ive been so locked out today

 

[hellokitty48920]

some of the highest atar mfs back at my school did like drama bro u cant make it up scaling is actually a lie

yesss literally!! ik a girl who got a 99+ doing all humanities, no science/maths nth. and so many other people!! u just need to put a lot of effort in dont let the idea of scaling overwhelm u

 

[hellokitty48920]

oh also u guys trying to go unsw, trimesters will die in 2028 so if u like them too bad theyre going away

also abt this, will it make our degrees longer/shorter?? soz I have 0 clue as to how they work

 

[hellokitty48920]

bro they ranked girls in their grade and one of the tiers was 'unrapeable'

WTF WAIT WHICH SCHOOL IS THIS??

no need to apologise uni is super confusing !! trimesters actually offers the ability to do 1 extra course a year, though most people do 3-3-2 (subjects per term), which is 8 per year, and semesters offers a 4-4 structure so still 8 per year. so your degree will take the same time

Is it weird that i kinda miss stressing for english

I feel too calm now that english is over... I locked in partially today though for Chinese and Maths but like where’s the panic???

Knox grammar
genuinely most of those expensive boys grammar schools are EVIL... men need to learn how to talk to and exist around women (and also not be surrounded by out-of-touch pompous freaks) so they dont end up like that
i feel like the selective boys schools and other stuff is fine though

Idk if this is controversial but i think co-ed > single sex because then it prevents issues like this by socialising men w women and women w men, which outweighs any academic benefits.
I know somebody who's gone to a private girls school since pre-school and she sees the idea of men as... like... designer handbags. She also doesn’t comprehend how guys aren’t that innocent and stuff

yah i’m at unsw!! i’m doing mechanical engineering and it’s hard but also really fun, i can’t speak for all degrees but i can say that no matter what you do at unsw the facilities are amazing. like nothing comes close not even usyd

if u have any questions abt uni life ever lmk!

as someone whos gone to both private and selective, and both single sex and co-ed, i agree with this 100%

single sex schools are well outdated, which is why many are merging nowadays.

some parents are super traditionalist and are actually preventing schools from merging

Mechanical Engineering is so cool! I was planning on Electrical as my second choice, but I got an early offer for double degree Actuarial + something else. Right now I’m planning on doing BSci (Math) or Information Systems if I can’t handle the former option. If you know anybody who does a Math major in Science I’d like to know how difficult it is.
I kinda fell in love when I saw the UNSW campus, especially the engineering buildings were majestic af. Also the idea of the clubs and societies seem cool, but I’m worried some of them are cliquey. Are you in any clubs/societies and are they actually active??

yep I completely get you. but ive noticed a lot of students esp in the western Sydney area tend to have somewhat sexist traits/mindsets even if they go to co-ed schools. idk if a lot of these guys say things as a joke or if they genuinely believe it... however im 90% sure the type of ppl we were discussing before are a lot worse Its actually shocking that ppl genuinely see each other in those ways HOWWW

sorry long ass message…

i’m in mechsoc and elsoc, (mechanical / electrical engineering) and there’s SOOO many more. societies are funded by the uni and very very busy. there are many societies that have bi weekly trips to the bar down the street . if that isn’t for you (it wasn’t for me) there are so many other societies and they are all very active.

for a math course, there’s even math societies that give you detailed course notes for your courses before you go through them, very cool

i know a LOT of math majors, and yes it’s hard but you partially get to decide the difficulty. some subjects come with a standard difficulty and a harder difficulty (i.e MATH1131 and MATH1141) which you might have to take first term. they have the same course content and don’t really scale differently but 1141 has a harder final exam. so in those cases, u decide the difficulty. i’d recommend only doing the harder ones if you are willing to have sleepless nights over basic courses, other than that, there’s no need to.

math courses are *very* difficult as they are pure math; so conceptual. it depends what math major you do, there are 3 options: advanced math, pure math, or advanced statistics. i’d say pure is the hardest.

so yes, hard course, but nothing u can’t do
