    Can I bump this, it's those last fews days before the CAO closes and I'm trying to nail down my choices :rolleyes:

    I'm kind of stuck between these three as well, does anyone have any experience that could help?

    Thanks!

    So first off I would say if it is between Commerce and Commerce and French, pick the one with French. To be honest, there are thousands of Commerce graduates so anything that would give you the advantage and differentiate you from others is a good thing.
    Accounting then is a very good degree, the only thing I would say is to make sure you know what your getting yourself into. I wanted to do Accounting in 4th year and I went on work experience there and hated it. Workers in there even told me not to do it as it was far too repetitive. Saying that though you'd have lots of options and wouldnt have to just go into an accountancy firm.
    Would ye not consider doing Finance? Its a very good degree and theres a bit of variety in it too. BIS is also worth looking at. Job prospects are brilliant for it.

    Hope I was of some help!
