Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 Is SCIWAM calculated from all intermediate and senior units or just ones from the science faculty?

I think its a lot to do with playing with people who dont want to "do a Bachelor of Science (83 atar) because I dont want to waste my ATAR but Ill go to a Bachelor of Psychology (ATAR 96) and do the science stream." And also from a marketing perspective saying "look how specialised our degrees...

Thoughts????

Id take HSC over Uni any and every day of the week in terms of workload,complexity of content and expectations from teachers of students.

For any other subject Id stress the importance of attending lectures.

You only get your exam timetables midway through semester. If you so have to book now it would be highly advisable to book for only after the end of the official exam period.

Its such an open ended vague question with so many variables to control for that theres really no point replying.

Thats a completely stupid comment. The ATAR requirement doesnt at all reflect the calibre of the student. The ATAR requirement surely shows how in demand the course is.

Read the science handbook and your answer is there

Server crashed :rolleyes2:

You can edit timetables now. Its a pretty bad new system though. Rather than saying all your classes if you have more than one it just says "there are multiple classes at this time".

Not that Im complaining but whats with the change to release timetables in early feb as opposed to oweek?

If you wanted to study science, Im intrigued why you didnt enrol in a regular BSc, where you have access to exactly the same subjects as in a BSc (Advanced) and probably more course flexibility. You could also transfer into a BSc (Advanced) from a BSc. Just seems a bit off how you did your...

Take somethign that interests you rather than something thats easy.

:haha:

Can we ban threads like "How hard is degree X?" Just such nonsensical, subjective drivel. Its a tertiary education university degree not preschool. Its not meant to be a walk in the park being handheld by a teacher. Its mean to be a challenge its meant to be hard and its ridiculous that people...

The required ATAR is 99.5. Your ATAR is below that. Seems pretty obvious. Not exactly like theyre going to be like "yeah you didnt get 99.5 but we'll overlook people who had it as a preference and an ATAR of 99.45 in place of someone we're randomly going to pick who has an ATAR of 99.15" You...

Re: Semester 2 USYD Chatter Thread MBLG2071 every day of the week. Loved the course. Its run by molecular biosciences and is a well thought out well taught course with lots of really interesting biochemistry.

If its a required course for your degree, Id consider re-evaluating your degree. It may be worth trying to transfer to something different, which could also reset your WAM depending on the case. Of course if youre passionate about the degree and its something you really want to do youre going to...
