    Phys1121 or Phys1131?

    After being enrolled in phys1121 for about 2 weeks now.. i just recently found out that i had the choice between phys1121 and phys1131, where phys1131 is supposedly more challenging and thus beneficial to ur education. Is a 90 in HSC physics, 46/50 for Maths Ext1 enough to take up phys1131?

    UNSW vs USYD social life

    From research it seems that both these unis have equally reputable law schools, and hence the decision to choose one falls upon other factors... Distance is not a deciding factor as both uni's would take a similar amount of time to get to. I took a liking to UNSW during its open day.. but...
