they said they wanted a good income

I really don't think this is a major issue if you make friends with the right people. I'm from a well-off family in Bellevue Hill (Eastern Suburbs) and I for one cannot WAIT to meet people who aren't just from the same background as me. That's one of the best things about going to such a big...

These questions are common...and the answer is always: you can get whatever atar with whatever combo of subjects. I didn't do any maths or science or anything for my HSC in 2011 and i got 99.85 (i know that's not 99.9/.95 but i feel i'm close enough to be able to properly give an opinion). I did...

I know (i can recite that movie word for word) but the implication was there. Ah well we all get what we're all saying here. Point is that although lots of the points I made are trivial, they do amount to prestige which - whether warranted or not - USYD has.

My sister is studying there now, lives at women's college, i go in and see her alot. All my grandparents and my parents went there. My grandpa was a senior researcher at sydney. I've been to open days, doing commerce law there this year. Rather than 'she doesn't even go here', some may call it bias.

Bachelor of Commerce (International Business and Marketing)/Bachelor of Laws - First year. Just got my offer wooo

Law at Sydney University! My ATAR got me comfortably in, but I was still a bit paranoid this arvo so it's nice to have an offer safe and secure :)

I know lots of people like to be anti-USYD (because we're all sooo alternative these days!) but it's definitely Sydney University that would win this debate. 1. It's the oldest university in Australia, and historically has always been the top university in the country. Of course ANU is beating...

I think they got released day after ATARs, although if people reject then they give them to others. I got my scholarship (granted, it was a merit scholarship) on December 15th

It should cover both. I just got a scholarship to do commerce/law at USYD ($6000 a year) and it's been given to me by the business school (as they manage the first 3 years of the 5 year degree) but it covers my combined degree for its duration + an honours year. Each scholarship is slightly...

yeah 15 has to be b. In Australia ratification means we have SIGNED and INCORPORATED INTO DOMESTIC LAW. That's why signing and ratifying are separate things. it can't be a (human rights are universal, inalienable etc. so it's not like ratifying a treat gives people human rights) can't...

100% agree with these answers and your explanations made two STUPID mistakes though so 18/20. I didn't read that those two guys were of different ages so i said heard by judge and jury instead of different quotes (the young guy would obviously be in childrens court with a magistrate garrr!)...

+1. It can't be A, because human rights are universal, inherent, inalienable etc. etc. so no signing of treaty means they now have human rights. And then like you said, 'ratify' in Australia means we've SIGNED and INCORPORATED IT INTO DOMESTIC LAW --> that's why they say 'signed and...

also i think 7 is B i.e. conspiracy AND robbery cos he committed both he might just be charged only with robbery, since that's what he ended up doing. But i think they wanted a mention of conspiracy, spesh since they went to the effort to write 'alex AND dale planned...' etc and this...

I thought 8 was D???? and 15 i still think isn't set in stone far out these questions were hORRIBLE
