    girls would you sleep with fat guys?

    Depends on the level of fat. I think of myself as normal sized, and a bit overweight I would, but not an obese person. I know lots of really sweet people who are a bit chubby and I wouldn't mind doing stuff with them if I was that kind of person.

    How does UAC find out my UAI

    The UAC number just refers to your application not to your UAI. You should have been given a BSSS number when you started primary school (if you did any schooling in NSW you should have one - although it may have been called something else until high school) and it may or may not have been your...

    DipEd?

    I looked into a DipEd earlier and also came across the major problems. You need to be qualified in whatever you are teaching so you need to have a major in it as well as often some courses which are not mandatory to the major but are mandatory for the DipEd. For example in an English major I...

    How does UAC find out my UAI

    I believe there is a state register for UAIs and their equivalents. All the university admissions places have access to these registers. Remember the UAI is not calculated by your school but by the BSSS and their equivalents. The information will also be linked to your name and your BSSS...

    Where do you reckon is the best suburb to live in Sydney?

    Glebe! Nice houses, nice shops, nice people. Walking distance to the city, close to Broadway, walking distance to central. Easy walk to Newtown which has good food.

    Centrelink - Rent Assistance

    Yes, but only for the "rent" part of it. As most colleges include food and power, a basic flat accommodation fee would have to be determined, but it would be above the maximum rate amount thingy, so it wouldn't matter. When you move in ANU should probably be able to help you with it - there...

    Confused about high school -> University

    Most high schools will hold an information session about university applications, and in my experience most also have on offer free UAC (if you are in NSW) guides which have basic course details, entrance requirements and application procedures. Also, in about August-ish graduating students are...

    Anyone else planning on UNE 2010?

    I thought UNE said they had about 5000 internal students.

    Best TV series EVER

    I would say: Battlestar Galactica Six Feet Under And somewhere near the top of the list I would put: Doctor Who Torchwood Skins (At least the first gen) Could have been good show: Firefly Then I would have the list of fun shows to watch - but not "best" but sort more...

    No pets except goldfish?

    They're probably quite strict. I'd say anything in an aquarium (not a terrarium). So turtles and yabbies would probably be out. Because if you say yes to those you'd have to say yes to like spiders and snakes. I don't know.

    good university guide?

    I like how the Good Universities Guide has all the different sections. It has the graduate satisfaction and graduate employment ratings which are probably pretty reliable, as they would be more objective surveyed figures. The Guide is different to other rankings as, to me, it shows the more...

    Courses per semester

    I don't know about your particular course but a full time course load is generally 4 subjects/units a semester regardless of your degree. If they are first year core courses you will probably be expected to complete them in your first year. Generally when you go through enrollment you will have...

    Winter Blankets in Halls?

    Halls should be heated, but I think its always good to bring a spare doona, and its nicer to use your own. Bring your own as well.

    UTS or UNSW?

    I've never attended either but I have been to both campuses, and know people who have been there. I think they are very different, UTS is much more of a specialised university, where as UNSW is a more traditional all-round university. UTS doesn't have a traditional campus either, its more...

    Internal vs. external study

    I'm wondering if I could have some opinions. I am entering my second year of a BA and am tossing up whether doing internal or external (correspondence) study through UNE. I am currently living in a semi-remote town in the Northern Territory, so to attend university would require me to move...

    Tutorials

    Tutorials are often part of your semester grade for the first year, sometimes up to 10%. They are not something you can miss, and often a certain amount of them are compulsory. With Chemistry you may also have practicals. Think about it. You are forking out 5 grand a year for this, don't be...

    What I think is very stupid

    If you need a years worth of study to transfer (standard) and might have 6Ds, one HD and an F (as per your (hypothetical) situation your GPA will still be 5.3. This is much higher than a GPA of a pass.

    Anyone else planning on UNE 2010?

    I'm sure you could "pretend" to have independant living...:P My specialities as far as cooking is concerned are "toast" and "cereal" but I am remarkably good at both. I've been living independently for 2 1/2 years. Go me.

    I planning to live at Wright, with the shared apartments. Cheap and self catered :)
