I have a platinum american express credit card with probably more credit then I have cash :P I've never used it, the thing scares me actually. Its hidden away in my cupboard somewhere...

Did you ever wonder where the saying "those who can't do, teach" came from? Well now you know. Ask your physics PROFESSOR how much he studied in his last year for comparison, physics professors are real scientists, who actually DO physics... All I am going to say here is that I hope you're...

High Intelligence would correlate with high ATAR but it would only be a moderate correlation at best.

even so, its not that hard anyway to do a linear substitution, all you do is substitute u = (whatever is within the function that isn't linear), and then rewrite the linear part so that it is with respect to u.

2009 has actually been my best year so far, by a fairly comfortable margin. I'm doing subjects that I really enjoy, meeting heaps of new intelligent people, learning heaps and all that... I guess I'm just a natural born uni student. Its strange that different people respond differently to...

Senior executive at ANZ Basically he just tells people what to do. I know boring huh, at least he doesn't try to tell us about his day very often.

Just bring breakfast to school and eat it when you get hungry. I'm usually not very hungry when I wake up, but I get hungry a few hours later if I don't eat much, so I just start to eat some of my lunch at uni when I start getting hungry :P Then I eat the rest of it when I get hungry again...

Thats not quite true, even if there is no rational reason for god to exist that we can come up with, he still may exist. A lack of evidence doesn't prove that something doesn't exist. Of course it may be wise to not believe that he exists, or at least be fairly confident that he doesn't exist...

Also many would actually be asians from Australia, not international students. I know about 10 people doing commerce at Melbourne from highschool, and about 8 of them are asian.

I kind of feel this way too, Its not that I don't have friends, I have plenty of great friends, its just I don't really have anyone I feel I can tell anything to. My friends don't shut me out or anything like that though, I'm just not close enough with anyone to "spill my soul". This does feel...

I haven't really thought about this before, but Ok here goes for a serious answer: I'll try my best for 2 am First a question: is it your first cousin? If you think it doesn't matter: a cousin is family and this is wrong, and it doesn't matter how distantly related they are, consider this: 1...

yeah all the engineering students bitch about matlab all the time. I'll probably be bitching about it in a few months when I take linear algebra in the summer. There must be some reason why it's so popular with so many maths and engineering departments though... Also its interesting that you...

I'd be pretty surprised if anyone who has already finished can add to their ENTER. If you could, anyone who has gone through first year university maths could just go and ace the 4 unit, or specialist maths exam. Not that there would be any need for it really.

University rankings vary significantly, I've seen the same uni ranked around 20th and 90th in the world in the same year. I guess it really depends on how they choose to rank them. The Times Higher Education seems to be rather favourable to Australian universities compared to some others I've...

23rd of November for me.

I think the op meant know as in know how to use... to a certain level of proficiency.

Not so much in Australia, because our culture unfortunately views education as just a means to get a job, but elsewhere: yes, with more intelligent individuals. That is not to say many Australian students do courses purely for the pursuit of knowledge, its just not overly common. Also, about...
