I'm pretty sure there isn't a unibar in building ten, the ones I know of are the Glasshouse on level 3 of the Tower building and the Markets Bar in Union Centre Block A of building 5. There's also the Loft which is sort of behind the Glasshouse.

Yes, most first year law students go so any bosers that started law at uts last year probably went. I know at the very least that a friend of mine who occasionally uses bos went, and I'm pretty sure joe m went last year considering he has mentioned it in several threads. So yes, bosers have gone...

O-week is pretty much the week before classes start, there are stalls around for various clubs and societies, sausage sizzles and the like, maybe a little music. It really isn't that exciting unless you live on campus, I remember being massively dissapointed about O-week when it happened simply...

Re: The UTS 'Secks and Welcome the New Students' Thread We'll probably have to get a cityrail sticker put on our cards each year, kind of like the UNSW and MQ people have. I'm wondering about what happens if we're at UTS for longer because our study has been extended e.g Honours...

http://www.law.uts.edu.au/students/orientation/ocampfaq.html ^That has pretty much all the details about law camp. It is a pretty big thing and almost all of the first year law students go to it.

Ph.D stands for a doctorate in philosophy, exclusively by research (I think - someone feel free to correct me), however this doesn't mean that you must research a philosophy topic as it has become somewhat of a traditional name for alot research doctorates now, for e.g there are PhDs in cultural...

I agree with glitterfairy - the UAI/HSC becomes incredibly useless once you're in the course you want. At best you might get a small handful of the people who got 99+ being nosy about it, which usually stops after a few weeks. Otherwise, no student, lecturer, tutor or future employer will care...

Its funny how friendship works, I remember being in primary school hanging around almost exclusively with the same 4 or so people but then things started getting rocky once I went to highschool because I got into Caringbah Selective and they didn't. So we slowly started drifting and not talking...

Tafe isn't the only other option, there's non-award, SWIC, UniAccess, Open Education ... its all in the link and someone with a UAI of 50 can still use those options. It also isn't that hard to get from TAFE to uni. Anyway, there is no limit as to how much money you can earn during the HSC...

Repeating is an option, but if you can get into university (even a different course or uni) then it would be better to do that than repeat. An example would be a girl who was in my Ext 2 maths class - she was repeating all of her subjects apart from english and performed slightly better in all...

They do O-day, its a day and a half where all the clubs and societies put out stands in order to get you to join and there's usually a free sausage sizzle. Thats about the gist of the 'fun' stuff.

Re: The UTS 'Secks and Welcome the New Students' Thread It is odd, but I almost feel enthusiastic about the idea of having all these newbie communication students wandering around uni in a short while... I wish there was a mentoring program or something like they've got at USYD and MQ. I'd love...

http://www.utsunion.uts.edu.au/clubs/activities/club_pages/index.html For society stuff, go there and just click on a society that interests you. You should then see a description of what they regularly get up to and how often.

A) Ad hominem. B) Not relevant - it is logic, not qualifications that matter. C) You have not done a 'scrap of university biology'. That assumes that the foetus is alive to begin with, and you cannot base an argument on such an assumption when it is the point of contention. Second, what are...

Well how would anyone know you're doing the Diploma and not the Bachelor unless you tell them? You are doing the same units after all. You also shouldn't worry too much, people at uni learn to get over themselves somewhat - otherwise you'd have all the law students snubbing everyone else.:p...

Perhaps the best Holmes novel is The Hound of the Baskervilles, it is very complex compared to the others and chock-a-block full of red herrings. It is also fairly popular with crime fiction students if that is a factor for you. If you're looking for something shorter, then The Dissapearance...

I know its possible at UTS, I also suspect its possible at MQ but I'm not sure on that count.

If the demand outweighs the supply then cut-offs will rise, if supply outweighs demand then cut-offs will drop. So it really depends on the popularity of a course.

Thats shitty of MQ to do - maybe its a rep building thing 'we have the highest achieving psych students, hear us roar'. UNSW, UWS and UOW take students with '4th year equivalents' if thats any consolation, though it appears USYD doesn't even have a Masters in Psych and they seem to have...

a D in a 'bigger' module contributes more to your GPA than a D in a 'smaller' one, if thats what you're asking.
