If you're in a BPsych, provided that you've met the requirements marks wise to stay in the degree, you are automatically guaranteed an honours spot. Only those in the BSc and BA have to worry about competing against others. Just do the BPsych. If you're academically capable and apply...

Re: USYD Chatter Thread 2016 Loving psychology at the moment. Early days yet, but we may be looking at my next degree. :)

http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/science/units_of_study/table1_neuroscience.shtml The prerequisites for each of the units on that list should give you an idea of what subjects they would have expected you to study beforehand. The choices of units for the neuroscience major are quite diverse, as...

Do law, and if it's too difficult, drop out. Simple.

I'll update as more are added.

PDF updated.

MATH3063 - Nonlinear ODE's and Applications Ease - 7/10 The content isn't too difficult; the quizzes in particular just focused on theoretical concepts and they were quite easy. The three assignments were based around formulating mathematical models of different biological phenomena which were...

Like Rafy mentioned, it is an option, not a definite course of action. But that being said, it isn't the worst idea. Assuming the cutoff for what is considered to be "high income" is reasonable, and that there remains ways through which these students can opt out of the scheme if they can prove...

I've done MATH3061 and personally I found it interesting, but I agree with Carrot that the course is a bit watered down for the topology section. Depends if that's what you are after though. Paunescu (the geometry lecturer) is not that great, but if you go through the tutorial questions you...

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 The language units offered in the Intensive terms are only open to students doing the accelerated stream of a Diploma of Language Studies. It allows students who do not have enough room in their degree program to do what is the equivalent of a language...

I've had a few people contact me about USYD Maths resources, so I'll just say something here for future reference. I only have limited space on my Dropbox, so it is likely that when you click the links provided in this thread, they will no longer be valid. If you want to PM me then I can...

BUSS1001 isn't needed for a Bachelor of Economics; Introductory Micro/Macro, Intermediate Micro/Macro and ECMT1010/1020 are the six compulsory ones.

I think that the whole idea behind the course prerequisite requirement was to keep some sort of consistency about the skill sets that a degree is supposed to impart. I don't think that would be much of an issue for economics; pretty much all universities offer introductory and intermediate...

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 They're trying to, yeah. Seems like a sensible move in my opinion.

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 Mon 10-12, Tue 10-1, Wed 3-5, Thu 10-2, Fri 10-3. Got a lecture or two on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons but I've got work, so I won't be going to those.

I doubt that the OP is still active, so I'll respond to this generally. All of the OP's questions could have been easily answered by reading the USYD Science Handbook. I suggest that everyone does their own basic research before they ask unnecessarily obvious questions. In it, one would see...

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 Cheers Trebla. I'm looking at doing an Arts degree after next year, just weighing up a few options as to whether I'd prefer to transfer to a BSc/BA, or graduate from the BSc and apply separately for the BA. I'm leaning more towards the latter, provided...

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 Hey so I have a question for you combined degree people/those of you in the know. When you graduate, do you get two certificates, or one with both degrees written on it?

Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 INFS1000 is apparently pretty easy provided you're not completely disinterested in the topic. I did it for a week or two a few years ago. I wouldn't consider it a WAM booster; it isn't hard, but it has all of the content and academic rigour you'd...
