Cumberland - Health Sciences (1 Viewer)

[mizosoup]

Hey all,
I'm enrolled for speech pathology this year at cumberland. I was just wondering if cumberland students are allowed to attend some fo the more fun orientation stuff at the main campus.
Thanks,
Sam

I'm enrolled in exercise sport science/nutrtion this year at cumbo but i'll also be venturing over camperdown to a few times a week so i'll be going to main campus' o-week

My only problem is that I don't get an ACCESS card and main campus doesn't accept the CSG card (not that we get it until Cumbo's orientation anyway). Does this mean I won't be able to properly participate in main campus' o-week, what with all the things that require you to show your ACCESS card?

its likely...or maybe they'll make an exception for you cos youre a sweet little volunteer.
but yeah- generally the stuff that orange card entitles you to (free gigs at manning, discounts) does not apply to cumbo people and their inferior BLUE union card

 

[franklin265]

that blue union card is the rewards card, yeh?

we get free stuff with that card also don't we? on our campus and other places yeh?

yeah. and its a good card. ive never used it off campus- but its a sweet deal. you swipe it every time you buy something on campus (ie textbooks, food) and then you get a discount.
you also earn 'points' every time you swipe it and eventually those points accumulate so you can buy other stuff for free.
like, if you buy $100 worth of textbooks, points get saved on your card and it works out that you can then use your card to purchase $10 worth of food.

Nelson Data to Wisdom continuum??

We all had a lot of trouble finding anything worthwhile for Informatics A or B (doing C next semester). Its a subject where you really do have to make a lot up, and repeat yourself lots.

But its pretty easy and Basema's a pretty generous marker. Most people managed at least D's.

Were you at the luncheon the other week?? If so, I would have met you there.

WOw. no-ones written on the cumbo pages for ages.
we're all such busy little people.
hope everyones looking forward to the end of semester

 

[nik_noodle]

hey kaitie!

hows sem 1 going?

 

[kaitie]

fabulous. getting really great marks!! and coping pretty well with the stresses of parking, walking miles to campus, long boring lectures and pracs.

can't wait til holidays tho
im kaputt!

 

[Skeeta]

yeah i'm cooked

 

[sharks05]

yeah I'm spent also and now we have that crazy, hectic cramming period. I had my first clinical bracket of work this semester that finishes in week 13... Not sure if physio is totally what I want to do for the rest of my life but definitely going to finish and maybe look to do something post grad. Definitely eye opening semester though....

 

[Katie123]

its funny how clinical has a way of turning ur views on what you want to do.
I'm in the process of starting to think about studying ...1 more assessment due on friday and then 5 exams :d then i have complete holidays for the first time since i started

Hey Gemstar

Sorry can't really help you with your OT question but I am doing exercise and sport science at cumbo.

For this course you don't have to take any subjects to get in but it helps if you do a bit of maths and chemistry during HSC, bio and physics help out too. Sadly i did none of these and i only did P.E, top subject!!!

Yeh it kinda helps out with basic fitness terms and principles and a a little bit about health care (medicare n stuff). I wouldnt say its essential but it gives you a bit of a head start on some of the concepts

hope that helps
