    Michelson and Morley or NOT?!

    Erm, I am not sure of what you are saying but I think you've used your conclusion to disprove your initial theory... (???) You've probably been through this, but you can't ever prove that something doesn't exist. Einstein did not prove that the ether didn't exist. For all we know, it might...

    General Education Courses

    You need to do 12 units of gen ed all up (and yes, these are hte gen eds everyone in uni has to do). It's meant to be 6 units in 2nd, 6 units in 3rd but as long as you don't overload it's possible to finish them off in 2nd year. In 3rd or 4th year, you'll also have to do 12 units of...

    What do I need for med at UNSW?

    I'd recommend getting a folder or filing system of some sort. (Sorry, I sound really boring and practical =P). Because everything's just handed out to you, without separate subjects, you might take a while to set up an organising system that works for you, but folders and those post-it flags are...

    unsw med timetable

    haha... I was jus gonna write the faculty isn't exactly known for its accuracy and I realise it's been said already... (ok fine I thought it was amusing). You'll get your timetables a week or so before uni starts. Chillax... The faculty practically holds your hand for the first eight...

    Textbooks for UNSW Med

    One other thing, I know it feels like getting the latest edition is really really important. But sometimes it doesn't make a huge difference. Obviously, try to avoid stuff from the 80s, but have a look at the publishing date. If the newest edition is published 2006 and the previous one is...

    Textbooks for UNSW Med

    Before I start, I'll just say here that textbooks are only useful if you actually plan on using them. Having said that, spoon3er is right and you'll find an anatomy, physiol, path and histo book especially useful. The ones on the official list are: - Moore & Dalley: Clinically Oriented...

    Anyone done these geneds?

    With the World Religions I'm pretty sure there is an exam-based assessment at the end. But judging by the number of med students who have done it I don't think it would have been too difficult... We're pretty lazy when it comes to doing these courses.

    Engl1007, Engl 1009

    Hey, thanks so much for that. Was wondering if you could please give me a couple of examples of the kind of texts you studied for the course? Cheers. =)

    Biom 1010

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had done BIOM1010 Engineering in Medicine and Biology previously? I'm considering taking it as an elective during Session 2 and would appreciate any thoughts you had about the course. Thanks.

    Engl1007, Engl 1009

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone has taken either of the courses: ENGL1007 - Canon of English Literature ENGL1009 - Literature of Revolution I'm considering taking them as elective subject during semester 2 and would appreciate any thoughts you had on them...

    law geneds

    I haven't done the Understanding Tax one but several of my friends have and I've heard it's dead easy. Part of the assessment is calling up the ATO and getting them to mail you brochures. And then you learn how to fill out a tax return =)

    ART TUTOR required

    Hey'all. I'm looking for someone interested in teaching a small art class for kids aged around preschool to around year 3. The place is near Carlingford Court. It'd be for an hour or two hours a week on Saturday afternoons. Probably somewhere between $15 to $20 per hour. If you're...

    What is unique about UNSW Medicine?

    The virgin gen ed (ie, the first one) tends to be the 'interesting' one. Then we realise what a chore gen eds are and what a blessing it would be to choose ones that take up minimal time and effort. It's up to you, really. If it's been your lifelong passion to learn Indonesian, but didn't...

    What is unique about UNSW Medicine?

    gen eds are irritating to fit in regardless of what subject. quite a few 2nd years are doing language gen eds, i don't know how... i guess they're juggling classes if there's a timetable clash. U can have a look at how gen eds are timetabled: go to myunsw->student profile->class search (down...

    What is unique about UNSW Medicine?

    i think we have a separate 12uoc of electives? apart from the 12uoc of gen ed. There was some discussion about this earlier, but I'm not really sure. most gen eds at unsw are 3uoc, which is about 2-3 hours per week. language gen eds are 6uoc, so they require a bit more work. alternatively...

    What is unique about UNSW Medicine?

    lol omg... that damn fire drill... and it was such a dodgy prac as well =P hmm... SBL: Basically helps to integrate different disciplines of medicine across a common theme. It demands a lot of self-directed learning, which I prefer, but it might not suit others especially if u like being...
