Glad you cleared that up. Are you sure it's your directness that rubs people up the wrong way and not your sense of humour?

u know "P's get degrees" and "50 is a pass, 51 is too much work"
my creed and motto throughout uni.

I agree - anything more than a pass is wasted time

S2K cruise to KKs huh.....don't laugh, I know plenty of people/clubs that do that....I've never done it though.

I'd be up for it, but someone would have to give me a ride. (seeing as though I don't have a S2K)

s2o0o - it's good to see you have everything planned....I still have NFI what I want to do and I'm turning 24 in 2 weeks time!

That depends what you want to do with your degree. Recently I've had cause to be very glad I did more than pass.

Hey i'm turning 25 next month currently climbing up the IBM corporate ladder, with a degree still unfinished, and playing in 2 different bands, only one of which is actually getting anywhere.

I have no idea what I want to do. I'm also in debt.. so hey, life's great.

my sister in laws mum is the HR manager for a company and right now for their graduate program they have 52 positions to fill and are only accepting graduates with a HD average so although some say P=degree.. sometimes this isn't the case.

My auntie is also the HR manager for another international company, she's based in Sydney and said that many firms let computers sort through resumes in the initial stages. Therefore they set criteria and any resumes/appications that dont fit that criteria dont even make it to her desk. i.e they might set the computer to only accept applications with a credit average or higher. so therefore, while P may equal degree, in some cases you'll find you need alot more than P

Nashiou - yeah I know. I was just kidding around.

I think if you are going to study a degree then it is going to be worth trying your best. As Queenie said, a HD always looks good.
