    Marks are out!

    hey, I don't have any experience either...ummm is it possible for you to try and get a Conceded Pass (45-49%)?? Have you failed a lot of the things or just the exam because I know they are given in exceptional circumstances where you perform ok overall i.e maybe just bomb out on one thing...

    Year 11 course advise

    hehehe yes ah wells...do something for long enough and I can guarantee you'll find it boring eventually...not too sure what my backup plan is...but I'm sure I'm one of many hidden talents, however well hidden *ahem* :p

    Year 11 course advise

    it is a pretty competitive industry...but I guess that all depends what specifically you want to do, there's print, tv etc...obviously you start off at the bottom and it would be advantageous to know people but I think if you stick at it for long enough the determination should pay off enough to...

    Year 11 course advise

    now that's a tough one...I might do some totally unrelated job for awhile so I can save up and travel a bit before I tie myself down in some 9-5pm job...I'll probably end up a full time student and spend my life there getting qualifications I'll never use hehe...but I'd like to get a job as a...

    Year 11 course advise

    haha perhaps some would...but no one assumes guy doctors are gay so that seems just a little peculiar...but oh wells if you like the teaching option better than strive for that...so long as you don't let the fact people may assume you are gay deter you from being a nurse...there is no reason you...

    Year 11 course advise

    hehe no I don't think so...there is nothing wrong with a guy teacher or nurse...these days I think it's more acceptable to be whatever you want to be. Being a chick though if I were sick I think I'd much prefer a nice looking male nurse any day so I'm all for that! Any preference out of these...

    Year 11 course advise

    I'm first year...well finished first year at UWS milperra doing a BA (Communications) and taking italian as my elective. I was thinking about transferring to UTS because I've got a distinction average but I didn't have time to hand in a personal statement so I'll probably stay where I am...it's...

    Year 11 course advise

    umm it wasn't really an issue as I made the choice based on my interests and what I was looking to do at uni...journalism didn't really require maths so it wasn't a problem and my other interest which it could possibly have had an impact on was my interest in programming and such as more...

    Year 11 course advise

    ah it's not all that bad!! the scaling might not be the best but they're still good subjects...and not everyone can get a UAI of 90+, it wouldn't be so fantastic then...and I forgot to mention that I have a load of prelim biology notes...like I summarised the entire prelim part of the...

    Year 11 course advise

    indeedy you do not!! that is what we are here for!! I mean I have to fill up my 3 month break from uni some how and what on earth would I do if I didn't sit here all day posting post after post?? hehe perhaps go get a life?? Seriously though, if you need any other advise just ask and someone...

    hours>?

    as far as I know lectures and stuff like that change from semester to semester but if you're looking just at first semester next year the timetable should be up on the uni website...you probably don't know the specific units though?? Once you do you should be able to check unless someone here...
  12. Jacks

    recheck?

    did you mean to post this thread here? Anyways I did IT last year and I got less than I had been getting...76 or something I don't remember if that's right but meh. ummm it's worth getting checked if you really want to make sure, I don't think it's likely that you will have marks deducted...

    Anyone bum out like me??

    wow that's great news, congrats!! Well good luck with it all...and maybe some other people can find some hope in your good news...the moral of the story: keep trying ;)
  14. Jacks

    Anyone bum out like me??

    I know what you mean...I did fine but was still depressed...hehe not as well as you though...but so long as you're doing the course you like it's all good...the same goes for anyone...forget the marks and work hard at getting where you wanna go :) And as for the transferring from tafe to uni...
  15. Jacks

    Anyone bum out like me??

    well if that's the case that doesn't make much sense considering my friend went to tafe for only a semester before transferring and her uai was only in the 50s or so. She said she did well and was able to transfer...how is this possible if what you're saying is true?
  16. Jacks

    Anyone bum out like me??

    yeah I know that's why I didn't understand what you meant...since you already have a HSC that isn't a concern for you...do you mean is that an option for people generally?
  17. Jacks

    Anyone bum out like me??

    I don't see any signs of bombing out there...you've done really well I wish that was me on a bad day hehe. Congrats on the great marks

    Year 11 course advise

    careers advisors yes, just at school and stuff...I didn't actually know someone would bother to pay for someone to decide for them...I mean only they themselves once properly informed know what would suit them best and what they are interested in. Though we are here to help, don't worry...
  19. Jacks

    Anyone bum out like me??

    what do you mean drop out of school and not complete the HSC...you get a HSC no matter your UAI...I don't understand what you mean by your first point...but yes you can apply for uni as a mature aged student...

    UWS Reputation

    well I don't know what my friends think, I don't think they looked down on my decision to go to UWS...but I wouldn't have made my decision based on their opinion of it...plus the only other course I liked was a UTS (Journalism and international studies) and was high 90s, since that was never...
