Am wondering whether you are considered a commencing student when transfering from one Uni to another and thus are considered a new student at your new uni and are charged the new higher hecs charges?.

You can spot 'em a mile off. You ask them to pass the salt and you get told that you haven't provided a coherent and structured arguement to back up your request. Honestly, these people don't know when to leave the uni lingo at the gates and talk in normal voice. Don't turn into one of these...

www.kisa.ca/mbti/ Do the test and follow the lnks. It is baes on the Keirsey Myer Briggs test.

Lesson to all communicationsstudents: I have friend who works in the communications field for a very high profile industry person. She recieves hundreds of resumes from communications graduates. They are very impressive. Course after course is listed to show their initiative and expertise...

Well, I know some place has a course subject on surfing studies. USYD had a Government(political science) unit on STAR TREK movies a couple of years ago. Brendan Nelson would say 'Not happy Jan!'

I see USYD and UNSW have V's after their BA's. How can this be? I thought the UAI was determined by the mark of the last candidate to fill the last place available. I presume they must hold places deliberately for the last round.

The lines on enrollment day are always horrendous. There's nothing worse than waiting in line because dummies don't actually look up what they will study and the subjects they will choose. You can be stuck there for hours while students will just sit there at the front of the queue with...

Where do the other half go?

Even the general arts degree of 70 is roughly what Sydney & UNSW arts was 3-4 years ago. TImes change.

How the hell is anyone supposed to afford $20,000 bucks a year to do a fee paying course unless your folks are rich, or you're a cashed up international student?

Go to www.aboutmytalk.com/f37/s&job Although an American site, you mau think twice about nursing.

Here's something to put the frighteners in you. Got to www.aboutmytalk.com/f37/s&job Although it's American, read the nursing threads for a taste of nursing life. You may think twice!

There has been up to a 22% increase in people applying for the general arts degree across australian universities. You know what that means folks? Up go the entry scores!! This was according to yesterdays Australian newspaper. The 22% is not the average, but in general there has been an...

Once ordained, you score your own house(rectory), get a ready supply of uniforms, and only work on Sundays.

Well, the girls are discussing what they'll wear, whereas I'm sure the boys will discuss how they'll score-and I'm not talking academically. You're bound to have plentiful times with the chicks in psychology & arts faculty in general.

God- who in their right mind would want to study law? Do you realise how boring & tedious the actual study of it is? That there is an over-supply. That the practise of law is not like an episode of Ally McBeal or "The Practise". Good luck!!

Everybody is so timid and scared when it comes to the those first tutes. The getting to know you stuff is also an eye opener in the very first tutes. Going round the room, saying your name etc seems akin to teeth pulling for most. In a sociology unit, the tutor asked people to name their...

Don't take this too seriously. I'm sure people can come up with a multitude of useless degrees to warn prospective students about. I'll start off with the wonderful Bachelor of Communications in whatever. I wonder when they'll revamp these degrees to incorporate bar and...

THose worried about going to the 'prestigious' university need not worry all that much. I've been to both USyd & UNSW, and while I favour UNSW, you are really just a cog on the production line: they ship you in, move you along without that much care and attention, and graduate you in three...
