You only need an 80 average to keep your average for PhB. National Undergraduate Scholarship holders only need a 70 average. And it's quite possible to get straight HDs and keep sane - my lowest mark has been 84 over four semesters but I still have a pretty busy social life. No idea how many...

I'm not sure. I don't know of any Music students at ANU who didn't get a year 12 certificate of some description. But that doesn't mean that you need one. Perhaps you should email the people at the Music department at ANUasking this question.

I can't see why they wouldn't let you do psych on exchange. You don't have to go to an english speaking country - in Copenhagen they teach classes in english even though the local language is danish. It depends very much on the uni, ones in France for example will nearly always be in french. And...

I'm heading off to Copenhagen in second semester next year for six months. You have to apply essentially a year beforehand, so you can't go on exchange until your second year at the very earliest. You're limited in some respects to what unis you can go on exchange to, especially for law -...

lolz. From what friends who live there have told me, UniLodge fails at social.

I'd say Bruce was more of a party college than B&G, in my experience... Tbh every college apart from Ursies (and Fenner, lol) gets enough partying done.

No idea. I didn't even no such a degree existed, I thought Euro was just a major... I'd recommend emailing people at ANU about it.

but then again, applied maths = fail.

People do prep for them?!

Terry Tao :) Actually I'd say that Riemann was a bit of a gun.

lolz. If I were you.

My eight maths subjects I'm doing this year say that you're wrong :p and I don't think Wollongong is that great for maths: last time I checked they didn't actually offer any analysis courses. For applied stuff I'd imagine it wouldn't be too bad though.

Maybe for applied maths (i.e. just doing lots of integration or differentiation questions, or things like that), but for more advanced pure maths where all your assessment comes from proving things in assignments and exams, you can't really study that way. Easiest way for me is to just read the...

You get as much of a "research" atmosphere in PhB as you want, really. I have a friend doing 2nd yr PhB physics who did an advanced studies course at RSPhys at ANU and came up with original experimental results that'll be published for a conference in Adelaide at the end of the year. I'm...

psssh, i'm sure most people would say that about maths too, but i've had no trouble with 3rd year maths courses...

They have university extension subjects available to be done in yr12 for people like that. And as to the earlier comment about it not being made public knowledge about how to make the IMO team - well, I'm pretty sure that if a government school had an absolute genius at maths, then they'd...

There would be no point in going out of your way to complete 42 units towards a maths "major", because it wouldn't be a major... You have to major in something from your degree (or at least close enough). Why don't you just do a double degree instead?

are you serious? i usually have my music on pretty loud with my door open until 2 in the morning or so...

Best thing to do would be to email ANU about it. Make sure you specify clearly that you're an Australian student. I'd imagine that an ABB would be about equivalent to a 95, but I'm not sure. Otherwise you could try to find a converter from A-levels to IB grades, because it says there that they...

lolz. i think every college takes into account sporting prowess when they choose students, not just johns. i certainly put down all my sporting stuff on my form when applying for bruce.
