    B Economic & Social Sciences

    Exchange units are for people who go on exchange to a foreign university. They're used as placeholder units to represent the study you do overseas. Power and society isn't running this year, they've replaced it with international business + politics. I agree with all of that. (And I've just...

    O-Week: Worth it?

    I can afford $99 and I don't mind supporting the union, but I'd like to feel less of an idiot when I shell out the money and then save a grand total of about $8 all year. Unfortunately the only things I buy on campus regularly are magazines and bus tickets, but guess what items the access card...

    Picking subjects

    Come February you'll be able to change your enrolment online. You can add new subjects until Week 2 (I think), and can drop subjects without financial penalty until March 31.

    O-Week: Worth it?

    Alastair is completely awesome. I really wish I could take his course this year, but I'm already full up for that semester. :(:(:( Rome/Greece is all that Usyd offers in the ancient history major. Why has the union suddenly decided to force us to buy the Access card to join C&S? (And are...

    No, it won't be cancelled. If you then get offered Macq in the late round you can choose whether to stay at UTS or cancel your enrolment there and move to Macq.

    Liberal leaders set up council to win back support

    I love that the state coalition is all "We're going to be united! We're going to rally round and WIN BACK POWER!" in a month where internal squabbling has already unseated two coalition leaders, and where the Queensland national party has just gone back to Lawrence Springborg, a man whose...

    Pharmacy @ USYD, cutoff?

    All Usyd degrees have 24cp per semester standard. At other universities 1cp means a different amount of work, so you can't compare credit point values between unis.

    Structuring units of study/Degree

    Yep. They don't need to be in those positions in the structure - the uni doesn't care what order you do your units in as long as you do the right number - but those are how many you can do. No limits on junior units per semester, as long as you don't go over the overall limit on junior units...

    Structuring units of study/Degree

    You'll have some electives which you can choose from anywhere in the faculty (or outside the faculty, if you wish). Have a look at the structure on this page, the light blue boxes are electives. The longer list is all the units within the GOVT department, the shorter list is the units that are...

    Law movies

    Simon Target did a documentary series about Sydney barristers for the ABC several years ago. I think it was called 'Rough Justice' or something.

    i Don't Understand How The HELP Scheme Works!

    Re: 回复: i Don't Understand How The HELP Scheme Works! For FEE-HELP, there's a 20% 'loan fee' which is added to your debt. Other than that, no interest is charged (other than indexing to inflation).

    ECOP or ECON?!?!

    I don't know anything about ECOP and ECON, but you've got an error in a different part of your list: GOVT1105 (Geopolitics) doesn't run in semester 1.

    missed unsw law by 0.05

    Didn't Howard remove the cap on DFEE places a couple of years ago? Anyway, the point is that sixty more people wouldn't have missed out because there would be 130 CSP places rather than 70.

    hai guyz do u think we should tattoo DFEE on fee payin students foreheads?

    Yes it is. You can't have a standard entry procedure that's so expensive that a significant proportion of the population can't afford it.

    hai guyz do u think we should tattoo DFEE on fee payin students foreheads?

    Great, so you only have to pay $20,000 upfront rather than $100,000. I'm sure that's easily achievable for normal people.

    hai guyz do u think we should tattoo DFEE on fee payin students foreheads?

    Except that a massive number of degrees, including all combined degrees and large numbers of four-year degrees, cost above the limit for FEE-HELP loans.
