    What WAM would I need?

    Not sure for the first question, but DN average wouldn't hurt at all. I think you need to be pushing mid-DN to high-DN range for a really good chance, but yes DN is a minimum, I'd think.

    Need help regarding course structure of Psych Science

    Choose a complementary major, and pick from there. You may choose your major officially later on, but it's best to have an idea now so you can start doing the work for those right now, and not later on.

    Business and economic statistics or microeconomics??

    You can do both. Just depends on if you still have room in your degree to do them. Also I liked micro. If you like stats, take a proper stats course, methinks.

    UNSW Chit Chat Thread 2014

    It is. I like to think the Dean is married to someone named Elise and named it in tribute of her but... who knows, really. sup Well, I got 82 and 81 respectively for those HSC subjects. So on paper, I should've died a miserable death in first year, scraping passes. 1141 is harder...

    What's bad? What's not bad about 9am classes? No sleep-ins! I went to a party on a Thursday, got home at 1am, and had to be uni at 8:45 the next day. I got like five hours sleep <_< Before the census date, usually around Week 5 or so. And 4. There are some courses that are worth 3 units, but...

    Post Your 2014 Sem1 Timetable

    Some of these engineering timetables are horrendous. Also to the person doing SCIF1121, I can't remember which one you are - but be prepared for the most bludge-iest bludge bludge of a subject that ever bludged. ASB to Mathews is a trek, you'll have to walk up all the stairs. It's effectively...

    Dual Degree - First Year Subjects?

    The uni isn't going to stop you. If you stuff up in planning, the uni won't care - you're paying them money, so as far as they're concerned, you're just forking over more cash. Follow the recommendations. Some of the courses they say you should take in Sem 1 may not be offered in Sem 2, so if...

    Maths1141 vs maths1131

    There is are common questions for both MATH1131 and MATH1141 in the final exam, and this accommodates the scaling. Also the UNSW recommendation is... bleh. If you feel you are up to the task, and did MX2, there is no reason to take MATH1131.
