Going back a few months when SMH posted up how uni's are accepting HSC school leavers with ATARs as low as 30, remember how they said there was one student who got into UNSW combined law with 67 ATAR? On the UNSW stats website it says otherwise for the minimum ATAR (93 or something?, i don't...

UTS/MQ has IT degrees, not Computer Science. Alan Blair too :D

For some reason, Usyd has a few types of Computer Science degrees: - Bachelor of Science, with a major in CompSc (requiring 83 ATAR) - Bachelor of CompSc and Tech (81 ATAR) - Bachelor of CompSc and Tech Advanced (87 ATAR) (a very odd degree imo) - Bachelor of IT (Computer Science major...

L'Hopital's rule. I came over this in first-year Calculus, and it blew my mind - I was like "I can't believe this actually works!". Second would be Pythagoras theorem.

Just look it up in the archive.org or cache database if you really need it. http://web.archive.org/web/20110716070405/http://www.hsc.csu.edu.au/

If you want unsw commerce, then I would do uts business for the first year, do well (at least Credit average), and then apply to transfer. Simple. The prep program, in my opinion, there's not that much 'recognition' in it, if thats how i like to put it.

USyd, since they excel pretty much in both arts and law. The name of the uni kind of matters if you're studying law.

Yes, they only care about how well you went, not so much of what you units you've studied. Start off at UWS, then get Distinction average throughout the year, and it should be competitive enough for UNSW and USYD Commerce. Credit average should be enough to get into Macquarie Commerce or UTS...

Either way. Just do the a similar course at a different uni with a lower cutoff, get at least Distinction average (just to be safe) and you should be eligible for a transfer.

How is your performance in specific subjects in the HSC? You can get bonus points if you did well. Try putting UNSW Software as your first preference anyways, because you know you will definitely get the Macquarie offer anyways? Check here...

Whoops, didn't see that! Here's the 2014 link - it should work now. https://www.openlearning.com/courses/unsw/computing1

Joining the Open Learning site with COMP1917 (Computing 1: Intro to CS) would definitely be helpful and will give you a head start on what to expect. The webpage as you don't know is the homepage to the course, and you too will be using it if you take COMP1917 in first semester. It has the...

Doing SDD or Math Extension 2 will be helpful, but not essential. You can get through that degree without it. Probably the most important subject out of all the HSC subjects are 2 unit math and math extension 1 (for both Adv. Math and CompSc) .

You know you could do either B.Sc (Adv Math) or B.Sc (Adv Math) / B.Sc (Computer Sc). The first option is 4 years and the second is one year longer. You can still take the single B.Sc (Adv Math) and do heaps of Computer Science courses at the same time. According to what i've checked, you...

Does the course use your raw mark as the final result? I'm thinking about doing it next year instead of MATH2871.

COMP1917: Computing 1 Ease: 3/10 – This is not an easy course, goes over material fairly quickly. Content: 8/10 - Topics I liked were binary search trees and sorting. Most difficult were undoubtedly linked list I found. Lecturer: 9.5/10 - Alan Blair. I’ll admit that he’s funny definitely in...

How was the MATH1231 exam? Probability/Stats questions were harder than previous years I found.

UNSW and University of Sydney are great choices for Mathematics. For my first year of uni back in 2013, I've been to a non-GO8 uni (I shall not name the uni) and studied math there and the overall experience was very very poor (i.e. teaching, support, the number of math subjects/units offered...

Really hate having classes in the evening.
