    Is it worth applying?

    It's better than nothing, but, mate, why would you want to go all the way overseas and be away from family and friends for an almost equally good education that you can get here in Australia? I recommended you to do your undergraduate stuff here in Australia, and if you're good enough to, do...

    I want to be a Jet Pilot in the RAAF

    I don't mean to be a dick, but a few points: -Australia only has 40-50 fighter jets, and there are probably hundreds and thousands of other applicants each year applying for those few spots to become a fighter pilot. Even if you do get in the RAAF, you're going to go through extensive medical...

    Mental toughness

    What's your definition of mental toughness? What keeps you going when that pain or boredom just seems too much to continue to bear? Thanks.

    URGENT: Liberty, equality and fraternity

    I'm not an expert on the French revolution, but I'll try my best. First step is to read the wiki page of the French Revolution and proceed from there. 1). Analyse how the three-tiered system worked during the Ancien Régime. In doing this, you'll see why the revolution adopted such a motto. This...

    I want to be a Jet Pilot in the RAAF

    Quite sure. He probably has been accepted to become a pilot, so that means he could fly any plane in the RAAF according his results during training. Or he could have been accepted to become an officer in the RAAF with no function as a pilot. But yeah, becoming a jet fighter pilot is extremely...

    A Norwegian students desperate call for help

    What?! It costs $20 for maccas in Norway?! Interesting. I didn't know that. I could be wrong, but maybe it's done to dissuade Norwegians from eating unhealthy stuff. The Norwegians like doing that thing. I think they even banned children toy commercials on TV to stop advertising companies...

    Sneaking into lectures?

    If you're really eager to know what uni lectures are like, here are tons of lecture videos from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) in the US. http://www.youtube.com/user/MIT/playlists

    Joining the defense force

    I personally think it is. It has good benefits; you get job security, a wide range of skills, good pay, novel experiences here and there, and the pride and satisfaction in serving your nation and giving back. It's probably not good though if you are in a relationship or have your own family...

    I want to be a Jet Pilot in the RAAF

    All I know about being a jet pilot is from hearsay, so don't take what I have to say as established facts. 1). Yes, extremely difficult. You will be flying planes that cost millions of dollars to buy and maintain, so they will be selective. You will need to be of the highest medical fitness to...

    Sneaking into lectures?

    Sorry to spoil the fireworks, but the day when you're going to uni is during uni exam time, so there will be no lectures at USYD (which is the reason why they're holding the MH study day at that time). You can look up uni history lectures online though on youtube. Nevertheless, I've been to that...

    Students who did not do well in the HSC?

    Yeah, it's all about motivation towards a certain subject.

    Getting involved...

    You can join the SES or the NSWRFS, if a brigade falls near where you live, and make an honest commitment to whichever of these two organisations you choose to join. Regardless of which organisation you choose, you'll learn new skills and meet great people who wish to make a sincere good...

    Withdrawing from a subject

    You may (a better word would be 'should', but read on) need the signature of the course coordinator to drop the course. With the course withdrawal form I did at UNSW, it stated that I had to fetch the signature of the coordinator of the course I was dropping, but I visited my home faculty first...

    Getting to centennial park, Parkes road BIOS1301

    You've probably found it already, but just in case any future BIOS1301 in future is searching through the threads on how to get there, find Randwick TAFE, opposite the Racecourse, and find its front entrance where the parking gates and bus stop are on Darley Rd (the road crossing Alison Rd...

    Anyone else's uni experience like this?

    Yeah. The descriptions in your recount are almost exactly the same as mine in regards to the social side of uni, and I'm a third year! Same as you, the only friends I have at uni are those whom I went to school with and hung out with, and I agree that school was much better socially. At uni, I...

    Buses during peakhour

    Hmm, OK, so they haven't fixed it then...Are we still going to get that tram service from Central that they were planning to build? Haven't heard about that for some time, not that it's going to be there when most of us are still at uni.

    Number of HSC language students falls to record low

    I'm kind of neutral with this. You don't really need to go to school and take a language subject to learn a foreign language, but you do need to go to school and take science subjects to learn it properly. In fact, a lot of the great polyglots in the world did not learn most of their...
