m_isk... that is raw. Make no mistake, 233 is astonishing :p

JamiL I think accounting is what you're after. Maybe actuarial studies and a move to Asia. Or perhaps the life of a stockbroker.

Nanotech at USyd is often described as lacking. UNSW Nanotech is inflexible. Joy for you :p I won't be doing any maths after high school if all goes to plan: you really need to get at least honours to extract any mileage from your maths degree. If you want to do something other than finance...

Anyone do Med/Arts in Newcastle? Seems like the program is really integrated and there's no mention of combining degrees on the website...

There's no local full-fee for UNSW. There's 500 interviewed people, and 182 places. It'd be fair to say that at least 250 people would be offered places (I haven't been able to find the figures and I've been trying for a while now). So make the interview and you're in with a good chance...

velox: try looking up what tier means in the dictionary while you're at it, put foot into mouth. Need I say more, though; this is a stupid and pointless discussion.

If I can take what Graham White (who incidentally, would be a big gun) said seriously, then Chris doesn't have a hope of coming 1st. Brian, perhaps. There are plenty of big names, contrary to what somebody said above. They haven't had a chance to shine given that this year is their turn at...

I doubt you would've achieved anywhere near that in externals. RFTG for example requires a relatively deep understanding of postmodernism, relativism, post-structuralism and many paradigms. It ties in with the excellent (!!) history extension course.

The Sound of Music! Fellowship of the Ring. The Company of Wolves had a good one (albeit appropriated) pfft come to think of it most good movies have reasonable soundtracks, none have excellent ones.

You sum up why maths should be compulsory; it's a large advantage to the English types. It's not a matter of Adv. being easy/hard. It's post-structuralist left wing ideology conveyed as facts that we must regurgitate (synthesise to use their meta language). Extension is much, much better...

I think Cambridge is inappropriate for people who aren't doing 4u. It strays from the path too much (and not in THAT way...).

I have five qualms with the current state of affairs: -English Adv. is retarded -all the sciences are retarded -Mathematics isn't compulsory -there is no medieval history course -can't do the distinction courses without accelerating There's no real need for more extension courses. What...

Mumble raised that. Quite deliciously ironic. :)

You enjoy rubbing it in don't you. :p

In case you haven't noticed, there's been a whole heap of USU and VSU discussion here with the numbers quite evenly divided.

lol I don't know if you know I'm being somewhat serious here, nor do I know if you are being serious or if you know that I'm being serious. :p

We have to return them to get our textbook deposit back lol.

The good old checklist: Are you a plumber? disembowel with apple corer in left hand Are you a sumo wrestler? liposuction Are you a model? inject lard Are you a druggo? tell mother etc etc... (well perhaps not, but I just don't see a jail sentence being good enough for this...

I wouldn't say that the old cartoon ever implied sexual exploits on Dr Claw's part. He's cool.

With all due respect, criminals don't do that sort of thing without prior planning. That's cold hearted brutality. The level of intent is so much worse than if the person wasn't a musician. That's why we need the good old torture chamber. Unleash the victim on them. :)
