Haha, I just put it in academic because it was a school organised activity and involves some academic activities (eg report writing, and both my skill and volunteering activities were 'academic' based). If you want to include it I don't think it was detriment you in any way : )

Do 12 if you're unsure about 2 subjects (eg if you aren't sure if you're going to do better in eco or physics then keep both). However, if you know you're significantly worse at a certain subject then just drop it and do 10.

PM me :)

The difference in USYD vs UNSW O week is massive, the 'yellowshirts' that volunteer for UNSW O week undergo months of intense preparation and because of this, become really good friends. They event rent out airbnbs to live near campus during the OWeek period, have many social nights and spend a...

Honestly they're both equal in terms of teaching quality. However, the general rep for UNSW is a lot better (not sure why, this is just generally among students they will choose UNSW over USYD for those courses unless they get a scholarship for USYD). I would argue UNSW has better social life...
