Is UWS really as bad as everyone gives it credit for??

[Leffife]

1) 93.25 isn't that good 2) Him choosing a uni based on a friend going there and because of its religious affiliation shows that he isn't that bright.

C'mon, 93.25 I know is not 'super' but at least it's a good ATAR. And secondly, it's not nice to actually offend him. He is quite a nice person, and respects other peoples ideas and beliefs. I'm not saying that he is very 'bright' but at least he did his best. I guess you probably aren't religious then... atheist? Anyways, I'm not religious but still... Oh by the way you are a very narrow minded individual (no offence).

Narrow minded or 100% correct?

It's not like they had a plethora of choices of good degrees at good unis.
They couldn't do law anywhere apart from Notre Dame and UWS. Couldn't do advanced science anywhere other than UWS. Etc.

How was that offensive?
I just find it silly that based on the religious affiliation of a university you would go there, when you could go somewhere that is supposedly better, offerers a better programme, etc. and still get all your religious needs fulfilled via the religious societies on campus, bible groups, church on weekends or whenever, etc.
Also, I wouldn't go to a Uni just because my friend was going there either.
I chose to go to usyd even though my friend was going to UWS and they offered me a $5k/year scholarship, just because I thought USyd was better, and I sort of wanted to keep maths for a little bit longer, and wanted to do engineering and science where the programmes weren't completely shit.
I don't think either of the things your friend considered deciding factors are factors an intelligent individual would consider deciding factors, because he could probs see his friend on the weekend, plus all the stuff I said above about religious stuff.

Technically I would agree with you, but since he is my friend... then other things are taken into account. You have an extremely good point (psh you aren't narrow minded). Honestly it was quite a un-rational decision he made, sorry for anything I said that you took offensively as I didn't intentionally mean it.

"I have absolutely no counter-point to the issues you have raised and concede that your point is correct

But I won't admit it"

The more important question to be asked in regards to these kinds of threads (a million of them a year) is not that "ogm is uws sooooo bad?!??!?!?!?" but rather: "Are UNSW and Sydney as good as they're made to be?"

What do you mean? Is doing law @ UWS bad?

[infoleather]

Long scholars must be based on research and publication record. It is usually on the older universities prestigeous.

[iSplicer]

ATAR cut offs reflect demand, not how good the course is.

... and those two have almost a perfect correlation.

well this obviously isn't true. why is aerospace at sydney 99.8? because they don't take many students.

or maybe it's just awesome

I am surprised at what people are actually saying about this University. Firstly, getting into University at all is a great achievement. Secondly, why can't people just be greatful for having the opportunity to have an education in the first place?

We are so fortunate, and it all depends on what the student does during their studies and after that can be a factor in determining how successful someone can be in the future.

Good to see you can see the errors you both made (you in your post, him in his decision-making skills).

And because those few students that do it (I've met 3 so far in first year) are generally more studious.

I think it really depends what course and job you want to do in the end. I think it's a better uni than some of the other smaller unis around the place in certain areas. Some courses I wouldn't think would be your first choice, but like any uni, there are stronger and weaker courses.

Certain CSU and La Trobe campuses have good courses, some UWS courses are good, UC courses are ok...it depends what we're comparing it to.

The most important thing in making a degree worthwhile is the effort you put in and where you get it to take you

[Yeah Buddy]

If you apply early, you get a +10 atar bonus

Your point?

Only one person per school gets the AAA scholarship, and you don't ask for it in most cases. You're awarded it. Hence, Academic Achievement Award


obviously someone's jelly that they never got dat 4k cash money from the aaa

The teacher at my school offered to give it to me.

And I said no.

Kill yourself.
