I am not a law or commerce student but I've had friends do commerce and siblings do law at UOW. I hope you are prepared to read...a lot. Writing good notes is key for law. In general, when you get your syllabus for each subject, don't get freaked out by being able to see all the work you will...

Hi there, My friend does Chinese Medicine at UWS and the only reason the ATAR was 75 last year was because of lack of interest in the course (i.e. they didn't have enough people apply for it) so it was lowered to let more people in. I think the previous years ATAR for it was 94 or something...

Not sure about UTS, but my brother does Law/Journalism at UOW. The whole first year is completely law, so journalism doesn't start until 2nd year. If you can deal with driving to and fighting for parks at UOW then you'll be fine. It also depends on where you live. If you go to UTS I'm assuming...

You put the ticket you get when you first enter the carpark into another machine that is at the entrance of level 3A and it electronically stamps it and gives it back to you. Now your ticket has a record that you're a student because you're parking on the top two levels (which are for students)...

You guys are really helpful. If I do commerce I hope to run into you :) And that's a good point about management absolutezero. I'd probably go into sports management or hospital admin if I did that. Thanks again for all the info.

I am so conflicted right now. I was all set on doing commerce but then I was looking through some of my friend's old textbooks and commerce seems so boring and mathsy. Plus I don't know what majors I'd want to do. I look at the managers at work and there is no way I'd want to have their job. (I...

Haha thanks for calming my fears guys. So as a complete newbie, what is PASS? And how's the parking situation at Wollongong? I hear it's shocking..

BUMP. I'm considering entering Arts mid-year, but would we be disadvantaged? I mean are all the usual Semester 1 subjects available in Semester 2? Would we be able to study a language or psychology still? I just don't get how the structure would work starting mid-year. Any help would be...

Hey guys! Anyone else going for mid-year entry into any UOW courses? I've applied for Commerce. Hoping that starting mid-year won't be too much of a disadvantage if I get in..

Howandwhen believe me when I say you do not need to do any maths, phys, chem to do a major in anatomy. I have looked at the senior units of anatomy and the prereq subjects we need to have done to do them, and you only need 12 jnr credit points (2 subjects) of either psychology, biology, or...

Yep I planned on majoring in anatomy and histology through Faculty of Science. To do anatomy subjects in 2nd year and start the major you need 12 junior (first year) credit points of psychology or biology, and seeing as psyc1001 is a must do in first sem, I figure I'll choose to do psyc1002 in...

Hey Howandwhen. I'm also starting BHS this year. I was going to major in German but decided against it because you not only have to study the language subjects which is fine, but also things like German culture, literature and history etc. Im sure it's similar to how the French major is...

Bachelor of Health Science at the University of Sydney :)

I did the HSC in 2008, and though I didn't plan it to happen this way, I ended up taking a gap year. At the beginning having all my friends at uni and me just working, I felt like I was being left behind and had no direction. But this year turned out pretty well for me in the end. I have...

Thank you so much Brownie. I'm pretty certain now Im doing health science and I'm so excited! Could I just ask how you find all the compulsory health units? Ive been researching them and see there seems to be a lot of group presentations and speaking which scare me haha. What are the assignments...
