Seeking Advice: Best Bachelor's Degree for Australian PR Prospects?

Hi everyone, I'm hoping to get some honest advice from those who've navigated studying or migrating to Australia. I recently finished high school with good grades, particularly in Maths and Economics. After trying for a professional qualification like Chartered Accountancy for a year and not clearing it, I've decided to pursue my higher education in Australia. My absolute main goal is to secure Australian Permanent Residency (PR) as realistically and as soon as possible, even though salary is also important to me. I'm currently trying to figure out which bachelor's degree would be the best strategic choice. I'm looking for insights based on current job demand, strong PR prospects, state nomination opportunities, and employer sponsorship possibilities, as well as long-term career stability. I'm not looking for the easiest path, but genuinely the smartest option from a migration and career perspective. I have a real interest in teaching, but I'm unsure if it's a strong pathway if PR is my primary objective. For those who've gone through this journey, especially international students or PR holders, what degree would you recommend if you were in my shoes starting university soon? Which occupations seem to have the most stable and long-term PR prospects? Are there any degrees that might seem popular now but you'd advise avoiding for migration purposes? I'd really appreciate any firsthand, experience-based advice you can offer, beyond what's easily found on YouTube or from education agents.
