sam is fairly accurate, id say 99% of cases would fall within 2 points of what it gives you. but that ATAR does sound fairly low for marks of that level. if you changed senoir science with biology/chem/phys you should be at the 98-99 level. ill admit i dont know anything about senior science...

haha, ive got a similar quirk. bed must be done before i do any work. i think of it as the stepping stone to the harder stuff "ok, ive made my bed, looks pretty good. now its time to tackle some harder assignments"

Does that mean i would be doing some downgraded course since you said it is easier with the lighter hours which i assume means going to uni less than usual? what I mean is that the typical engineering subject is 5-7 hours or classes per week, which is fairly heavy. im not 100% sure but I...

havent read the thread, nor am I. but the right to vote IMO, isnt a right, its a privilege, and one that is given away far to easily to people that dont want it (many people), people that dont deserve it (criminals) and people that dont know what to do with it (16 y/o's). criminals...

well science is a bit lighter on contact hours so that will make the degree a little easier than a straight engineering one. hence the lower ATAR, also why science is on average lower. i suppose the answer will be based on your preference. if you are looking more at the science side of the...

you guys missed out. staying up all night doing your EE2 major work is one of the joys of the course.

is there a better football based game? I think not

you missed one at UNSW. the CSE stall had these cool pens where the back end is an LED

(5x-y)(x+2y) guess and check bit of reasoning. you know it will be (...x...y)(...x...y) and you know there is atleast 1 "-" in there and you know the xy term is negative, which indicates that the 5x will multiply a negative, so you get (5x...y)(x - ...y) so its down to a few...

AFAIK B Psych and B Science are identical except: -B science you have to get 65 (atleast a credit) to do honours while honours is included in the B Psych -B science you have to do science electives while B psych can do electives from any faculty so there is little difference. in the end...

yea, asians are super cool. so cool in fact that if coolness were a unit circle, then all of the uncool people would be at 0, cool people at pi, and the super cool asian people doing 4u would be at 2*pi

a major in psychology means 50% of the subjects that you do are psychology so you can do whatever you want with the rest. so you could do a major in math too i think. making it 50% psychology with 50% math. thats for a bach. of science. Bach. of psychology might be a little different...

i love how the "asian stereotype" is different depending on who you talk to ive heard a range of asian stereotypes, from med, commerce, engineering, law and science. pretty much every program except arts is stereotyped as "asian"

if you find yourself in this position, then yes, change career, cause if hate what you are doing each day, then you have picked the wrong occupation. for some people, making money makes them happy, so they choose careers based on that. but do you really think you have no passion for anything...

just lol @ you guys. if you didnt see any SW on open day then you have no chance, regardless of which university you end up going to. id say that more than half of the people that came wont even end up going to UNSW, which means they'll be at usyd/mq/uts next year. so if you didnt see any...

lol, good description of PBB. and actually there was another guy besides me that did 4U/4U

pffff part of doing well in maths ext 2 is performing basic logic checks on your answers. keeping that in mind, does this sound right to you? "70 is approx. equal to 90 for MX2"

yea Richard (from youtube) will be speaking and then?

can I just ask, what do you all plan to do at open day, considering your current educational status? I remember last years open day, wasnt much to do. I listened to Buckland speak twice.

-interest in the subject area helps -recency and primacy effects -there is meant to be some sort of evolution of methods, ie reading is worst, reading and making notes is a little better, and i think reading aloud (yea, weird eh?) is a little more effective. all the way up to the best methods...
