Quit standing around and study hard!! Get into medicine. Easiest way out. There always a well paid job waiting for you on the other side. Who wants to be a crap paid scientist in a lab 24/7 under a boss who probably did medicine and has an awesome title like Professor or Doctor?

According to my notes from the age of 14 children have the right to seek and obtain medical advise and treatment without the consent or knowledge of their parentes. This is covered under the Minors (Property and Contracts) Act 1970 (NSW). I'm pretty sure this is accurate, but you may want to...

Telling people your current marks and ranks really isn't going to help you much for two reasons, first every school marks differently and it's very hard if not impossible to predict your UAI based on school marks (although if you go to a small school you'l definitely wanting to be scoring high...

SAM's only really useful the day before you get your UAI, once your actual HSC marks have been released. Human predictions are even worse... The simple fact is that every school marks subjects differently (some may be more lenient than others) and that your assessment marks are going to be...

^ lol wtf...

I emailed UNSW and they said that there is no way that it will affect your other offers so long as you don't accept an offer through it. Except then I tried to sign up and it wouldn't let me (said my UAC number wasn't recognised). Anyone else had any luck? If only USyd still did their...

Not sure if this is an urban legend or not. I got told by a friend in uni that you can check to see if you've got an offer before the UAC releases them by logging onto the applicant servies site for each uni, for example UNSW would go here. (1) Would this work? (2) If I was to test it then...

Sort of, but not quite. Frontline is (correct me if I'm wrong) part of representation and text, therefore you need to talk about how the composer represents the concept of truth to us. So while techniques are important, you also need to consider a number of things: - Text form, why did the...

Not much, it's a question of quality over quantity. If you've been paying attention in class over the last 5 years then a lot of the HSC work will be familiar to you, either in skills (research/analysis in history, maths ability in maths) or in content (a lot of HSC science is yr 7-10 stuff). If...

Bear with me here Does this mean that marks are scaled and D's/HD's are awarded on the basis of a students rank and not their ability? [/SIZE]

Some are going up, some are staying the same, and others are going down. Degrees which lead to jobs in more demand, engineering in particular, are going to attract more applicants because they have higher starting salaries and the like, and hence the UAI's for these courses are going to go up...

Thanks for the feedback, I'm very likely going to be studying law at Sydney Uni, will this affect my ability to get a high average (in other words will the success of other students inhibit my ability to score highly, is there sort of a ranking system, and in this case would a 75% at Sydney be...

I'm a complete newbie here, but am going to be studying law next year, is it possible to maintain a high distinction average without killing myself in the process? How about a distinction average, and what is the average GPA for a hard working law student?

From what I can gather our grade wasn't smarter, it was just that the scaling for the HSC marks was such that there were more band 6's than previous years, and this was because people were complaining that there weren't enough band 6's. The end result is that there are less 88's/89's and more...

Yeah but that's only to get an interview, and only a third of people who do interviews get in, and I really didn't do that well at all at the interview...

Just trying to decide if I should structure my preferences to give me a chance at graduate entry or whatever. Anyway, for UNSW: UAI - 99.75 UMAT - 186 Interview - average to below average Do I have a short at getting first/second round preferences, and if not what are my alternatives?

Sydney's closer, but I've been finishing homework on public transport for the last six years, so I can probably handle the longer rides. Prestige and facilities are only a minor determining factor at the moment, I'm really looking at teaching style and ability of each faculty and which will...

Ok I got my UAI today and I did way better then I expected, pretty much enough to give me first round entry into either USyd or UNSW law, depending on which one I chose, but therein lies the problem, I really can't decide. USyd seems to take the more more elite students as they've almost always...

90+ I hope ... Pretty damn easy exam.
