ok thanks heaps for ur reply Laz it is very helpful :) and just wondering, how do u personally find comp sc? is it heavily maths orientated, and do u enjoy it? and have u always wanted to do law, or did u decide that u wanted to do it after u went to uni or when u got ur HSC results back...

yeah mate sounds pretty right to me if he's telling the truth...compare to these rankings of laurence field (who went to sydney grammar) last yr (i was reading this post the other day - similar amount of people doing eng adv, xt, maths ext,...) -...

ok thanks mate...law essays just generally extended responses? or same as the typical english one with topic sentences, intros, conclusion, rigid structure etc?

that exam looks mad - what yr of the course would work of that type be? yeah i dont mind writing essays, i was just wondering whether we still need to be able to write quickly in in-class situations in pen...none of the final exams r take-home?

oh ok thanks...so those exams that are in-class essays, most of u guys would handwrite? do many people laptop it (is it allowed? i think it gives quite an advantage in terms of speed for people if they can type fast)?

what do u mean by that?

so if u majored in computing for example, "laboratory" work would only be actual working on computers (as opposed to actual science lab stuff)?

just wondering - do u have to write in-class essays and get assessed on them in law, or are all ur essays take-home assignments? coz otherwise, u still have to keep up this high school thing of having to be able to write really fast and legibly for examiners? if not, what kind of in-class...

so subjects like computing and math-related ones have less hours? is lab work compulsory in the science degree? i heard somewhere it was (unless this means comp prac or something :P? coz i hate scientific laboratory stuff...) are there any compulsory units of lab work in the BSc degree, or can u...

I seriously dont know what to do ay - Im torn between law and actuarial really, but I don't know exactly how I'm going to like either of the courses - u can hear so much about them and that they are "intellectually challenging, etc" and "they involve lots of maths/ or heavy reading and essay...

yeah that sounds like a good course, I just want to know what its like more, and how heavy the law component is...I PM'd Laz before but got no reply, I'll try again now :)...I would be really interested to get his opinion on it. how do u personally find the comp sci degree? how do u think...

sounds like a good course, but I dont wanna live on campus, and UNSW is approx 2 hrs from where I am (central coast), so macquarie is better for me - they also offer commerce (actuarial) and science (computer science) as a combined degree. u do a B Comm/B Law? what is that like in terms of...

please go to http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=93089 - I am unsure of whether to take actuarial studies or not - what kind of maths will it involve? will I enjoy it? what kind of maths did u actuarial students enjoy most at high school? would I have to be very keen on HSC...

I can't decide between what I want to do at uni, but I must make up my mind soon - for a long time I have had my heart set on actuarial studies...but just recently I have started to increasingly contemplate my choices. I initially wanted to do actuarial studies because I love maths, and that...

ha ok...yeah I'm a centre forward - my best assets r speed + dribbling, and flicking...who do u play for and how old r u this year?

yeah pretty much, i talked about the failure of strategies at Singapore first though, but I didn't really have much on the blockade, just mentioned stuff bout US economic superiority and Japan's reliance on their trade
