I've gotten by just using the readers - but the recommended texts are usually good references for assignments, obviously. Majority of these books you can find in the library. I wouldn't just on the bandwagon until you know that you really need the textbook, otherwise you'll end up with a pile of...

Mm, got the times that I wanted. You learn to do them in a certain order so you go for the ones with limited 'good' tut times, and the other ones later.

Yeah, a lot of people realised it wasn't what they thought it would be; that it was harder than they thought; or that they were merely using it as a stepping stone to another degree.

You should be careful about subjects that run tutorials during first week (majority of UWS courses run their tutorials during first week). This is basically because we lose a week during mid-session break (it's counted as a uni week), unlike other uni's where mid-session break isn't considered...

Ah, they must have increased the offers for the course. Last year they released a file about course numbers being offered in 2005 and they only had 65 for the B Pol. Yeah, we started with over 100, give it a year and you'll be down to less than half. Shocking, but proven time and time again :p

Mm, there's one down by the oval. They usually give out fliers during the first week of uni.

The UAI cut-off this year for the B Pol was 65, down from 75. Ironically enough, the number of first year students in the course this year is 65.

Yeah, you can add your own backgrounds and such .. but I think it's pretty limited. I just have all my e-mail forwarded to my usual address.

I actually got a job using that site - it's pretty spiffy.

They've raised the fees since last year ... by a nice $30 or so a session.

I only know of co-op online: http://www.coop-bookshop.com.au

Currently I just have one reader at $28.55

I've been travelling by train and bus to Bankstown for the past two years and I haven't experienced anything dodgy - I'm just assuming it's stereotypical. And yes, it's in Milperra, not Bankstown. As for Parramatta/Westmead - I'm also attending uni at the UWS Westmead campus (travelling by...

UWS is actually very accepting, considering they have prayer rooms set up on campus'.

You don't have anything to worry about. I don't think it's ever been made an issue of considering that we're all supposed to be somewhat mature minded at university. Not to sound like a complete nut, but I'd like to think people had better things to do than to discriminate against people at uni.

Haha, you're just jealous of my 1337 photographic skills, de ;)

It happens a lot at UWS - you get used to it. During the session it isn't too bad. They've got mass enrolments (like other uni's, naturally), but don't exactly have the funding to back such things. They do the best they can. If you're pissed off now, just wait until tutorial registrations.

Yeah, he's pretty spiffy. Bought his CD and DVD while I was over in London last month.
