    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    On a less heated note I really did not expect this coming from a thread relating to savants and people with autism.

    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    - Thanks for patronising me, really made my day. - Also I hope you enjoyed the 'sic' sign I put in your quotation (i.e. I told you when you 'fucked' up) - Did I ask for anyone's sympathy? I believe not. I was simply giving my knowledge on the topic which I tend to have a great deal of knowledge...

    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    While we are discussing autism. When I watched Boston Legal and heard there is someone with asperges and I was amazed to see that he held his arms completely parallel to his body. Jerry is the first person with asperges (that I have seen) who does this. Another thing I laughed at was that in a...

    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    Firstly I accept that the big paragraph was needed to be cut down squiresshane990. Yet as Ash said I don't really proof read what I have written when I am putting it through a forum that has people write the way they speak. Now high school despite the start being a bit wobbly, I did find the...

    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    Hello, Yeah I read your post from before and quite simply kids at primary school are just downright mean! I actually didn't find out I was diagnosed with asperges until I was 12, I can remember seeing psychiatrists and stuff back when I was around 5, but being my age I didn't know what...

    Autism Spectrum Disorder & "Savants"

    Hello, I myself have asperges syndrome. This sydrome fits on the autism spectrum except most people with asperges don't have the same sort of thing as autistic people. i.e. People with asperges generally are self reliant (most of us actually become loners). With my syndrome I find that...

    2009 - Is it me or is the quality of food really dropping?

    :burn:I only ask this because lately: - I have bought off chicken (I have gone right off poultry) multiple of times - I have bought off mince - I have been in Safeway about to buy naan bread when I see one packet contains spoilt bread that has mold and all on it - It is extremely rare...

    Accessing the JD at Melbourne. What is required?

    No these are mainly for medical degrees. e.g. a PhD in physics requires an Honours degree in physics whih itself requires good university marks. The Masters of Engineering degree requires an H3 at minimum of university marks. I have been told many times (with the masters of engineering) that...

    Going to Melb Uni

    I'm doing a bachelor of science degree (a new generation degree) and its going very well (but busy with homework). The only thing that annoyed me was that I couldn't do chemistry! Because at the moment I'm considering majoring in chemical systems, mechanical systems, electrical systems or...

    EARTHQUAKE in Melbourne!!

    Yeah 4.7ers occur 6000 times a year! To put this in proportion this was around the same seismic activity as what little boy did to Hiroshima! I must have been a fair distance away from the central point cause the shake was fairly minimal. And yeah I think I may stay away from Japan's more...

    Subject changes

    YAY! You saw the light and threw away a language as a breadth and did a commerce subject:D!!! You have to see your student centre about calc 2 (because the system starts going crazy cause you don't have calc 1 - just one of melbourne's many computer glitches:mad:)!

    What is your current Ring Tone.

    My current ringtone is Layla by Eric Clapton! Best guitar solo (esp at the start - although my phone's sound quality does wreck the song) by one of the best guitar players!

    Biotechnology

    No I'm not doing biotechnology this year! What is biotechnology? Is it bioengineering (i.e. is it like designing medical equiptment)? Sorry I may sound stupid asking this but I would like to know.

    Week-o

    I must say that ESD sounds like an awesome subject! The journal thing should be cool. A lot of those study support sessions were ok. One exception was the 'Getting the most out of your lectures' session, which really didn't allow me to 'get the most out of my lectures'! The session has sort...

    Week-o

    The host group programs themselves were 'BORING'! Our host was more an actuary student than a science student, nobody did engineering and only a few did maths and physics (Is it me or does everybody want to do life sciences?). My host bagged the engineering buildings and praised the law...

    Week-o

    Hey guys, Week-o is tomorrow. :D This is a thread for people to discuss how they found week-o (Whether they have made friends, what clubs they joined (Why?), etc). I can't wait to start week-o (and my degree)!:D

    Bachelor of Science/engineering Thread

    Good work getting to actually 'see' what a civil engineer does (And you get money aswell )! When you go to do your degree you will have a fair bit of knowledge as to what engineers do. Good luck with your work-experience and I really do hope you enjoy it!
