MATH1041 is easier but I found it boring. MATH1131 is much more interesting!

I have anxiety and depression and have had so for the past 7 years. I think Schmeag's clarification is important to note, because it is a common misconception that anyone found to have a mental health disorder is reportable to AHPRA. That misconception, among several other things, is what makes...

In the UNSW Medicine FAQ page, Although there are no prerequisites for entry into UNSW Medicine, we recommend that students study English for their final high school examinations. There is assumed knowledge of this subject and studying it is considered desirable for successful study in the...

I would keep the subjects you enjoy and you're good at and drop the subject you don't enjoy so much and you don't perform as well at. This is because admission to medicine is highly competitive, so you want to maximise your ATAR. If you're thinking of dropping one of the sciences, the science...

the dream lives on... good luck :-)

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2016 So the government, the uni? thinks it's a good idea for people to be more well-rounded, a jack of all trades, that kind of thing. So for the people doing a degree from a single faculty (as opposed to people doing a double degree that spans across two faculties)...

ANAT1521 is the redeeming factor. And you have an option to pick up cell biology or genetics! I agree though, CHEM was a nightmare for me.

Thanks! First year in medical science is very fun :-)

Re: Medical science usyd or advanced science unsw for post grad med or undergrad tran Remember an advanced science degree is more flexible if you prefer that kind of thing. I think either one would set you up well for medicine. If you're thinking of post-grad medicine, you might want to think...
