    Law?????

    UNSW's is pretty much as good, and they scored a higher graduate starting salary than USYD in 08. i'm saying this because there are easier pathways in the form of a newly-introduced 'internal transfer' program. basically if you get 97+ you only need a WAM of 70 to get into law which isn't very...

    Which uni will you be going and what course?

    i'd go unsw, because its courses are more flexible and structured. and to above, B. Int'l and Global Studies IS a new course. combining two previous courses hasn't been done before and there would be kinks to iron out so i'd definitely take UNSW's int'l studies program.

    Medentry group discount!

    they don't enforce the group thing too strictly. when i signed up i put in the bare minimum number of people required to make a group and after i payed (group rate) and everything i found out one of the friends i signed up with didn't actually sign up at all.

    MedEntry or Face2Face

    to me it wasn't very useful. the content of the lecture was pretty much covered by the online notes already. the trial test was handy, but you have 10 online already so ti's a bit of a time waster.

    Going well in UMAT without prep courses

    spots are going to be filled up whatever criterias are used. there are ~500 spots in medical programs in NSW alone, and 99.90+ there are only 100 in the whole of NSW. plus there's the interviews, and for programs like UNCLE interview alone determines your entrance (after offers are given out...

    MedEntry or Face2Face

    yeah it's really not very hard to get past the script which stops u from copy/pasting :)

    Why are sciences and mathematics scaled so well?

    its good to give 100% in whatever you do. if everyone was like that the world would be a much nicer place. but the original focus of the argument is that people are endowed with differing types and degrees of talent, and the degree of effort that one needs to input to reach their respective...

    Chemistry Bridging Course?

    well at least my decision is a little easier. i've never done chem and i'm definitely doing a bridging course if i get my course. $300 isn't too bad i suppose.. and it gets you primed for uni learning so i don't see why not.

    Why are sciences and mathematics scaled so well?

    yes of course but in life things are seldomly fair. if you work hard you'll achieve something. but the degree of effort and reward differs from person to person and effort does not always equal success. and i think i disagree with the 'anyone can excel if they work hard'

    UMAT test 2009

    apart from the choosing an area of work-shortage there's also a time limit on when you have to be qualified by, so no extended gap years PG/careers changes/failing subjects if you are on bonded

    If you don't get your desired UAI

    dentistry is like medicine without stress. stress = bad stress, obviously. but then stress also = interesting/fulfilling

    Question about selecting B Laws (Combined degrees)

    see UNSW/USYD's combined programs are much friendlier as opposed to ANU's multitude of double degrees (each with a diff. number)..especially if you feel the need to make a last-minute career change

    MedEntry or Face2Face

    i thought i did too.. doing trial tests online was a bummer. still it's not all bad. i like how you get percentile rankings for each test, and you can do each one (the drills) over and over without having to go at it with an eraser in hand all day :mad1:

    MedEntry or Face2Face

    F2F you could probably buy 2nd hand materials at a lower cost. I've only done MedEntry and I'm quite satisfied with the material you give you. Online has its advantages - you could get your answers corrected and the peer ranking thing is quite handy too. I have a friend who did both F2F and...
