    Drugs to Study?

    Ritalin is not called Ritalin in Australia. You seriously do not need such drugs to study for the HSC, that is a bit extreme, and demonstrates that if you can't cope with the high pressure demands of a high school set of exams. It gets even worse in uni due to the concept of 'independent...

    Failed HSC = Instant Death??

    Failing the HSC is not the end of the world. There are alternate ways to the university degree you want, like UTS Insearch. If you do fail, then you just have to cop some flack from the parents for a while, but it'll dissipate in time. Don't worry.

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Re: Leaving school depression? Uni's not that bad really. Sure, it may be quite different from high school (i.e. you guys get spoonfed) but once you settle in it would all be fine. Feeling mild apprehension like that is quite common, but you should let it overrule you =/

    Bachelor of Business/Bachelor of Law

    I got in last year with a 98.75 UAI =D Yeah, I've heard the rumours too, but all my friends got 97+, so I suppose that's a base to start from. UTS does have a bonus points scheme, but like any other uni, I don't think it applies to law unfortunately.

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    Re: depression caused by failing everything To the OP: If you're really feeling down, I suggest you talk to your school counsellor. They will be able to help you alot and perhaps this will qualify you for that EAS scheme thing because you've had difficulty in year 12. Sometimes you have to let...

    UTS Wireless

    K, so my Dell laptop has just arrived and I was wondering, would I need to install some sort of software onto it to be able to get onto the internet at UTS?

    Insane work load

    Hi, I'm another BBus/LLB student at UTS - first year, so I'm in the same boat as the OP. Yes, there is a SUBSTANTIAL increase in reading volume from high school to university, but most of the reading, if you really put your mind to it, can be done in about half an hour to an hour. Apparently...

    How does one retain consciousness in class?

    You can find No-Doz is most good pharmacies. No-Doz is a cafeine pill. Or you could get No-Doz plus which has Bvitamin group in it (natural alternative) plus the caffeine. YOu guys are WAAAAAY too young to be considering No-Doz, at least wait till uni!

    what type of english should i pick?

    I suggest you find out what texts and focusses you will be studying in adv and ext english. If you find something you like, then you should take up ext, however, if you don't then don't bother. Alot of people have fallen victim to what they deem as scaling subjects - in the end, it all depends...

    CHEAPEST way to get textbooks

    Hola amigos, I just went searching through the text-lists for Business on the Co-Op website and nearly had a heart attack at the prices. Does anyone know how we can reduce the price of uni textbooks? If it comes to it, I will probably end up buying second-hand or something but for once in my...
