Hi, I was just wondering if there was really any point in studying Media & Communications as an undergrad in Uni for a potential career in journalism. Do employers even care about communications degrees or do they focus more on specialisation (e.g. music degree for a music journalist or a...

Hi all, I'm tossing up between going to UMelb with a bachelor of arts and diploma of music, or USyd with a combined Bachelor of Music studies/Arts degree. So what's the quality of arts like at Melbourne compared to Sydney, especially with English? And what's the diploma of music like? Can it...

Hi all, I guess the title pretty much speaks for itself. While I understand I may not get many non-bias comments posting this on a USyd thread, there was no alternative. Does anyone know much about arts at UMelb and how does it compare to Sydney, especially English?

Hi all, I'm currently agonising over whether to go to Syd or Melb Uni. I want to do arts and music, and while I know it's possible to do music within an arts degree, I would like study a more intensive music course. So what are your opinions of the BMusic Studies(/Arts) course at the Con...

I've just finished high school in Sydney and I'm thinking of moving to Melbourne in a year (after deferring) to study at Melbourne University. The main concern I have is that Melbourne abolished all its combined undergraduate degrees while USyd still offers them. Is Melbourne's method of...

Hi, I wasn't sure where to post this but I've only just graduated from high school and I'd like to start tutoring yr 11 maths. Please PM me if you're interested, my math marks were 94 in adv. and 86 in ext. I'm willing to tutor in both advanced and extension maths, but preferably advanced. I...

Am I missing something here? I didn't even know there was a Module A & C before this board. It's half-way through the year and nothing's been mentioned about them. Or am I just being incredibly thick...?

Well, do we? And is it more so of a warning than in the 19th century? (Consider cloning, abortion, postmodern values etc.)

I have an English exam in a couple of days, and we're required to write an essay on Yeats. So, for those of you who are studying Yeats, what is/are your favourite poem(s)? What essay questions have you done for it (if any)?

Do Beginners languages scale well for the HSC? (I know this has nothing to do with Spanish, but I am doing Spanish Beginners for the HSC, so thought I'd post it here).

Hi, I'm from Sydney but I've been looking at going to Melbourne Uni for arts. I'm also very interested in the Diploma of Music (practical) course they offer which isn't offered at Sydney. I was just wondering, for anyone out there planning to do or already doing this course, what's the...

I've chosen this elective because I've already chosen to do musicology for ext. and compositions stress me out too much. But I have no idea what the standard is like at all. I go to a very small school that places little emphasis on the HSC so I'm kind of sheltered from the reign of terror that...

I don't get it. I recently had to write a short story that "conveys an aspect or some aspects of Romantic ways of thinking." I handed it in today but I would still like to know what other people's thoughts and opinions are on what exactly makes a story Romantic? And most importantly, what...

Hi, I'm lost. I feel like I'm missing some important information about integration using substitution which causes me to keep getting the wrong answer. e.g. Use the substituion u = 2x - 5 to find (Integration sign) x(2x-5)[-1/2] dx (the [-1/2] is meant to be an indice, sorry, it's hard to...
