hmm not bad... at least physics doesn't count i'll also break the pattern of all the 1st placers here.... let's say i go to a pretty competitive school in the top 40.... my highest mark of the trials ive received back so far has only been 66% (below average). yeah pwning the hsc is basically...

hmm oh yeah that's true, i suppose i'm just needing more closure cos it's a new degree... actually another one of my preferences is a new one as well and they're all related in that they focus on global and cultural studies... a little hard, aye! not really sure what's involved with a more...

... dumb question, i know, i know. but what is this all about?! uac book said it's a great prelude for graduate medical or law program. so is this a bit of a useless course on it's own, otherwise? i know it combines humanities, social sciences and science subjects... but great, what do u do...

...new course in 2008. i only saw this a while ago flipping through the uac book. anyone out there thinking of doing this? for the people that go to macquarie, what're your thoughts on how good this new degree will be? i'm not really sure what it's entirely about, it was pretty brief in the...

Re: First Preferences? oh pfft. its only decisions about our future... :P i get what you mean. but making these decisions is exciting for me, mostly because i am so ready to move on. (GRADUATION in 5 weeks!) ur choices are so different from each other! what uai u reckon u'll get at this point?

yeah, if it's an essay, all they can really do is give you a direct question or give you a statement which you then have to evaluate. teachers like "Evaluate..." or "To what extent..." kind of questions so u gotta remember to give a judgment and quantify to what extent you agree/disagree for...

yeahh i'm an 07-er so i gotta ask this question i know that global studies is a new course though and so i don't know if many people will know the answer to this question. of course i'll be checking out usyd on the open day but this is just to gain some closure... global studies i'm aware u...

In year 11 I did all the subjects i'm doing now plus business studies. I'm actually happy with my subjects... given enough time to actually absorb it, I reckon I'd enjoy it instead of now hating it for all the content I have to consume in a short amount of time. At the start of year 12, I...

Modules A, B, and C! Whichever ones you studied at school... My paper was just an essay question on each module. Module A for me was Brave New World and Blade Runner, and we had to evaluate how civilisation is defined by its interactions with the natural environment... something like that...

Re: what is the one thing you cant wait to do?? lol good thread definitely can't wait to clear out my junkyard of a bedroom. start reading again (i havent read non-school stuff in ... years). find an excuse to travel. watch heaps of movies. learn to cook...:S...i don't know anything...

Re: First Preferences? right! lol i felt a bit stupid about asking that since my first preference so far is Bachelor of Global Studies at Usyd. It's a bit different to international studies, I think... I always had the impression that international was more politics/economics based. In the...

yeah, hmm well i just have no interest in picking up my schoolbooks at all. i haven't studied anything. what to do with the old friend, apathy? :confused:

Re: First Preferences? really? what's involved with international, anyway? is this more politics/government based, what does it lead to?

um is there anyone here who has their trials next week, who isn't cramming and isn't prepared either? i spent the whole day in the library doing jack... just talking, i've done jack all for preparation, have completely stopped caring and don't know why.. my ranks are FINE, there's nothing to...
