Personally, I think you should go with whatever you think is best for you. The concerns about a uni being "too asian" is a bit of a dead point if you're choosing between USyd/UNSW/UMelb/Monash, because its really up to you if you want to get the "Australian" experience. Lets face it, there are...

Hm, depends on what the grading system is like, and assuming that its the same as NSW unis - but I personally found that first year was harder than second year, in terms of doing well for arts. I'm about a low 80-something for Arts atm, but theres a certain writing style required in Arts that is...

i think internal transfer is only if you want to drop a degree (eg from Comm/Law to just Comm) - usually, most transfers are handled with UAC.

meeeeee too!!! how horrible was contracts? :( i dont think i like law much anymore... ps is it normal for different faculties to get them at different times? they don't give the ones who failed the email later than everyone else? edit: okay, i passed everything.lets just annoy my burst of...

Hm, my history tutor at unsw have published several works too. actually all of my lecturers at unsw arts have had works published; I think its a pre-requisitie for most academics. but usyd definitely has the edge over unsw in terms of arts subjects though - but it really depends on ten million...

Plus don't underestimate the work involved with Arts; the class time doesn't take into account the reading + research time, which is a huge amount, especially if you want to do well. Arts= easy to pass, hard to get beyond a credit. And you can be a capitalist Arts student. Why do you think...

Hm, I personally gained weight during the HSC but its remained static since then, possibly fluctuating by 1-2kg inthe last 2 years. But I've lost a kg recently, although that might be from not eating as much junk at home as I do at uni. So I guess...this time, a loser?

Last year, I liked high school better, but now I'm getting used to the lifestyle there and the different mode of learning, i like uni better. :) Once you get used to the idea of eating lunch alone and possibly going through a whole day without seeing someone you know, it becomes so much easier...

I'm not sure what the people in social inquiry really think about towards their career generally, it seems tobe one of those degrees you can complement with anything people related. However, the people who I know who are doing social inquiry for the actual social inquiry element all seem to be...

I personally found first year more sociology-like last year. Communication & Information Environments is more communication studies; Contemporary Cultures is...unique & more geared towards social texts, Power & Change is probably the most political, but you can still take a sociological...

i say just do a complete half-arsed effort, hand SOMETHING in; and chances are they'll pass you. that way, you wont have the fails on your transcript to be questioned in future interviews with law firms; you can choose whether you want to credit them or not; if you want to stay at uni extra...

I'm not a crammer, but I've been forced to be one in uni purely cos of time work and other commitments. :( But I would have to say even 1.5 hrs per contact hour is bare minimum, even as an arts student. we have so much reading to do!!! :angry:

Re: Legal Authority in Law. haha, if you go to a legal research class at UTS, its basically an austlii propaganda session about how great austlii is and how up to date it is considering that its free etc etc. the tutor was showing us all these examples of these court cases which were updated...

pwnd. ;) ...that's my understanding, anyway.

Picture book or small novel? If you're doing picture book and text/word analysis, I would say the Piggybook by Anthony Browne (I think thats the title, it has piggy in the title though definitely) cos its really good for that kind of thing. Its also a good text for yr5/6 kids too for a better...

Re: Degrees Hm, I would guess that you did the info of law in the BA as a major, but then you would have to do the LLM or secondary law degree for professional qualification? Like the US unis where you do pre-law major and then go to grad law school? this is just a guess though. p.s. Mr...

When I went to the workshops before, the exam strategies were always the same, but the content ones changed slightly as the year went on. They were good, I thought. I also thought that only Yr12s are allowed into the workshop? There were definitely only Yr12s there before. And sharing notes is...

tops - 8-10 bottoms- 8-10 shoe - 7 height: 164cm average all round, i guess, but i have my "omg why aren't i her (point to emaciated international asian commerce student) size" :( days and the skinny leg jeans trend ain't helping! ;)

I remember last year I put complete URLs in my intext referencing for CIE my tutor put "NO" for that. But that was a pass/fail assignment back then,so yeah...I'm not sure how much it would cost you, marks wise. But if you did everything else fine, it will work out well in the end. :) It's about...

Or in the case of second years, don't even pretend you're there for anything else but the freebies. they tend to be quite pleasant to you then, and even some of reps of the firms even deigned to speak to us. :D
