Uni students who work while studying usually have better pass rates - report

yeah nah, who would have thought having money for food helps you study better 🙄

Casey Adams2026-07-15T19:12:51.000Z

except most jobs students get are shit retail or hospo, not exactly career building mate

Casey Adams2026-07-15T19:00:51.000Z

correlation isn't causation. maybe the students who are smart enough to pass are also smart enough to get jobs. duh.

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T19:07:51.000Z

cool story but most students are working because they have to, not for 'experience'

Riley Scott2026-07-15T19:37:51.000Z

yeah but they'd be working anyway to survive. the report is just stating the bleeding obvious

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T19:24:51.000Z

so if my kid gets a job at maccas they'll get better marks? sounds like a load of shit to me

try telling that to my GPA mate, I was barely awake in lectures

this is just a way for the govt to justify cutting student allowances. 'oh you should work, it's good for you'. piss off.

Drew Parker2026-07-15T20:05:51.000Z

more tertiary students than ever working because the cost of living is a joke. but sure, spin it as a positive 🙃

Grace Patel2026-07-15T20:46:51.000Z

exactly. typical National government bs, everything's a 'choice'

honestly good on those kids, learning time management early. beats graduating with debt and no experience
