    Battle of the Broadband Providers!!!

    I have been with Optus (currently on ADSL2 12gb on peak and 24gb off peak) and am switching to TPG. Everyone I know who has it isn't complaining, and it's value for money is simple too hard to ignore. lol There's a thing called churning where if both the ISPs support it, your internet service...

    Enrollment.

    Yeah, it's all done online so you can pretty much enrol right after you receive your offer which is what I did last year.

    Internet Speed

    Well, I know for a fact it's not fake since the direct link is: http://www.speedtest.net/result/649703693.png so someone out there can download at 51515 kb/s

    Internet Speed

    To answer the question, 1megabit = 128 kilbytes. So a 5mb song would take 40 seconds to download. A 700mb video would take take almost 2 hours.

    For those entering Uni

    Yeah, I had a quick skim over the pdf. Pretty much all the stuff in it (except for p.144-150 and a few other things before that) is covered in 1st year uni maths courses. A good way to get a head start (if you can be bothered) if you are entering the fields listed above except probably economics.

    What is UNSW like in terms of social life, for Aussie Caucasians?

    Ok so if you don't care which uni is academically better for arts, and unsw is 50 mins closer to you. Why can't you just forget everything else apart from your marks for only 1 year and go to unsw?

    Hecs

    All uni fees are covered by HECS-HELP unless you want to pay a minimum $500 for each semester and get some discount. You will get it all sorted out when you enrol into uni next year, there will be this page where you will need to enter your TFN (Tax File Number) and chose/enter other related things.

    moving out!!!!

    Also, if he's eligible for youth allowance he would have an extra $250 per fortnight on top.

    moving out!!!!

    Have a look at the eligibility of Youth Allowance, you'll be getting like almost $250 per fortnight which would cover food and other things.

    moving out!!!!

    Umm, actually it does. From my own experiences and the HECS-HELP website "A HECS-HELP loan will cover all or part of the student contribution amount." All.

    Yeah also to add to Omie, that physics course is compulsory for all engineering disciplines except for software and bioinformatics (probably a few others but can't remember). So yes, Physics is necessary

    Off unsw law by 0.15 whats the chances of getting in?

    If it gives you hope, I know someone who made it into UNSW Law with a 2008 UAI of 97.15 with no EAS. No, those requirements are for UNSW internal transfer. So if you are already studying in UNSW, those are the requirements you need to be able to transfer internally into Law.

    Do people exaggerate the difficulty of the HSC?

    no its not that hard, but get some sort of study routine because uni will bite you in the ass if you dont
