UNSW is a prestigious uni... that is why everyone goes there. *shrugs* It's really your choice then between prestige and better training. Speaking on an international basis... employers overseas would also much rather prefer you to have a bit of work experience along with the degree in hand...

I suppose it came out wrong because of the use of the word "easy".

What about kids stories? Little kids stories are pretty short & there'll be something there about changing self for sure.

You can still use that you know.... you're allowed to use prelim stuff.

Omg how annoying... hmm what if you pick a bit out of a book? Because seriously that short piece is written as if it's been picked out of a novel.

I got one because my maths teachers are not good and my tutor's pulled me out of the gutter to no 1... which is good and I don't regret getting one. I agree with what kini mini said... if your maths teachers are good then you don't need one.

Sally Morgan's My Place :D Uhm for 3u we're doin short stories and there's quite a few in there that could relate to changing self. The author's Alistair MacLeod and the title's "Lost Salt Gift of Blood"

Hmmm like what things? I want to know so I can be *smart* about doing the HSC. At the moment I feel really guilty because I was supposed to do 2 hrs of maths a day to study for my 4u assessment and I've probably only done 1 in the past week. Cheh the bit I quoted was the only bit I saw of...

SMH had all the names...UAI's came out on Friday didn't they? I bought the SMH on Saturday.

I know someone who does it at UTS...and I had planned to do it at UTS as well... I think UTS is probably the best uni for it because of their internship program as part of the course so you get experience along the way.

Well that's really what I mean... I'm not thinking about individual standards of "hard work" but there is a point where *something* is considered hard work isn't there? drolle says that it is possible for anything to be relatively easy. I disagree... work has to be put in to get out.

Well what I mean is that they obviously don't bullshit their way to the top. You did really well ... would you say you found it "easy" to get your UAI?

I believe hard work is the only key to get something over 98. It is not "easy" for the top 1% of the state to be where they are. They worked hard.

Totally... if only :/

I know! You get used to it & being around them makes you want to be single! :P

Haha I'm the only chick in my SDD class... it's fun but they're not flirty... as you said... nerdy :p

I know a girl who flunked her 3u trials and still ended up doing really well (99.25). Don't think it'll screw up your chances of getting 100...

My teacher told me to read Shipping News first because it's supposed to be easier. I'm almost 3/4 of a way through it. Should've started with Shipping News :p

Friend of mine pays $45 an hour for maths tuition... she still flunked her assessment. Just goes to show that if you don't put in the hard yards yourself, tuition isn't going to do magical wonders for you.

Thanks for posting that... will keep it in mind.
