For most years. But then you have a LOT of readings to do, so you can expect to spend 5-20 hours doing readings for your subjects.

Depends on degree etc. For arts students, 12 hours a week is pretty standard, so depending on when their classes are offered, they can end up with a 2/3 day week. For science students, if you're doing labs, you can have anywhere between 20-35 hours a week, which would generally be 4/5 days...

Wow, ok, you're going to have to change that attitude and get your priorities sorted out. Classes are held at set times and there's *some* room for manipulating the best timetable for yourself, but if you go to one of the timetabling people and say you want a sleep in and you have to travel a...

but I have all those things AND cake/carbs/sugar/soft drink eheheheh

how great are carbs you guys SO GREAT ALL CARBS ALL THE TIME

I used to just use a country road bag because they're hug and fit everything and are fairly comfy, but after a while I started getting a sore back from carrying everything on one shoulder. Now I use a plain Adidas backpack that's super comfy and has a pocket for my laptop inside. Super practical...

Then I refer you to my line 'Better than yours.' Though mostly if people asked, I just said I was happy with it.

Oi Barbara - it's your bday in 9 days and while I'm assuming you have plans with non internet people, I think you absolutely must make some plans with internet people like yours truly and riproot to do tequila shots and dance sometime around the 14th y/y

You're saying that you want your children to do well academically, but it might be worth considering the environment of a private school. They have much better facilities than public schools and sports programs that far exceed those offered by public schools. To be honest, the type of student...

They also have tracksuit thursdays and tracksuit tuesdays and tracksuit mondays and wednesdays and fridays too basically it's pretty casual and a lot of the people are more of the sporty type because the degrees offered tend to attract more people who are super chilled.

THIS SONG. I quite seriously think this song is pretty much the closest thing to the perfect song I've heard.

Not as good as the main campus, but it has its own fairly relaxed vibe. Cool things are that it's a smaller community so easy to get to know people, and everyone has their breaks at the same time so you can all hang out together and don't have to worry about trying to work out when everyone's...

Wouldn't work. eg a whole portion of society might be like 'Oh hey, I'm an adult with no children, let's not put any money into education!' which would then end up detrimental for the next generation. The government is responsible for the WHOLE of Australia and have to act in such a way as to...

As I've said, with science/engineering, you have zero chance of getting a 3 day week. This is primarily because you'll have approx 20-25 hours of class per week which would be absolute HELL if you had it all crammed into 3 days and you'd likely have a lot of clashes and things like that. I...

1. USyd has a great reputation, and decent facilities for undergrads. You also get lovely sandstone and the whole 'prestige' thing. I'd say the quality of learning and academic outcomes are the same as those at UNSW. Other things like social life/clubs and societies/etc are much more developed...

Re: What absurd things have people done in your school due to competition and rivalry Same thing happened with me. Everyone worked individually for trials to get their ranks sorted, but when it came to HSC, it was a whole combined effort. Heaps of people in our grade shared notes on a forum we...

Re: What absurd things have people done in your school due to competition and rivalry How did not a single person think to confirm with the teacher? You're all 17/18 years old and seem to be lacking in maturity. I think what she did was undeniably bitchy, but you all let yourselves be taken...

Bond University, the only place you can graduate with a licence to kill oh my gosh why am I so funny tonight

Making Mirrors came out last year

You do have to write an essay or report each semester, but the main focus is generally on the final exam. If you can rote learn well, you should be fine for that. The essays and reports require more analysis and interpretation, but they should teach you how to do that. A lot of people find...
