    Exam Bitching

    Hope everything will be ok for you Minai. I remember reading you're on a distinciton average atm? If it helps, the thought of putting marks against a bell curve might make you feel better :) as I know they do that for a few of my science subjects but I am unsure about commerce subs.

    Top 200 ranked Universities in the world

    I thought the same thing too when I began reading this thread. I initially thought Melbournian's comments were in jest but his behaviour now embarrases and angers me.

    which uni????????????????????????????????

    I had to make a similar decision last year as my UAI was enough for me to get into either USYD or UNSW for med sci. Last year, the cutoffs for each were, from memory USYD ~94 and UNSW ~92. I chose UNSW for the really huge amount of flexibility in the subjects that you can choose and I loved the...

    Studying @ UNSW – a guide from a student

    I know a bit about parking on campus so heres what I think may help. Parking fee's: There is minimal parking on campus. With that said, the little parking that is available is reserved for staff and PHD students. If you do intend to park on campus, it will cost you $2/hr with 4 hour...

    nsw vs sydney med science?

    I agree with Lexicographer also. The major population of med sci students are looking to apply to a grad med posn. Survivor your "i know so many people in medsc and some wants to get into pharmacy, optometry" is terrible support for your argument. Coming from a degree in science, surely you...

    Advance Science

    This has been brought up a few times before. Someone explained how its because UWS's degree was not at all popular so UWS reduced the amount of seats availabe in the course and as a result, the UAI requirement became insanley inflated because supply was reduced by so much (remember the...

    parking @ unsw

    Parking in UNSW is really hard to come by. I find that the streets over near matthews building usually has some empty spots however I gave up on driving to uni. Parking isn't that bad though if you are prepared to walk 10-15 min (or longer). Things to watch out for though are those pesky 1 or...
