    MBLG1001 Skills test

    Basically shitting bricks for this exam. Anyone done it or got any idea what it's like? I hate their labs so much and I usually get lost and it doesn't help that my lab partner is always so prepared that they do everything themselves and I'm left behind not knowing what happened. And are there...

    Kinda not motivated for uni....

    Basically, the HSC has kinda left me traumatised, I feel like I've used up so much of my energy during HSC that now I just feel kind of unbothered for uni. I really do want to do well in uni and want to pick up my game but I just can't find that drive to study at the moment. And I'm scared to...

    Well I have a math lecture in like Wallace theatre which is a hassle because I will be in the PNR building just before that. I realised that there is a lecture in Eastern Avenue auditorium for the same course, at the same time, can I just go to that one? Just because it's closer. Also, I'm...

    Withdrawing from UNSW offer

    Does anyone know whether I would need to pay any fees or something for withdrawing from my enrolment into UNSW? I received another offer and decided to take that one instead of UNSW's. I read the uni guidelines but I got confused. Would I have to pay even though the semester hasn't begun?

    Transferring out of a course in first year

    I'm enrolled to do b biomedical engineering/b science at USyd but I've been doing some snooping around these forums and now I'm very scared about engineering. Maths seems impossibly difficult that even 4u people can't handle it, so for a 3u student like me, it's hard for me not to freak out...

    What do you think is the ratio of asians to caucasians at UNSW and USyd?

    Just asking out of curiosity as I always get the preconception that UNSW is really asian whilst USyd is really anglo. So what exactly do you think are the true ratios? Note: it's not a deciding factor to my choice of uni, please don't just assume this.

    Do I really need to do a physics bridging course for biomed eng?

    I'm doing b biomed eng and b science (psychology major) @ usyd and I don't know whether I really need to do a physics bridging course in the first year. I looked at the course structure and the subjects I will be doing in the first year, and none have physics as assumed knowledge. In second year...

    Med Science vs science

    The title says it all. I hope to study one of the two at usyd. I already got an offer for science at unsw but thinking about it more carefully I feel that usyd would be more beneficial since all the health-related degrees are at usyd and I hope to transfer into one of those after completion of...

    Are engineering timetables supposed to look this hectic? O_O

    I looked at some other timetables and felt that my timetable is really bad, is it normal? Also can I eat during lectures? Seeing as sometimes I have a straight 5 hours.

    Dual degree courses/timetables PLEASE HELP!

    I'm doing b chemical engineering/b science and I absolutely have no idea what units I;m supposed to take. I looked at the science program in the unsw handbook but it doesn't even give out what courses there are. Chemical engineering does give out some idea of the program structure, in fact they...

    Late Round offers?

    I was debating between chem eng at unsw and biomed eng at usyd and in the end I put down chem eng as my first preference. I got accepted but after talking to uni people of both said courses, I found biomed eng was more of what I wanted (I couldn't do this any earlier as I was overseas and did...

    Would B engineering (biomedical)/B science be a struggle for me?

    I achieved an atar of 96.9 and have studied MX1 and biology for my HSC. The assumed knowledge for biomed engineering at USyd in the uac guide is chemistry and physics. I did study chemistry in year 11 but dropped it because I failed to understand the explanations of my teacher. I have intentions...

    Difference between B Engineering studies and B Engineering?

    So what's the difference? I was looking at some courses and saw a B engineering studies B law. http://www.uac.edu.au/undergraduate/courses/uts/609050.html So when you graduate with B engineering studies do you major in something? Is it any different to a normal engineer?
