Not sure to be honest, but basically government is focusing on the hospitalisations rather than case numbers. Unless the hospitals get overwhelmed with patients probably not going to be any strict lockdowns like before

Because the benefit now of doing another lockdown probably outweighs the negatives due to it, such as further damage to the economy, worse education due to online learning, job losses etc. The government stance is around the long term response to COVID and cases. The main thing in terms of most...

Yes but it's based on some conditions as there is application process and mark requirements. In my case I had to apply for PhD like you are applying for a job. Had to submit a resume, research proposal, outline past research experience, supervisor recommendation, referees etc. I'm not sure...

The advanced science one often has a higher ATAR entry. In terms of the difference in the degree, you have to do the higher level subjects when there are options. For example, in first year chemistry, it was a requirement of my degree that I had to higher chemistry 1A and higher chemistry 1B...

Not sure about those 2 types of majors, however there are a decent number of companies like pharmaceuticals and genetic testing so if you look in the right place should be able to still find a job

Yeah can confirm 90+ is usually first in a lot of subjects 2nd Year onwards. Sometimes it's lower like in my 3rd year Analytical chemistry course I got an 88 which was the highest mark. A thing to understand for future uni students, uni marks are often raw marks and there isn't the same type of...

Aside from that don't base your decision for a degree off a scholarship. Although, it is great if that is the degree you want to do, that 6k a year is very little compared to the money you can make after the degree is over. In Australia you don't need to pay the fees upfront as it goes to HECs...

The science degree is not entirely useless. It depends what type of one it is though. If you are just doing a bachelor of science then yeah it will be difficult to get a job in a research facility or industry because you have no actual lab skills in the degree. By lab skills I'm not referring to...

In what respect specifically? In terms of difficulty it's harder because you have to be self directed and there isn't as much help Regarding workload this is dependent on the person. Factors such as the degree, your academic goals, are you working a job and travel time affect this. In general...

No need to prepare beforehand. Relax and enjoy the break. Once uni starts you won't have this kind of break again because you will be trying to balance studying with finding a job / internship at some point Don't buy the textbooks before uni classes. Often these are written in the course...

They can test aromatic compounds to some extent. Look at the data sheet for the C13 NMR it has the aromatic ring in the 120 ppm area. All you need to know for this is the simple benzene one, they won't ask further than that though Also that benzene one can still be named using that cyclohexene...

https://www.sydney.edu.au/courses/courses/uc/bachelor-of-science-honours.html Yeah looks like you can apply for it at usyd like that. Try research for mq to see if they also have it

You will have to look closely at your degrees if that is offered. Maybe try call up the uni if there is a help line about degrees and that matter. If it's not offered you probably need to do a masters before the PhD.

If you're long term goal is to go into PhD you should aim to do an Honours year in your degree. It's the closest thjng to doing a PhD that you can experience while as an undergrad

No I went Parramatta marist

If you rank 1st in the assessments overall and 1st in the HSC exam for your school, no one else will affect your mark.

You should ask on the UNSW reddit. Probably not many people here who are from university

All subjects but some can benefit more from having extra time to understand and perfect concepts such as maths or the sciences where it is problem based

I didn't say this before but the amount of work in that summer holidays you do should be based on your goals. If you are aiming for a 99+ ATAR, then ideally you should do more than that the next topic. From personal experience working hard during that time (while still having some breaks to play...

They would have already done the topic 1 since the Year 12 starts in the Term 4. So they should go ahead and try do the next topic for a head start on other students
