    Can't change Semester 2 units of study?

    He means that he had originally enrolled in 18 credit points worth for semester 1 (which has just passed), but since he failed one of those subjects, the system is counting 12 credit points for that semester only and is not letting him enrol in Semester 2 units because of the validation check...

    Who is studying Environmental Science?

    I'm doing it (sort of). I honestly don't know what I'm going to do with it. Job prospects are apparently good, which is the good thing.

    The outcomes of studying science in Australia

    Yes! Though being the big thing now like any fad career I imagine the prospects in the environmental field will die in 10/20 years. Which is why I'm happy I'm getting into it now (and hopefully out when I need to).

    Careers in mining, oil and gas, enviro stuff

    They should all have significant field work components or else they're not decent geology courses. Usyd/Macq has a major trip to various places in third year, last year was to Broken Hill. Other unis would have similar programs. Meet any geologist and you'll get this answered for you.

    BA/BSc, how do i do this shit?

    For env. sci you're going to be needing GEOS units, and maybe some BIOL or CHEM. I don't know much about linguistics. Your units at the moment are fine if you want to major in Physics and Linguistics/German. I don't know how the combined degree is structured but ideally you'd want to do the...

    purchasing lab coats etc at Oweek?

    You can pick them up at various places around campus (newsagents, etc.).

    I want to be a Psychologist?

    Exactly the point being made earlier (that psychology is a popular first year elective).

    textbooks

    Maths notes aren't sold at Coop, but a different store called Kopy Stop. You'll get directions in the first lecture.

    I want to be a Psychologist?

    More like 1846 for PSYC1001 at Usyd this year. For me, and a number of other people I know (not sure how representative it is of the whole 1500+ students who take it every year), I entered first year psychology simply as an interest/bludge subject and went out wishing I picked something more...

    Being late to lectures??

    Merewether to Chemistry isn't that much of a hassle. As long as you're not doing Wallace to something in Engineering (or something of similar distance) then you shouldn't have problems.

    Semester 1 Timetables (2010)

    You did well to escape with that for four science subs.

    timetable help

    Hey, only telling first years what they need to know. Or else the line for timetable changes will continue to be unnecessarily bloated.

    Semester 1 Timetables (2010)

    You get a horribly unworkable timetable, you go to Carslaw, hope that a staff member there can fix it for you.

    So anyone doing B SC sign here.

    Hah, disadvantaged? No. If you're considering doing further study in geosciences then GEOS1001 is a necessary introductory course, and has a substantial geology section in it. The physical geography section would be relevant too (though you may have to bear through the few weeks or so of human...

    If you're clicking the links on the name of venues, that's the capacity.
