what should I do ? UTS or SYD ??? (1 Viewer)

[Lazy Lankan]

ok so I got my first preference at Sydney (B Computer Science & Technology) but only recently I realised that I like my 2nd preference more (UTS - B Maths & Computing) ... then I changed preferences and I am waiting for late round offers ... I enrolled in Sydney though (just in case) ... and now I'm not sure what to do!? If I get a late round offer I don't know whether to accept it or stick with Sydney!

Does anyone here do either of these courses?? I've been asking around and people say that UTS is better if I am doing a computing degree, is that true? I'm about 95% sure that I would accept UTS if I get an offer - but it's not 100% is it ?!

oh and btw .. probably a dumb question - but I'm clueless - what's the difference between a tutorial and a lecture?

thanx in advance ...

just a little info, the B MathsComp course offered by UTS is owned by their Science Faculty, well.. not there is anything wrong with the science faculty..

going through its core subjects and specialisation might give you some idea..

yeah I know that it is run by the Science faculty ... and yeah I went to that site last night ... but is there anyone here that actually does one of these courses? and can some1 plz answer the 'dumb' question ?

Yo Lazy dude! A lecture is when everybody crams into a big hall, and listens to a lecturer. A tutorial is when you're divided into small groups, and you get to ask a tutor questions on things you don't understand during the lecture, and also to do your homework. Cheers.
