Transferring from USYD to UNSW (Engineering) (1 Viewer)

[Horses88]

I am thinking of transferring to UNSW after my first semester at USYD due to poor teaching and facilities. My main concern is the trimester system at UNSW, it seems extremely fast paced and I see a lot of complaints regarding it. Therefore, how are you doing at UNSW and are you coping fine over there?

I am also an international student and don't have a part time job or anything like that at the moment, so not sure if that would affect my trimester experience. It also does not matter if my holiday don't align with my friends.

any input would be greatly appreciated

Trimester system is fine
I reckon the only reason for its bad rep is because people don't want 3 intense final exam seasons per year, which is fair
As long as you keep on track with problems sets and content, e.g. some light work between start of trimester and midterms, and then focus up until finals, you'll do great
