    Are there any good Christian Clubs at MQ?

    "ding ding ding" Alliteration, a pun, repetition and onomatopoeia all in one go. Victory is mine... :) ... sorry, couldn't help myself.

    Are there any good Christian Clubs at MQ?

    To tell u the truth, I hadn’t really heard of them either… although I’m not all that active in uni social clubs. I once had a bloke ambush me as I came out of the library, asking for a donation for some random charity. It was then that I envisioned the perfect response: “Sorry, I don’t...

    Do you have to go to the uni to accept your offer??

    Anthony Tsa and Mary Mcguinness… They said that they'd do their best to get it sorted out but I don't think that they plan to make a habit of it. Although, there should be some sort of system in place to cater for students in my position, don't you think?

    UAI Comparison 06 vs 05

    The majority of us have all gone through the same stuff, as well as the bali bombings, the world trade centre attacks, drought, famine, ... excuses won't get you very far in uni... you have to bring your own game to the plate as the lecturer's won't sit the exams for you. I think, therefore...

    New mqers come on down!

    there usually is a/c in all theatres, unless they left them off which is probably the case... just a little bit of hazing for all you newbies. :)

    Do you have to go to the uni to accept your offer??

    Sorry about my previous post... I was wrong... hence I deleted it to avoid confusion. I went in today to accept my offer but am a 3rd yr accounting student. So glad the uni has loop-holes: I was originally told that I had to come in and enrol with the newbies, which ultimately means I...

    Subject Selection

    This is what gets dragged into the uni's when they lower the UAI cut-offs... Asy... that picture... I was literally rolling around on the floor laughing... Hotshot... uni is going to be long, difficult and especially lonely for you if you don't respect the people you're asking help from. I...

    HELP! b comm/ b law

    You could also major in accounting which is very handy depending on where you want to take your law degree when you finish. I guess it depends what you enjoy... I don't think I ever would have considered accounting until I was thrust into it in uni. It actually turned out to be more interesting...

    UAI Comparison 06 vs 05

    First year accounting is fairly dry... If you havn't done any before *like me* then you'll find that you have to do a fair bit of homework, especially for Accounting 1a and 1b. There's also econ (110 = macro, 111 = micro), statistics, applied finance (like 2U maths), etc. I would...

    UAI Comparison 06 vs 05

    When I got in through the 2003 cut-off, it was like 90.8 or something... that's a pretty hefty drop in 2 years.

    I just got an offer from UAC, straight into B Com-Accounting/LLb... Which means... Good luck to anyone who wants it. Now I just have to work out if I'm going to jump through that little loop hole or not. :) :) :)

    Troube choosing subjects for non-award...

    If you know anything about computers, do ISYS123. I did it in 1st yr and it was dead easy. I suppose it's not all that interesting if you don't like computers but it will be very easy to pass. (i.e. half the course is learning how to use microsoft word, excel, the internet... you'll get there...

    Cheers... I've spent a fair bit of time working most of this stuff out. Now I just have to get through the course... Hey Goodtogo, I was wondering if you have done or heard of any law electives that would be worth looking at? Also, any that you would avoid like the plague would be handy. I...

    It's a relatively easy course to get through and they tend to spoon feed you. Although I'm yet to do any law subjects, I think it is just very simple compared to them. If it counts towards your final degree as an elective, then I would recommend it. Otherwise, don't bother. If you make it...

    BUSL is a joke but it provides a reasonable foundation if I am going to enter 2nd yr law subjects. If it were equivalent to the LAw2xx subjects, then I would get a waiver. As it isn't, I would argue that I am already familiar with many of the concepts that will underpin the law2xx subjects. I...

    * Food prices may go up... to provide SAM with needed funds. * They could put a levy on textbook sales? * Sub clubs, such as social and sporting groups will lose funding so more will be demanded from direct members. * I think they said that if you don't pay your fees, then you can't use the...

    Although it's good for the hip pocket, the sources of the funds, such as the sports associations, may fall apart. The legislation was only passed because some d$@kh*#d uni student unions *cough... Sydney... MQU... etc* decided to fund protests against the government for better funding a few...

    I've done BUSL250 (which is the easy version of law for accounting students) which covers contracts, torts, property and Trade Practices Law. I realise that it isn't the same as doing the law2XX subjects but it gives me a leg up in knowing most of the basics already. Also, the law1xx subjects...

    I completely agree which is why I plan to get D's or higher... although it is more pressure that may not be necessary. I've read the handbook many times *lol... tedious read*. Don't believe everything the handbook tells you... I spoke to Maggie and she reassures me that If I want to I can...
