I live in Horlsey. I don't think any classes start at 8 either. The convention is "on the half hour" isn't it ?

Our Computer Science 1A course has 80 pages of lecture notes.

Yes, my Chemistry textbook is 1000+ pages. The Biology textbook is even bigger at 1250+ pages.

Every time last year it asked for 2 explorers. I think it would be good to know 2 in detail.

The course looked good at the time (before I saw my timetable).

It's not as relaxed as you'd think. i.e My Thursday Timetable 8:30am till 11:30am CHEM104 practical 11:30am till 12:30pm CHEM104 tutorial 1:30pm till 3:30pm CSCI111 PASS (Peer Assisted Study Session) 4:30pm till 5:30pm BIOL104 tutorial 5:30pm till 8:30pm BIOL104 practical Oh...

Oh no, that happened last year too !

Computer Bioinformatics. Are you regional ?

It is the University of Wollongong.

Who's going and what course are you doing ?

I didn't end up doing one.

I don't think I woudl have learned anything if I'd just read textbooks in year 12. Teachers are very important in explaining things. Go for Jacaranda textbooks if they cover Chemistry. You might as well do a bridging course, if only to get a feel for Uni lectures. I'm going to do a Chemistry...

Haha, cool ! Is that $ 3500 per year for the three years ? By the way, what UAI did you get ?

Sorry Kate, I meant that it was amusing how after the interviews I got offered none, then when I told them my UAI, I got 2 offers on the same day. They didn't say what the other one was, just that it was 'of less value, so I guess you'll be taking the Acedemic Excellence Reigonal Scholarship...

I'm going to do Computer Bioinformatics after all, because Kristine, the Informatics chick, said that it is more specialised than Internet Science and Technology and that 'it will open more doors for you.' Tell me what you end up deciding to do. What Unis and courses are on your list at the moment ?
