    Antibiotics: A Dangerous Pandemic of Overuse

    Naturally this doesn't count for all doctors, but this pretty much sums up the issue. Doctors want patients to continue visiting them so they prescribe antibiotics if the patient asks for it. The doctors don't care because it's an easy solution, the patients don't care because it makes them...

    RIP Phil Hughes

    It is a well-known issue in the industry - helmet producers have attempted to sell designs enhanced for a cricketer's but the uptake has been slow. Can't speak for the helmet that Hughesy was wearing at the time, but I hope this is the impetus which improves uptake in the near future.

    Reference Letters from teachers

    Where are you thinking of applying? I think it's worth having those reference letters, especially if you don't have any existing experience elsewhere. An employer always needs something to do a background check on a prospective employee.

    Antibiotics: A Dangerous Pandemic of Overuse

    They prescribe anti-biotics if they think you might have an infection. It has been used as a catch-all solution for years.

    Which whiskeys do you rate?

    Excel Training

    Learning about macros and Visual Basic would be handy for the intense number crunching imo.

    'What's your favourite alcoholic drink' thread

    Either beer - strong preference towards ales (both light and dark) and stouts or scotch - really enjoy the smoky ones rather than the standard JW fare

    Am I alone in hating airplane food?

    I think it depends. IIRC Air New Zealand only take their business tiers seriously for long haul flights rather than Aus/NZ.

    Student Ambassador Interview

    Nah that sounds like a general uni role. A Faculty SA strictly promotes degree programs for that specific faculty.

    So what are you guys playing at the moment?

    Fantastic. Loved the original to death and the new one definitely amps up the difficulty. I wasn't sold on the new graphical aesthetic when it was being developed, but after playing, I've taken a shine to it.

    So what are you guys playing at the moment?

    Binding of Isaac Rebirth. Play on PC and Vita.

    Do you have to be really smart in junior school to excel in senior, e.g 99.95 atar

    Re: Do you have to be really smart in junior school to excel in senior, e.g 99.95 ata A career path is never locked by ATAR. You always have the option to transfer if you don't succeed the first time.

    Medical Science or....

    The important thing to remember is that jobs these days usually do not come with a specific degree requirement. They tend to be broad (industry-based) and there would be a lot of cross-over in terms of actual work responsibilities. From my understanding, medical science is a much more focused...

    Medical Science or....

    If you consider going down the Eco/Comm route, consider specialising in health economics. From what I've seen, it's a growing field and would suit a combination with Med. sci.
