Macquarie Uni too far (1 Viewer)

[dizzlemizzle]

If i were to study at Macq it would take me approx 2 hours to get there everyday; would it be unrealistic of me to think I could still cope socially/academically?

try and get accomodation closer to campus or go to another uni

4 hours of travel per day is pretty tough

sleep/study whilst commuting.

By far the most solid advice I've ever seen on this site.

I have a friend who travels 2 and a half hours to get to Macq uni. I think you can cope.

 

[funstudy]

not worth it, that's like 4 hrs of study you're wasting away- especially near finals you'll regret it. You might think you'd study on the train but it doesn't really work

Can't you take a train to Macquarie Uni? I heard they have a on-campus train station.

I live near warragamba dam and have macquarie and sydney as my top 5 preferences -.- I'm in big trouble haha

I forgot to mention that by car it would only be around 40 minutes, would it be wise to drive to uni given toll costs and parking spots?

I dunno, 4 hours of travel a day would wear you down... it takes me about an hour and half to get to MQ by bus/train and i find that fairly exhausting as it is.

40 mins by car is ok i suppose, but keep in mind that parking permits are pretty expensive and car spaces are limited.

What time in the morning do you think the carpark usually starts to get really full?

10am, often earlier

Out of curiosity may-cat, do you know when they spots typically tend to free up again? I've heard it's around 12pm but I have no idea.

 

[-may-cat-]

No idea, i don't actually drive to uni, just have plenty of friends who do. =p

And as if you wouldn't know Azure, you've been at MQ longer than me?

EDIT: No wait, no you haven't, i always forget that you're younger than me =/
