Yeah, iirc when you log into uac, they provide you with the direct link to accept your offer.

Re: Semester 1 UNSW Chatter Thread 2013 If you're a new a student it's recommended to go to the library, where people will be set up to give you one there, until early march I believe.

I did higher chemistry and had friends do regular, from what I recall of first semester, there wasn't that much difference between the two. In Chem1011 you spend time at the beginning going over some basic stuff that I think is omitted altogether from higher (stuff you would have done in high...

Re: Want to know if you made it into your preferred UNSW course before official offer This. I didn't realise I would be enrolling straight after accepting, and if you aren't prepared it can be extremely confusing.

You're welcome :D yeah if you're not that keen and it's not required then go for regular. It won't disadvantage you in any way and it'll probably be a lighter workload too haha.

Haha not at all, these were all things I didn't know either last year. I did higher chemistry last year, and from that, the content difficulty isn't that much more in my opinion. You learn pretty much 95% the same things as the people in regular chemistry with just a couple of topics added on...

After looking at those, yeah I would say for semester 1 enrol in Higher Chemistry (in case you decide to major in chemistry, the higher course is required), regular or higher physics (depending on your strength/interest), regular or higher mathematics and SCIF1121 (I think it would be better...

Just out of curiosity, what were the majors you were considering? I kinda had a major in mind when I first enrolled, mainly so that I had a course plan to follow, but I wasn't 100% committed to it, but the subjects I took ended up satisfying the stage 1 courses for all the other majors I was...

Even though it isn't essential to know your major until the end of the year when you declare it, it is advantageous to have an idea of what you possibly want to do. In the case of your example, if you decided at the end of the year that you wanted to major in Earth Science but you hadn't done...

Depends on the lab. Biology labs pretty much always finish early since they're 3 hours, but depending on how fast you work, you may be pressed for time to finish early in chemistry. But regardless, they usually try to get everyone out of the lab by 5 past, whether you've finished the work or...

Doing any HSC science will give you an advantage because you will already have a really good understanding of aim, hypothesis, method, results and discussion. In semester 1, you complete an entire section on scientific method which is assessable in both the mid-semester and final exams...

I don't really know much about history and linguistics, but I did first year psychology. The content is definitely interesting yet very easy to understand. However, at UNSW they treat it as a science, so you will be learning about scientific method and statistics as well. Also, even though the...

Yeah there was an email sent out ages ago for YS applications. But since you're in the science faculty you might be able to become a science peer mentor. They sent out an email already and applications close like February or something.

This is pretty much me too. I only bothered to do work right at the beginning and end of year 12, now I'll never know what I could have achieved.

Haha thanks, I am indeed doing neuro.

Yeah I think a lot of stores may go on the ground floor of the new student accommodation near UNSW Village. But so happy that Boost and Subway are gonna be on campus.

On Anzac Parade there is plenty of cafes (Gloria Genes, 85 degrees, and various Asian ones), a few asian supermarkets and an IGA (grocery store), a laundromat near the funeral home, a newsagent (also near the funeral home), a couple of pubs, heaps and heaps of Asian restaurants, as well as fast...

Finally just got mine. So glad there were no fails and wam increased.

Don't worry, I still haven't got mine either, iirc mine got released late last semester too.

Pretty much yes, but there are a few classes such as SCIF1121 (lol) and the SCIF Research Internships that are only available to Adv Science students. So even though you wouldn't have the Advanced title, I guess you would still have that research experience, that wouldn't have been available to...
