Today I got: Bachelor of Arts - Monash University (Caulfield Campus) I don't think I'll be taking it.

Like most people here, I don't think you should repeat year 12. The things is, the ATAR isn't about intelligence or capability. There are plenty of intelligent people who never go to university, and there are plenty of pretty stupid people who go there. Getting a very good ATAR is about...

I think every uni has a medieval reinactment club. There are also those role playing ones where you play games where you have super powers and have to whisper to other players so the others don't find out what your powers are. My friend went to one once. I always wondered what the Classics...

You can sign up whenever - they want your money. Honestly though, 90% of the clubs you sign up for you'll never go to. Some of them are just weird.

They're that too. Especially in Arts.

Re: cant wait till wednesday I keep checking just in case they decide to release it early...which is pretty stupid. I pretty much know I won't get what I want and I don't really care, its just the waiting stresses me out.

My dad must have volume on multiples of five. He paces around (something that I have unfortunately picked up - although not to his extent) and pretends to be bowling cricket balls. He is also incapable with electronic things, and has tried to call people with remotes, use his house key in atms...

Actually, last semester I attended university in New Zealand. Anyway, the Philosophy lecturer had been teaching for about 40 years I think he said, and he'd been head of the department and such. He was really old, sweet and random, and would make the strangest philosophy jokes - he was...

The most important part of O-Week is collecting free stuff, and spending your money on stupid clubs. Also, if you like sausages there should be free ones of them too. When I went to CIT (Canberra's TAFE) every Thursday was free cup noodle night. That was kind of cool, but now that I...

While most offers are made in the main round there are still some made in the late/final rounds. To me, $200 isn't that much in the grand scheme of things, and if your relative doesn't apply they may wish they had for the next six months. I think its something like 8000 offers are made in...

Yeah I'd kind of like to travel, but I can't stand stand the thought of doing anymore work in hospitality, or menial office stuff, which is what I'd have to do either while travelling, or prior to so I could afford it. I've always wanted to live in Spain. I think I have enough money for a...

I don't know what the NSW HSC is like but in university its not about rote learning things. Its about learning things, understanding them and then critically evaluating them or applying concepts to new things. Also some essays may be on comparisons about two separate ideas, or something. Rarely...

I know there are a few threads of offers, but I couldn't find one that answers my questions. How are offers decided/sorted/made etc? Is it like some kind of computer program that has a certain amount of spots in it, or something, and then it sorts it all out? Just fills spots? I was...

You are going to be put in the same lectures regardless...so the only thing you have to worry about it tutorials (or pracs, or labs or whatever your unit has like that). I did first year Arts at ANU and the way that we chose our tutes were different for each subject. For Sociology and Phil I...

Its kind of sweet that the OP asked if parents should come :)

I don't think time is what I need...I need, i don't know, a reliable and accurate fortune teller.

I personally have problems with the 4 subject. The idea is good and sound, and I do like them for some things but I think there are problems. Many lectures seem to offer a slide print out - one of these for each lecture will quickly make your 4 subject document areas too thick. There aren't...

Generally enrollment happens the week prior to O-Week, it is, after all, orientation week, not enrollment week! Also, its not like high school. You are not sent your special timetable or anything. Generally you go online, go to the timetables section, type in your unit code and a timetable...

As a lot of people have said deferment happens before enrollment and for one year. What you could do is defer for a year, come back, study for six months, and then take a leave of absence for another year. I am under the impression that bonus points only apply straight out of year 12. Two...

You get one offer per round per "organisation/uni/application" you apply to. You get the offer in your highest preference you qualify for. If you apply through VTAC, QTAC and UAC you will get one from each. You may get subsequent offers in your later rounds if you qualify for anything higher...
