It’s pretty obvious what I voted right? The majority disagrees but all I see is that the grand total of $766 is 5 times more expensive than the #2 rank spot of Law.
Well… it’s like shopping. In the long run it’s not so much as how much you had to pay but if it was worth the money. At the moment… I’m really not so sure to be honest. Feels like a designer bag that only fits a piece of gum.
How many are going to pass though? Arts has definitely not done enough marketing for this fee!!
