    Got a question about cars?

    i have a question: Well it begins with a short story. I was driving to uni today and it was very heavy traffic... I was sitting in the moving carpark when I heard a loud bang (like a bomb going off). I looked in my mirror and the car behind me was clouded by all this white-ish smoke. I...

    Charles Sturt University

    my cousin was in Bathurst for her Early Childhood degree and she loved it. I would actually love to experience being away from home and living with a bunch of uni people! One thing that took her a while to get used to when she got back (to Sydney, that is) was that people aren't as friendly...

    Results of Trials

    don't be too worried about trial results - they're meant to be a rough indicator for you... last year in CAFS I originally got 69% for my trial which was revised to 74% after I appealed an extended response, then I ended up getting band 6 for the HSC. My teacher was a strict marker (always went...

    Charlie and the chocolate factory

    I know where you might have seen Violet's mum... wasn't she that bad lady in one of the Beethoven movies?? (I remember the chin :p) I enjoyed the sarcasm in this one and the special effects were heaps better than the original movie. I liked Charlie's grandfather (I've seen him somewhere...

    STAT people

    no calculators are allowed - the questions are basically common sense. I got 89 for my RET/STAT test and I relied upon my own general knowledge. Just watch your time - don't spend too long on any one question. When you do the writing section make sure you're using formal grammar. The...

    stupid question: its vs. it's

    top of the class!! :p The amount of times we've had this drilled into us this year at uni is unbelievable!! I always knew the difference but it's surprising how many uni students do not.

    Hi can somebody help pop culture reality tv

    When I did popular culture (Barbie) we looked at a timeline of her production. If you can get something like this on the development of reality TV, you might be able to see where it began and how it has now become a world-wide phenomena. Do you know of the first reality program that aired in...

    STAT Test confirmation

    Yes they change the questions from Saturday to Sunday. Both the multiple choice and essay questions are changed. The multiple choice questions might appear in different parts of the test but usually they are different all together. :) If you do a few of the practice questions from the booklet...

    why did you chose the degree you are doing?

    why did you chose the degree you are doing?

    I guess I didn't choose my degree so much as I chose the uni I was to do the degree at. I had my heart set on a B Ed (Primary) for ages, so it was really only a matter of choosing where to do it. I chose ACU because of its good reputation for education courses, small class sizes, small...

    S+C Boring

    I had similar attitudes towards Society and Culture at one stage, but by the time I had handed in my PIP I really began to understand how unique the subject is. Not many other subjects allow you to choose a depth study and then focus on any aspect on it you like. The PIP can be a pain, but...

    Acu...need some advice

    well, speaking from an education student's point of view, ACU is a great little uni.. if you like being recognised as a person and not a number, I highly recommend it!! ACU's social life is ok I guess, the Student Association provides events for example, this semester we're having a Harbour...

    UAC preferences?

    well i thought i'd provide the details for all the unis (for a wide range of options) and then go for the advertising tactic :p :D but for reemz, you have to consider what is best for you. Not only uni-wise, but travel, UAI, course structure, duration, etc. etc. A good thing to do is to...

    Plastic Surgery

    i would get a few rounds of laser surgery on my birthmark. when i was younger i had some done and it actually made it fade a little. but with my bad habits of not putting sunscreen on, it is a bit darker these days. one round costs about $140 or something... and it would need at least 5 :o

    UAC preferences?

    yeah, so would i, but I'm so totally biased it's not funny :p ACU has a great reputation for its education courses and you can do a theology strand (if you want, you don't have to) that qualifies you to teach in the Catholic school system. There also seems to be a greater range of subjects...

    UAC preferences?

    First of all, where did you hear that there was an excess of HSIE teachers? Was the source reliable? A Bachelor of Arts is an option for you if you do not get the required UAI for your first preference. Then you can do a post-graduate degree after that to get the teaching qualification. A...
