Something strange happened yesterday - I turned my comp on and tried opening Firefox, but got this window where I had to choose a 'profile' (I think, I can't remember what it was called!). 'default' which was the only one avaliable didn't work because it said that 'it was already in use' or...

Has anyone done this before? I'm reading the Summer School info booklet and I just want to do a course that doesn't fit into my normal program just for fun (as opposed to doing it because I want to accelerate my degree). I'm a Broadway student, and AFAIK the fees are waivered for us (I'm...

If I did Economics and Social Sciences/Law, would I be able to choose two majors? If yes, can one be a major avaliable under a Commerce degree (finance, marketing, accounting etc.) and the other being one under the EcSoSci degree (Political Economy, Government and Internation Relations...

Been reading some threads, which raised some questions and I just want to see what people think about them. Do you think if everyone attained a university education that our society would be better off? That has been the impression I've been getting around here: 'get an education, benefit...

I just received that letter today about the Broadway Orientation. I'm not sure if I should go, I think I'ld feel a bit awkward there. Is anyone going?

Javascript isn't working for me on both IE and Firefox. Annoying, this means I haven't been able to rep anyone or read my mail and a whole host of things. A friend came over a few days ago to network my computers, and I don't know if that would affect my browser's ability to open javascript or...

I've been using Norton Internet security with the Ad Blocking uption turned on, but I can't get it to block ads when I'm using Firefox. It blocks ads in Internet Explorer only it seems. Is there some way to configure it so that it'll work in Mozilla as well?

A thought suddenly struck me: are laptops permitted in open book exams? I'm thinking with Law especially, it'll be really useful for organisation of notes and think of how cool the search/find function would be? :p Somehow I doubt this is allowed though, but... I've never seen it mentioned...

Okay well, title speaks for itself. I waited in lines for 4hrs enrollment today and spent another hr wandering around outside looking for food! Where can I find nice, inexpensive food around there???

Can anyone tell me what textbooks were necessary for the compulsory commerce courses (ACCT1001, ACCT1002, INFS1000, ECMT1010, ECON1001 and ECON1002)? I didn't get any information concerning them at enrollment, but I just want a general idea of how many and the important textbooks that I might be...

A year ago I was planning to get a friend to build a new comp for me, but then got sidetracked so I never ended up getting one. Back then these components were pretty much top of the line, but I've lost contact with him now so I can't ask him to upgrade. This was exactly the list that he sent...

I've been researching Science (Psychology) at both UNSW and USyd because I'm interested in doing Science (Psychology)/Law. While UNSW's Science/Law necessiates only 17-18 contact hrs per week, USyd's is in excess of 23 hrs. Furthermore, UNSW only requires me to take around 4 science elective...

What's maths at uni like? I'm considering Science (Psychology)/Law but to qualify for BSc I need to do 12cp of Maths and Statistics. For HSC I did Maths Ext1 (95) and Maths Ext2 (89) but Maths isn't an area that I'm particularly skilled or interested in. I did find that maths classes in high...

I looked up this combined degree in the handbook (http://www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/programs/2005/4770.html) and saw a section I didn't quite understand: (The separate entry - http://www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/undergraduate/plans/2005/PSYCA14770.html) I took this to mean that...

I'm considering Science/Law particularly because Psychology sounds as if it could compliment my law degree quite well. At the moment I'm not considering it as a stand-alone degree, but as something that would facilitate my legal career. What I'm worried about is that I've never liked sciences (I...

Been neglecting to ask important transport questions... What's the best way to get to Camperdown campus from the Western suburbs? Do I take a train to Redfern and walk in (how far is it from the station?), or to Central and catch a bus? And are there buses which go to Redfern/Central from...

The current stock of smilies is really quite pathetic! Not enough to represent what I really want to say - and from someone who overuses smilies, that's like smiley-starvation. :uhhuh: I LOVE Vogue's forum smilies. See forums.vogue.com.au/. Lotsa nice ones including: and and and and and...

Since 1st year seems to be all core Commerce units, I shouldn't have to choose my major upon 1st year enrollment right?

I received a letter from USyd Faculty of Law a while ago that mentions that they're building a new Faculty of Law building on the main campus. So there's no law facilities there at the moment (library, moot courts) and students have to go to the St James Campus? What I thought was that since...

Can someone point me to some of those threads comparing law between UNSW & USyd? I never thought I'ld actually have the UAI to get in, so I didn't pay much attention to them. Should actually read them now that I have to face the task of choosing which. I remember a particularly amusing one where...
