OT was higher, and I've got a friend in OT that I met through our HUBS tute/PASS thingy, and he seems to like it okay. They're doing Intro to Health Sciences, Intro to OT, Anatomy and Human Bioscience first semester. I've met a lot of Arts students who are doing their majors in Linguistics...

It's really good, I'm loving it so far. Still only in my first semester, so all the introductory stuff still, but it's all really good. 99% girls, you get the really driven people who love it straight off the bat, you get a lot who get a few weeks into it and realise it's not what they...

That's weird, I was in the Basden Theatre for that exam and there were 5-6 seats that weren't taken in ours... but we had people walking in right till half past nine. And even then, we had more coming but she took them back outside and talked to them for a while and they didn't come in. Did...

I went to the Ourimbah one last year, and it was really good. Particularly English Advanced and Physics- English because they gave us an alternate form for essays other than the TEE approach, and Physics because the guy doing it actually had some idea about what he was talking about, unlike my...

It means you're going to have to work a little harder, and some of the chemistry stuff you'll do will blow your mind (hopefully only temporarily) and there are going to be things you'll have to ask about. Only when it says prerequisites does it mean that you HAVE to have done that course...

^ What Em said. She and I are doing basically equivelent subjects, and even though she did General (not 2 Unit as was "assumed" for her course) she finds the stats a lot easier to work with since that is what the General course is.

One of my friends is doing a Science degree, with an assumed "Mathematics" having done General Maths for the HSC, and I'm doing one Psych subject as a part of my degree (assumed "Mathematics") with 2 unit Maths HSC. Because the General course is based a lot more on Statistics than the...

UNCLE Health is by far the best for speech path- the only course I'd really know anything about. Though the people in my HUBS course doing OT and Physio seem to think it's the best for those courses as well. Considering if you do speech in Sydney you have to do a Bachelor's, then a Master's and...

They do the Pass groups, but if you look closely at the different options for the pass groups, some specify as Biomed pass groups, as The Ostler said.

There are heaps and heaps of courses in B Arts though. These are the individual classes you're registering for, not a program or degree. For instance- there are 95 kids doing First Year Speech Path in 2010, me being one of them. There are 600 kids enrolled in PSYC1010- Introduction to...

When sitting my first English Advanced exam (an essay on RMF... how I hate that damn book...) I had a panic attack. I couldn't remember how to spell his mother's name (stupid thing, but at the time it mattered) and the next thing I know I'm propped up in the sick bay on a Nebuliser because I...

Yeah, in theory that's all you have to do. But for the big courses, there can be 500+ kids all trying to register at the same time to make sure they get the times they want. It clogs up the server, big time. It's a miracle if the pages load in under two minutes. And then once it loads the...

My ex is my best friend... he is now gay though. I think that plays a major part in the two of us being able to stay so close- there's a lot less chemistry than there used to be, not to mention it turns out we have completely different tastes in guys. We were great friends before we dated, so...

The biomed pass groups are just for kids doing a B Biomedical Science. The rest of them are for people who are doing other degrees, like Speech Path. I use this as the example because I don't know any other specific degrees that are included.
