LOL the good news for you is, most would probably end up earning around $35k-$40k on their first yr as some sort of "coffee maker" or "lets blame it on the new kid" :jerry:

Right Ben? :lol:

Hope you didn't fail mate. If so not end of the world, just get a job and retake the subject part time while working.

I finished a double degree in Accounting and IS a couple of years ago and can vouch for sh*t Finance sector graduate wages. Up here I started on $28,000 in my first year out, thankfully though closer to 18 months later I'm earning over a fair bit more than that though still below the average wage.
