is to do geography under a BA and something that leads to a different kind of career under a BSc. I need to talk to my sister anyway, she's doing geography at uni too so I can see if it's worth doing it under a BA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Oren did Geography under a BA, he might tell you what it's like. I had a friend who did Geography on a BSc, her ambition when she finally finished it was to go on the dole for last semester to stay in Dunedin while everyone else finished their Honours/Double Degrees.

Ah, that's cool. All I want to know is if it's any different from a BSc. If not, I might do something like biotechnology... that's a clever idea! She might've even got a fair bit of money out of that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkshineskitty Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 There's a helicopter flying in circles near my house atm. It's kinda freaking me out Googled to see if there was any news about why its doing it, but there seems to be nothing. Its been going for about 20 minutes so far.

JoBear Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Whenever things like that happens I check the trademe forums first. One time I was part of a thread that was following a police helicopter as it flew over the inner city suburbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She might've even got a fair bit of money out of that too I don't think it was any different to doing it as BSC, at least not until post grad. Then I think there was a slight difference in what compulsory courses you had, though I'm not really sure as I didn't go that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Thanks It turns out that I did get accepted into my course anyway, despite the fact I didn't even get the pre-requisites, wtf university. Oh congrats! Did you guys know there's a town in Tasmania called Penguin? Neither did I. No, I did not. "The town rejoices in all things ‘penguin.'" "3.15 metre (10 foot) high cement and fiberglass penguin erected in 1975 " Sounds like a good place to go to if I ever get to Tasmania. There's a helicopter flying in circles near my house atm. It's kinda freaking me out Googled to see if there was any news about why its doing it, but there seems to be nothing. Its been going for about 20 minutes so far. Police helicopters flying around my area is too common for me to get worried by them But if it was really near my house like you, it would be a tad more concerning.

I couldn't understand the damn booklet they gave me so I couldn't figure out if they were the same or not. I'm not sure if I'll do it under a BA or BSc yet, I'm figuring out what I want my second major as tonight... Oh congrats! Churr! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Ed_ Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) I just heard that it might be James McOnie. That probably means it's all a joke that's fallen a bit flat and got out of hand. I guess it kind of shows who's up for a joke and who isn't - he challenged Ana Ivanovic to a bomb competition at a Melbourne swimming pool, and she accepted!

_Ed_ Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 So pissed off with the Black Caps right now. What are they doing? They could have batted with some intent and set a target, then tried to bowl Pakistan out tomorrow. But they're playing like a draw, meaning a 1-0 series loss, suits them just fine. Really fucking disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me Rug I Sty Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 It's going to be an interesting day tomorrow... It'd be a really impressive victory, but there is still a sniff of a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 They have given themselves a chance now. Their approach was much better in the last hour. Tim Southee played awesomely until he gave Chris Martin the strike halfway through an Umar Gul over. The TAB odds suggest tomorrow will be an exciting day: NZ $3 Pakistan $3.50 Draw $2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
