Haha cheers mate sorry I kind of had a minor panic attack there for a second. I saw you were one of the people who got an offer, by any chance did it say what date you have to accept it by?

Anyone...? Plz...

Hi, I'm slightly worried, A course at UNSW was my first preference and I am certain that I received the highest ATAR at my school, yet I've haven't been contacted at all about an offer for the AAA. I'd previously confirmed with the scholarships office that my school is eligible under the...

I got 99.2 highest at a school ranked c. 200's > Does anyone know if the bonus points from the AAA Award at UNSW count for combined law and when we are notified if we received it? Also, does anyone know on the information page about the award what qualifies as an 'eligible high school.' I'd be...

Is this an example of personification? Robertson personifies death row as "cruelty masquerading as mercy", thereby...

I'm inherently quite a lazy person, so for me having more than one "back up" unit would probably result in me giving up on my weakest subject/s after the first assessments. So anti back up, but obviously that's just a personal thing.

Particularly bad seeing as the child was only 14 weeks at the time, I would kind of understand if she was very close to birth but with her being so far out it's totally wrong for the state to go against her and her family's wishes.

This is really good advice, just use the year to work out what you like and what you don't so you can make better decisions when you come to pick your subjects. Also, don't just dismiss subjects you didn't like in previous years- as with what happened to me, your interests and aspirations can...

Jesus Christ, this is considered offensive? I mean, honestly, apart from the historical inaccuracy, this is exactly the kind of thing they should be doing leading up to Australia day. Whilst obviously there have been some pretty dark parts of Australia's history, to not celebrate the great...

I don't do legal, but supposedly it's fairly essay based so I guess the practice of writing essays could help? Modern is very interesting though anyways, and just as a bit of advice, I wouldn't think too much about what you want to drop just yet, just try to approach everything with an open...

School: Hamlet Justice Game Real Inspector Hound Non School: Brave New World by Aldous Huxley The Alchemist by Paul Coelho Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy Penguin History of The 20th Century by J.M Roberts Would like to do more but will have to see how I go with schoolwork :( And Goodreads...

This. My parents are the same and it's nice when you work hard and do well off your own intrinsic motivation rather than external pressure. I'm happy to give this study buddy thing a go, subjects are in my signature, pm me if interested.

Yes please Ty so much!

Cheers, thanks for the help, attempting to rep but already have b4 :(

Yeah, i'd be more interested in the quantitative/ conceptual stuff rather than the history of maths etc. So to do that you'd recommend just getting a textbook and giving some questions a go?

Hi, I've always been somewhat interested in maths, but i've never been very good at it. Because my results in maths were so much lower (like 55%) than the rest of my subjects, I ended up dropping from 2 unit it general mid year 11 and then dropping maths altogether at the start of year twelve...

Also, as the person above me said, don't worry about what other people say/ do. I had a big problem with doing this and kept comparing what I was doing to everyone else, but at the end of the day you need to run your own race and do what you feel you need to do. Realising this really helped me...

It's honestly not that bad, tbh I think people hype it up way too much. Yes, it is a bit of an adjustment but if you're organised and don't leave things to the last minute you'll be fine. Also, remember to have fun. Biggest mistake I made was over-hyping year 11 and doing a lot less of stuff I...

I think its more a problem of universities not being more stringent in requiring students to take specific courses related to the discipline they want to study in uni. However, whilst I do understand that its far from an ideal metric for engineering, I still think that the current system is...
