I think it's alright to use R18+ texts so long as you don't use R18+quotes or discuss anything that could be viewed as offensive or distressing.

whoa. that's harsh. fair though. i remember there were guys skipping the whole week before our 4U assessments, then showing up the day before so the "day before" BOS rule couldn't be applied.

it's a very common practice after the HSC trials. When you're not really learning anything, and you're pretty sure that you could be revising more effectively without the teacher, a lot of people just stay at home to work by themselves. That said though, I had a 100% attendance record this...

well you've got another year to get it down pat!

I'm pretty sure those fees are for a full study load in those courses. Ie. 24(= 4 x 6) uoc per semester, 48(= 8 x 6)uoc per year. (most subjects are worth 6uoc) Eg. I'm planning on doing a Science degree and an arts degree. So say in my first year I did 24uoc of science subjects (0.5 of 48) and...

well, I did my HSC in 2008 too so I have no more experience than you in this matter, but I think double degrees are a great idea! I'm planning to do Science/Arts myself. Why? - if you have diverse interests, double degrees make it easier to pursue them. - to employers, having two degrees...

this is a bit late now lol but if I was you I would try to contact either the scholarships office or your school to confirm. I found out yesterday at the open day that my school had "forgotten" to send the nomination letter back, even though my principal had given me her verbal assurance that I...

for keeping fit - swimming for having fun - volleyball for watching - rugby UNION, basketball, soccer

Dr Alan Dearn... aka "The Dearninator"

about what % of people get passes, credit, distinctions, high distinctions... or is this different for every course?

I'm better at maths, though i enjoy both. But HSC English sucked the life out of me...

I just watched this a few weeks ago with a group of friends. Really good movie, amazing cinematography, but i've gotta warn you... IT'S REALLY REALLY REALLY DEPRESSING. Seriously it took me like a week to get over it. It really makes you feel shit about people in general. Anyways, it's not a...

Oh and to the OP - have you considered doing a double degree? BA/BPsych? That way you could combine your intellectual interests without being afraid of compromising your professional ones. And keep your options open. That said though, if you know you're really really passionate about history...

yeah from what i've heard Macquarie is the go for history... one of the teachers from my school is an ex-Macquarie history lecturer and he's great!!

I would agree with this, since demand for building materials, energy inputs and other natural resources tends to be directly correlated with global growth. However, I don't think other branches of engineering will slow down any more than any other type of career. Perhaps there will be fewer...

ah thanks!

Pwnage i think i was standing behind you at the UNSW high achievers thing yesterday. girl in black shirt, jeans and orange backpack. i overheard someone talking about actuarial at Macq vs UNSW, and since there were precious few of us who weren't Med or Law, i figured it must be you :) so...

ps. by dux do you mean highest UAI achieved at the school? at some schools (like mine) it's based on internal assessment results only, which is certainly a much more subjective way of determining it, because it is harder to incorporate the kinds of scaling algorithms used in UAI calculations. If...

me although to be fair my school doesn't offer ESL. we have standard english but i don't think anyone's ever duxed(??) the school with anything except Advanced. In fact I can think of only two years where the dux didn't do EE1, and I was the first for like 4 years who didn't do EE2. but thats...
