King Lear is massive...but you guys seem pretty well prepared. Relax for a bit and think about it holistically. Do you know the story of the play? What do you feel is important? Why do you think it is important? What have others/may others feel is important, and why? How could you emphasise...

the BEc/BA is not listed - similar format to BCom/BA. My friend is doing it though, so it *must* exist :p

You may want to download the economics handbook from www.econ.usyd.edu.au on page 51 or so they explain the structure of the double degrees (but don't explain how to enrol in it...)

Hey all my hopeful fellow future usyd-ers, and of course everyone else! :D Just wanted to wish you all good luck. Although it may seem that way, it's not the end of the world - try to enjoy the next 4 weeks as being the culmination of all your years of schooling and the chance for the HSC to...

Considering area of study is aimed at the entire state...standard and advanced, an incomprehensible question is unlikely. However, often you can work out a meaning from its context. Considering it is also your extended response question and many of you have prepared answers anyway, write what...

OK, i know this sounds really obvious, but *many* people miss it: 1 - look at what both texts say about "the wild". Decide on a definition for "wild" that you're willing to work with. For me, i chose "humanity" in its natural state. Once you have a definition, go through the texts and decide...

Attach the plan if you don't finish...otherwise shouldnt really matter. Also depends where u write it. My essay plans were on the front page for most of my subjects, so they were automatically "attached".

I think you still do only 4 subjects a semester...and I also think you may be able to get out of the science requirements by doing psych :)

I don't mind it. Most people hate it. If you don't want to major in it, its 2 subjects in first year and thats all you will ever have to do for accounting. Not "fun" per se, but pretty straightforward, and interesting in some respects. I thought it'd just be a case of adding stuff up - so...

Basically yes, i think so. Though check with the faculties as to the exact nature and requirements because I don't want you missing out. From friends who are doing it, it seems that it's the same as with other combined degrees at usyd. E.g i just put down "law" and only at enrollment did they...

Briefly, structuralists understate the importance of hitler and his policies in determining what happened in Germany. They see it rather as a culmination of historical, economic, social factors. Intentionalists instead focus on Hitler as a strong personality with a definitive plan and see...

It does. You get offered a place in economics, and then at enrollment you say you want to do arts as well. :) Check with the faculties for more details.

Approx 200... There are 270 ppl in first year law at usyd. Assuming that there are about 5 transfer students in each law class (from comparing with friends...not sure how accurate that is assumption is) that means there are about 215 places for HSC leavers. I think they said there were...

Luckily, the subjects that you guys want to do, e.g political economy can be done through arts, if you just miss the cut-off, so you can transfer later without really having forestalled your dreams too much. It shouldn't rise too much, without it getting utterly ridiculous, but still, of course...

Frigid - I hope u added stuff about how good u were as well, they *know* how great they are ;)

Omg Frigid...thats prose...Now I understand what I was up against...sheeeeesh! Forget about the scholarship, they'll be ready to install you as chancellor! ;)

there was a survey on p-plate drivers? Haha my personal statement was well...lol so funny what i ended up saying. Hmmm dont think it was too good though. My scholarship thankfully didnt rely on the personal statement! :p

hehe i remember i was the only one of a whole group of my friends who went on the same enrichment day, to not get one. Felt rather upset about that. :rolleyes: Ironically enough, was the only one who actually ended up at usyd. At a later stage someone from usyd asked me if i got the...

I'm sorry to hear that guys :( Do you know if many first years actually did get in?

not necessarily the ACA story - newspaper articles explaining the situation are probs better.
