    Semester 1 USYD Chatter Thread

    really ; a ; what do you mean by better? yeah 1001's the only unit I've done so far so I guess I can't say, but I've never been good at writing essays in general... dunno if commerce is for me.

    Advice to students who just got an offer for Engineering and IT at Sydney

    Oh ok, thanks! I was worried about the selection being too generic & about missing vital info, because there's just so much choice... (And yep, went for an Accounting elective but don't think I can choose anything rn. Also didn't grab BUSS1900 bc it's mandatory anyway, so... whoops. Time to edit?)

    Phew, that's a huge load off my shoulders! I've been staring blankly at a textbook for like... a day... orz... Maths isn't too bad for me, so hopefully I'll be alright even when the fiddly parts of Engineering come into play. Only did 3U though. Thanks so much to you both! Super happy rn~ o u o

    Dilemma! Which course to choose

    I've checked the USyd website and it seems as if they've finalized the ATAR cutoffs for each course - what's listed are the "2015 ATAR" requirements, and the info on-site is for future students. (If you're talking about Commerce (Liberal (?) Studies), the cutoff is still 98.) Don't hold me on...

    General Thoughts: English Extension 1

    Did Romanticism here; I wasn't quite sure how to answer the question so I'm afraid it was quite generalized (& wow you guys wrote so much, I only managed six pages for each HOW DO U DO IT). Also the creative fit the prompt rather well yee. That said, I'm happy to have been able to finish the...

    OPTION: Industrial Chemistry

    Lmao for the 7-marker drew out and described the structures but think I stuffed up general soap (also described cationics as "ammonia with alkyl groups!!") Got most of the uses but generalized a little too much except for phosphate builders and branched anionic surfactants being a...

    E4 raw mark??

    Hmm... ok so 52-3 worst case scenario *breathes* if BoS decides to be randomly mean and takes off marks for messy/terrible working. Ahhh what if you're ranked low in cohort? The school as a whole is ranked well so would that balance out to E4?

    Anyone else too relaxed?

    YEE fellow Romantics :3 good to see - I swear it's not a very popular module! Like it though. Goddamn I'm still writing my final essay/creative but am procrastinating here ; a ; definitely feeling too relaxed. Must not screw this unit tho crycry

    E4 raw mark??

    Ehhhh?! That much? O A O' But the test was actually very reasonable so how high could the cutoff rise? *prepares for worse-case scenario*. Thanks so much for the estimate, though! :> It's really appreciated.

    E4 raw mark??

    Hmm, having looked at the solutions pretty sure I'll get 55/70 give or take, so hopefully that's enough to edge into E4 *crosses fingers*. ; u ; My maths isn't very good (3u here orz) but it was an easier paper, so who knows how that'll work out.
