    Nearby hilly areas around UNSW

    Does anyone know of any nearby substantial hills around UNSW that are quite void of people and not actually in UNSW? I'm looking to spend my break time at uni at somewhere deserted to get my fitness up without people looking at me and finding me a wanker. Thanks.

    Accents

    What accents do you find the most charming? Personally, I like the West Country, valley Welsh, Geordie, Kiwi, Cockney, and Afrikaans accents. I hate to say it, but I find the Aussie accent one of the least charming, but maybe it's one of those things where being surrounded by it all the time, it...

    CHEM1011 Diagnostic Test

    Right, so I haven't done HSC chem in three years, and I have forgotten almost everything I learnt about chem.

    Past exam papers

    Arabic?

    I'm not very savvy in regards to uni terminology, but for those who are doing a major in Arabic is it worth it? Is the teaching quality good (I have been hearing some bad stuff about language courses at USYD especially for French)? Would it be realistic to do a combined degree of Physics and...

    Purchasing textbooks

    For the prescribed textbooks does it really matter for the ISBN to be the same when purchasing them? Because I have found a substantially cheaper textbook of a newer international edition from eBay and I do not want to purchase it and then go to the lectures only to find out that my textbook...

    My teacher is a haughty, imcompotent, unrealiable egotist. What can my class do?

    My class is just about near breaking point with our English teacher. She is constantly away when we need her the most and when she is present, she castigates us unfairly for not completing work which she has delegated to unqualified substitute teachers (how the bloody hell are we meant to...

    I know that there must be a violin, trumpet, (maybe a French horn?) flute and drums in there but because of my musical ignorance (which I apologise for) that is all I can gather from the following piece- YouTube - Saving Private Ryan Soundtrack - Revisiting Normandy Any help will be...

    Out of curiosity, do you guys give money to people who ask you on the street? I have given away probably $50 since I have been going to Sydney (espeically down George St and at Redfern) this year to people who I believe are genuinely destitute however two days ago this scrawny middle aged...

    Has anyone ever bought a book online before?

    Especially from 'The Nile' bookstore? I'm strongly considering buying a dictionary from there to take full advantage of its interim free shipping, however, I have never ever bought anything online before. So, I just want to ask those of you who already have, are the books that you have bought...
