    Transfering Courses

    With the law entry aka 'Macquarie Privledge', when shoud applications be made -after finals for semester 2? Just out of interest, would psyc-law also ask why you want to study law and how competitive is it? It says in handbook a 'UAI and Credit average' would be competitive yet I was told...

    True Love

    I think the only way to know if 'true love' exists is if you have felt it. And you will know if you have.

    Too much focus on HSC marks?

    Just an interesting idea Studies in organisational psyc have found that doctors hold quite a low level of EQ (Emotional Intelligence). This suggests that they are not overly empathetic, or able to 'put themselves into their patients shoes'. Obviously this isn;t the case at all times, and there...

    My Dilemma/Interview with the Principal.

    I agree with the idea that uni is harder than school. way harder. U can do relatively little and get 90+. At uni im working way harder and just getting credits (65-74). There was an interesting article that suggested ur 1st year uni marks drop by 20% to ur school marks. My avg HSC mark - 86%...

    Darn thieves at it again

    Whilst im a Macquarie student, and I am biased in thinking or maybe hoping everyone is decent enough to leave others stuff alone, this sucks! I guess there is also the fact that any body can stroll into the library, Macquarie student, non-Macquarie student or jail-breaker.

    New gpa style

    WE didn't make this up, it was mentioned in the lecture, but it has been misinterpreted - I think it is very much like the WAM thing adopted by the likes of UNSW and maybe (not 100% sure) the traditional GPA will still be used as well. It might just be a leveller between us and other unis when...

    How bad is a pass average?

    Hey there Just a questions regarding GPA. I know the GPA calculator thing, and say you get 4 passes your GPA is 2.0 and 4 credits would be 3.0 - say uve just done semester one of year one. However, a lecturer for BBA 111 mentioned the introduction of a new system, basically, the one UNSW uses...

    Is this really fair, especially around exam time?

    There was no sign where I went, not visably. The guy had every right to ask me to leave, yet, due to my quite obvious newbie status he coulda been friendlier. This discussion could go on forever lol. But maybe we should study.

    Is this really fair, especially around exam time?

    I don't really know where I want to end up Claire. I'm thinking I might like to be a psychologist instead of a business tycoon lol. Who knows. To however made the comment on self-worth/genius, the statement I made was a bit extreme - prolly a by-product of stress. However, the comment that...

    Is this really fair, especially around exam time?

    Yeah everyone, I'm not really that pissed off about it. But ill urinate on some people's stuff in the library just for fun anyways. I resent the call by someone that I am another stupid first year. Definitely not. For example,if u read some of the bulletin/chat rooms on WEBCT for first year...

    Is this really fair, especially around exam time?

    This is kind of linked to the threads that talk about people hogging library tables - which is a joke. I went to the library at 10am on friday and it was packed. So where do you go from there? Along with a friend, we went to the computer labs. Im not a computing/IT/maths student so I don't know...

    Can the average still succeed?

    Yes, of course you can. You can always improve. In Mathematics (which didn't count for me and I knew it wouldn't) I was getting between 20 and 50% at school on average, with the trial mark at 55% - placing me close to the bottom of my grade - probably about 10th bottom. However, overall, I ended...

    HSC art artists...who are the best?

    Duchamp is very important to know. last year, in section one of the paper, it was about duchamp for 8 or 12 marks (i forget). They assume that you havent seen the artists before, and that u can achieve full marks without prior knowledge. However, i am sure that what i added from my own brain...
