I prefer the free ones the university gives you. I can just scribble on it and not care about it looking dirty. Plus it has the important dates (when to pay, exams) in the diary.

Hi, do you guys think speed-reading is necessary for law reading? I read like a bloody turtle. I understand in first year, we have 20-40pgs per lesson to read. I read a Foundations of Law book and each page took me 5 mins. I'm so freaking slow! Do you think it's worth learning speed-reading...

I applied for Darlington Houses before the december deadline and since then there has been no correspondence whatsoever. Look for suburbs close by like Glebe, Redfern (if you dare), etc...

Lol it's clearly obvious that he doesn't.

I think finding on-campus residential college accommodation might be impossible now. USyd Village and IH are already full now, as far as I know.

I guess they didn't let you in because you were significantly below the cutoff. Even though they have vacancies after the main round, they cannot let anyone who doesn't meet the minimum cutoff in. This might not be the case in UWS, where they do help people with ATARs below the cutoff by giving...

Oh nooooooo. I'm sorry to hear that. All the best for next year :)

Honestly, $20/GB is way too much especially for those living on-campus. I plan to use my 3 USB wireless internet anyway.

So if there's no flash, does that mean no Youtube or Adobe reader? Oh yes and it's probably not wise to flash it around when commuting to USyd.

Hmmmm, you have to understand these kind of students exist everywhere. I understand you dislike them, in fact, every hardworking student would. There might be more of them in UWS compared to USyd because of the leniency of bonus points. You can't change peoples' perceptions of UWS. And...

Hi there, I don't think you should lose all hope. It may be possible. My suggestion is to do as well as you possibly can in 2nd year science. They 'might' hold 2nd year with more weight than your first year. Anyway, based on personal experience, I think USyd is a very nice compassionate uni (in...

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that hun. Did you apply to interstate universities? Generally, it's easier at unis in Queensland, WA and ACT. Oh wouldnt calling the universities asking for a course qualify as an irregular offer? Good luck :)

I hope you're just trolling. But if you are not, please don't generalise and assume everyone in this forum are one of 'those kids'. People who come to this forum do have an interest/concerns about their studies compared to those who don't. I do like UWS and have always supported UWS. I think...

I'm pretty sure they will look at the first two years if they are from the same university. This applied to me. Usually they recommend a GPA above 6 but honestly, you should aim above 6 to increase your chances. You pay your total HECs debt only when you start working and earn an income...

To apply for credit, I submitted the online form on the subjects I did in my previous uni. They then sent an automated email requesting that I send the SIO the course outlines of the subjects I did and my academic transcript. The email also said that it would take 2 weeks for my credit exemption...

You can pay by Bpay. With Westpac online banking, you click the Bpay link and enter the code (from the UNSW invoice). Or you can pay in the post office, give them the invoice and pay by eftpos/credit card. Make sure your eftpos daily limit is set high enough ($3.6k ish)

I think you should leave for uni the day before. Dont miss orientation unless you have to.

It's usually 12 hours. But I study a lot after the contact time.

For USyd, I emailed the faculty a year ago and they recommended a distinction average with a UAI above 90 for a transfer to commerce alone. It really depends on your UAI, then you can use your UAI and GPA to calculate your NRSL. If you have a high UAI, a high credit average would generally...
