    First days / week

    You get 2 free cinnamon donuts when you buy any hot drink from Donut King :) I was in the mood for a cappuccino this morning and to my surprise I also got 2 free donuts....

    First days / week

    Yeah it's been a pretty tough 2 days (except for Monday, I only had a 1 hr lecture). Today was a shocker, an early lecture at 8 and my last lecture finished at 3. Most of my good high school friends are at other uni's and I only know a few ppl doing my course, and their breaks don't line up...

    sgp

    Umm SGP, thats for Year 11, that was a long time ago for me. I'd suggest you do your SGP on something in your local area. There are always local/community environmental issues, so you're probably best to look for something in your area. And by basing your SGP in your local area, its then easier...

    Timetable Help

    Yay!!!, Got my timetable changed, And its alot better than before, except I got 6hrs on Tuesday and 5hrs straight on Friday, But I don't mind too much, at least I dun have 5hr gaps between my lectures. The line was LONG, it was a 30min wait, but it was worth it I guess... :)

    Timetable Help

    hehe, I like that excuse, I'll put on the innocent face as well and I might have to throw in a few fake tears, so they feel sorry for me and let me go back to my original one :p Yeah I totally agree, It only shows you an 'example' of what your timetable will look like, so you don't get a...

    which majors...

    Yeh Finance with accounting is probably the most popular, and it would also work with Comm Law. 60-70K would be very nice, But as alman said, I think those sort of salaries would only be for Honours graduates. But starting salaries are around high 30's to low 40's for ppl with a Commerce degree.

    Timetable Help

    Yeah I found out the hard way, Now my timetable is very messed up, Huge gaps between lectures/tutorials and lessons at 5/6 pm. Hopefully the ppl at the Student Centre can fix up the mess I've created (or rather MyUni created). If they can't/won't fix it, I'm gonna have one very unpleasant 1st...

    Timetable Help

    Hi guys, I've been trying to adjust my timetable via MyUni and I've made a real mess of my timetable, my new timetable is worse than my original timetable. Are they gonna let me go back to my original timetable and will they allow you to make your timetable more favourable? And secondly, is...

    Assessments

    Yeah Mega-cities is pretty interesting, However I doubt it will be asked in the extended response part of the paper because they asked it in last years paper (Which I sat). The big tip from me is that this years Urban Places question in the Extended Response will be something on Urban Dynamics...

    B. Economics

    Yeah I think you may need to do a bridging course in 2u Maths, I've had a look at some of my sister's 1st yr commerce work, and there's a bit of maths (2u stuff) involved in it. I don't think general maths will be sufficient for it though.

    wat 2 electives did ppl pick for commerce?

    Yeah you'll be able to do cpa with these 1st year units. Check the Handbook for all the necessary units needed for CPA.

    the good history essay

    Well that must've been just the criteria for your school's assessment. I'm pretty sure you don't need to include historiography for the WW1 question. The question where it asks you to use the sources and your own knowledge is only worth 10 marks, It is a bit much to expect someone to include...

    Hottest Newsreader?

    She is an ex Channel 9 news reporter, and then Channel 7 probably lured her over with $$$. Same thing happened to Ian Ross (who now does the nightly 6pm news for 7), he used to occasionally read the main news bulletin for Channel 9. But obviously a job as the main newsreader for Channel 7...

    WWI concepts

    Yeah the WW1 topic really doesn't require you to know all the concepts in depth at all, Although it wouldn't hurt to know them really well. Concepts (eg militarism,communism etc.) are more important for your other 2 topics (National Study+ Intl Study in peace and conflict). But don't stress too...

    the good history essay

    Yeah your intro is sooo important, You've got to interest the marker and try make it interesting/readable. The marker does not want to read a bland old intro, my teacher always said that a concise, thorough and "interesting/bright" introduction is a must for a good essay. For WWI, you really...

    O-Week at USyd

    Well what I meant by Faculty O-week, was the lectures/seminars your specific faculty (eg. Science, Art, Economics+Business) will have organised for you, to introduce you to lecturers, ur course etc.

    O-Week at USyd

    For Faculty O-week events (Economics and Business) I'm going to be a loner :( , but for the other uni O-week activities, I'll at least have some friends to go with....

    UAIseeker Vs SAMs Vs JUAIseek

    JUAIseek2003 was 0.05 off my UAI, SAM was 0.2 off. But nevertheless, all these UAI programs are all very helpful

    wat electives did u pick for commerce

    Yeah u need ECMT 1020 for CPA, I think the advisor must've got mixed up with CA. For CA accreditation, you wouldn't need ECMT 1020, but CPA accreditation requires u to do additional units.

    Truancy

    Unlikely to work that well, there aren't too many police around patrolling the streets and even less for so-called Dept of Ed ppl... Unless the truants go to popular areas/hotspots, they're unlikely to get caught, However, even though this is a fairly weak attempt to stop truancy, theres...
