how was that day for u?
made things seem more real, i locked in that term was one of my best terms ngl

just in general treasure highschool as much as you can because before you know it, youre going to be in uni reminiscing on the recesses and lunches u spent with ur friends just doing whatever. also uni just humbles u, like one my lecturers today was telling us about the depths of hell that people like to call the legal profession, it was brutal.

Wait lwk tho it's alright like the explanation are good on sum things but it doesn't have practice question and the textbook is not great either
the explanations in it are in depth enough for u to get the marks, if U want more detail ig ur gonna have to go and do personal research.

I know several people who joined the ADF post-HSC in a variety of roles.

They pay for your degree, true. However you are "paying" with your life.

If you are set on completing a degree at ADFA in Canberra, the ROSO (return of service obligation) is quite high, with some degrees and job role pairings amounting to over ten years.

Once you complete training, you quite often have no say in where you end up in Australia. Could be Tindal, Townsville, Holsworthy, Darwin, Woomera, or anywhere in between. It is also considerably hard to raise a family once you are in.

Yes the benefits are attractive: free medical/dental, high super, opportunities for postgrad studies, overseas postings etc.

But you need to remember you are becoming an asset to the government, a dispensable one at most, whether you enlist or commission as a junior officer.
