Yessh I agree, I saw heaps of science today though. I too was looking for making friends with Business students since I haven't done it in high school as much so I'll need as much help as I need (Doing Bus and Med Science).

Oh BTW I was guy in the red shirt on top of the hoody with the black globe cap in skinnies LOLOL.

A significant number of ppl left tho after the welcoming....

There are too many business students... many of them come to lectures in suits. On that note, avoid coming to a lecture in a suit, unless you need to wear one for your job. Not as cool as people believe.

We have a majority internationally-born student body. Something like... 52% were not born in Australia (at least that's how it was in 2007). The old thing, I guess, depends. Unless you are exceptionally young, the people you meet in business will be about your age (although SOME, but not MOST, will look significantly older, mainly because they are). You may even get the opportunity to be in a group with a mature-age student for an assignment. Fun fun, my friend.

some of us don't have a choice but to attend uni ridiculously overdressed.

I guess there are three cases here. The first is that you're a very well dressed homeless man, who only owns a (very clean) suit. The second is that you come directly from or are going to work after class. The third is that for whatever reason, be it dare, punishment or challenge, you're forced to wear a suit lest you face some form of (further) punishment.. Any of these situations are acceptable.

Wow, it is that high.

Some mature-age students are really good in group work. I would certainly pick a mature-age student over an international student for a group assignment.
