Yes, that's more or less how it works. And it's up to you what order. Keep in mind (to answer your next question), if you get into a higher preference, you won't get an offer for another (unless you re-arrange the preferences in subsequent offer rounds, which you can do). I mean, if the...

Hah I thought it was pretty good!

Off topic somewhat... But have you seen the Youtube video that that Epic Rap Battles of History channel put up of them? Haha.

If anything (I often find it really distracting) I'll put on a Pink Floyd album that I can sort of just zone-out to or some Lana Del Rey (I like her but all her songs sound exactly the same so you can also just tune out if need be).

I got up to grade 6 formally and quit, but I kept teaching myself up to grade 7. I still play cos I really like it And it was my choice to start but once I did I felt parental pressure to keep going haha.

Really? that's weird, everyone has always told me that you "need 2-3 referees listed". Oh well, suits me not to put them, hah.

Can't believe I got up at 6am for that France vs Ecuador game, so uneventful!

Nah they're just religiously trained, like they do an internship with their church or something. I don't really know how it works but they're certainly not trained social workers/counsellors/psychologists. IMO the program's a bit dodgy. I went to both Catholic and public schools and I think...

Yeah I agree with this. I'm not from NSW and here English isn't compulsory (I did it anyway cos I needed it as a prereq.), but as long as you do a subject that requires some form of essay writing or written communication (so, stuff like economics, history, sociology, etc. are included) you get...

Same here, work unofficially sacked me at the start of the year because my timetable was incompatible with theirs :(

Hey, I'm looking at applying for some jobs, and I just remembered that when I finished grade 12 my school wrote a reference letter. The person who technically wrote the reference was one of my teachers, but I don't have any of her contact details like a phone number or email, only the letter...

The Catcher in the Rye. I'm sorry I just did not get what the fuss was all about. Back in my twelvie days (and I mean when I was 15) I pretended to like it because everyone else did (lol) but I didn't see any point to it. And the way he talks is soooo annoying.

Why the fuck have you got such a huge chip on your shoulder?

I usually go to bed at 11-11:30 then get up at 7 (or earlier if I have to), but it often takes me about an hour or more to fall asleep :(

I didn't ever consider dentistry, because initially what I wanted to do was medical science (hoping to get into research) rather than be any sort of practitioner (it's not that I didn't want to, just that wasn't what I had in mind as the thing I wanted to do above everything else) But I ended...

As far as I know it won't be a problem for you in NSW. Keep in mind that some of the interstate uni's do have chemistry as a prerequisite, but it's nothing a bridging course shouldn't be able to cover. I would strongly recommend doing a bit of reading up about it though because the concepts...

I'm not saying you're wrong, but something like this can't really be construed as "free advice" because essentially you have stated the fact that there's a problem and just rubbed it in everyone's faces ("have fun!") rather than offer constructive criticism about how to navigate poor job...

I know it sounds complicated when you first start it but there are SO many resources out there that explain it really well (including a 70s hippie interpretive dance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9dhO0iCLww ) Don't be put off by the terminology (at first I was like WTF is a ribosome) and if...

Yes, definitely! In fact I think straight-out-of-school people are almost the minority in my year. You can do a year of something else (or two, or however many you want really) and transfer in. You'll still need to do the UMAT and everything, but like that you can get into an undergraduate...

I actually did my grade 12 english essay on this exact topic. One important thing to look at is the fact that the play was written during the renaissance but set a few hundred years before that. So, the "expectations" society had of people were different in both those times. In medieval times...
