    What bag for uni and what to bring?

    A backpack as it lessens the chance of back problems in the future. I've seen people walk around with fjallraven backpacks which might be more attractive than your typical backpack? https://fjallraven.com.au/collections/kanken-bags Also, what degree are you studying?

    Test and compare your internet speed

    Ask for a line test from your ISP? Otherwise, play around with the router settings or see if you have to download any updates for your router. I did that and our internet speed went up by 1.00 Mbps for upload and download.

    can you take a 6 month gap "year"

    People take Gap years, fail units, take units (such as electives) as different times or enter as a mature-aged student (i.e 21+) rather then straight after school.
