Totally ok with this. Thanks.

Hi. I have a question about just exams in general. Do we have to pass the final exam to pass the unit? Or can we fail by a bit if the rest of our assessments can keep us above 50% overall? I just need to know what is and what isn't, because I'm a little worried about the heavy weighting of...

Quick question: How much does an Access Card cost for a whole year?

Re: USYD Roll Call 2012 I'm home :)

Here's mine. Some aren't final yet, but most are going ahead. Semester 1: - CHEM1101 - MATH1011 - MATH1015 - PHYS1001 - PHYS1500 Semester 2: - CHEM1102 - MATH1013 - MATH1014 - PHYS1003 - PSYC1001 PSYC1001 I'm not sure about, since I can't find any others in my options that look...

Bachelor of Science, reporting in. :) I'm pretty stoked to be going to Sydney Uni, but it's been an absolute headache trying to get REASONABLY priced accommodation. Mum's keen to shove me into this $350/wk apartment which is infinitely closer to UTS, and I just don't want to pay that much...

B Science at Sydney Uni. Totally didn't expect it at all. Didn't even know I still had it on my UAC preferences; thought I'd replaced it with Biomed@UTS, but apparently not. Cut-off was 82.10 this year, my ATAR was 80.35. Finally, living in a regional area pays off :D Any other Sydney Uni-goers?

I know the guy who topped general maths. Good ol' nicky :D Makes me wish i did general maths now, i could've given him a run for his money in it.

roryclifford knows what he's on about. And frankly, HSC is not the be-all-and-end-all of everything. These days you can do transfers into just about anything, so the road to your dreams isn't cut off entirely. Just...slightly detoured (Or maybe more than slightly, for some). But that all...

You gotta be kidding. Same as me :D And now i'm feeling incredibly inadequate now, compared to all you 95+'ers. Thanks a lot :(

80.35 here. Needed an 88 for medical science. The amount of bombing out was probably caused by a lack of motivation and general apathy for school. I'd been there for 13 years, i just wanted to get the hell out of there. Grabbing me some bonus points and I'll be doing biomedical science at UTS...

Oh no, 89s everywhere. How will you survive? Seriously, grow up. An 89 is 1 different to a 90, and a shiny little award for getting straight 90-somethings is cool and all, but really it's a trivial little thing, and will most likely have no real influence on your life. If you feel inferior...

Well, crap! 20 shots coming my way eventually. This can only go well :)

You've got to be kidding? You were THAAAAAT close to a 95, it shouldn't matter. Unless, of course, that 0.2 was the difference between you getting into a course or not. When i told my parents my ATAR, they said 'Yeah, great.' and all that stuff. They didn't say it, but I could see in their eyes...
