    That infers that you would be independent so you would be entitled to welfare if you only made that much per week. So no, you wouldn't be living on $1.50pw.

    Professor Room says that "at the lower end... it would be hard to say which was riskier". However, he tells Fact Check that at "higher levels both in the moment and cumulatively over time, clearly alcohol is riskier".

    Marijuana has legitimate medicinal uses and prescriptions have gained traction where it has been legalised.

    A Norwegian students desperate call for help

    From what I can gather, it's probably best if you look at issue as a lifestyle choice. In other words, would you rather live in Sydney or Melbourne? You'll be spending two years in a new country so I would recommend basing your choice on how you want to spend your time in Australia. There are...

    For those who have graduated.. where are you now?

    I somewhat agree with this, at least in terms of the whole entitlement thing. Believe it or not though, I've seen loads of high achieving, focused students struggle to find jobs while the bludgers find work immediately. Everyone should realise that being a well-rounded graduate is the key to...

    HECS isn't been abolished. You only start paying off your debt when you reached a certain level of income. The poorest of the poor can still afford to go to uni because of HECS and will only start paying it off when they can afford it.

    ECs

    In my opinion, it isn't worth trying to force yourself to do something to get it on your resume. If you're interested in sport, then I would recommend joining a club. Maybe you can help coach one of the younger teams?

    Resume Writing - Correct/Appropiate Order

    Two words of advice: Don't make it generic (tailor your advice to suit the position you are applying for - I figure it may be less relevant if you are looking for part-time/casual work compared to full-time work) Don't make it too long; the punchier, the better.

    English and Eco should be top third imo. 3U and Modern History will really work in your favour but i'm on the fence with 4U. I'm not sure what the calibre of students in your 4U class is at so it's difficult to make a judgement there.
