beneficial. students dont usually put them in, but my only memories of titles is my teachers saying "only a few on you put titles on your creatives." just make sure it isnt crap, ie "the story about a boy who climbed mount everest and learnt a valuable lesson" less than 3 words is...

from memory, the last time you can change your preferences is in 2010, so you have plenty of time :)

there are bridging courses which bring you up to speed for mathematics. its taken by students who are in a similar position to yourself, they didnt do the required amount of maths in high school and want to be prepared have a look at this exam...

if you can afford it, living on campus, or close by helps in many ways (socially, academically if you are disciplined) but many, many people take long journeys to get to unsw each day, myself included (about 1hr 10min). those train journeys can be useful though, eg help to get some last...

the first 2 industrial placements for engineers are at the end of first year, dec-feb, and at the end of second year, dec-feb too. so its not just a few weeks. they do allow you to go to attend foreign university during your studies if you wish

well there is comp eng or elec eng, which involve hardware, but they also involve math and then there is computer science which involves less math, virtually no hardware, but you dont want to do that one (there is software eng, which has about the same math as comp sci, but no hardware...

7 letters, pick 5, order important = 7P5 then remove identical cases due to there being 2 'A's so its 7P5/2! which is 1260

just to comment on this, yes, all universities dont assume that you have programming experience and they teach it to you from scratch. however, if you do learn to program a little bit, even if it just basics, then you will find the first few weeks easier, which can help you to settle into the...

forget about ATARs, just put down your preferences. if you want to go to usyd more than uts, then put usyd first. if you dont get accepted into usyd, for whatever reason, they will consider your uts option.

you can leave co-op at any time, you just have to return the scholarship money

go to the dean of engineering honour list page (or something, forget the name exactly), all those guys have over 75 WAM. then you can go and find some statistics about the general engineering cohort, eg, how many students, and you can get a rough estimate.

law/science? nah, no one does that. you'd be the first. I am of the opinion that picking a university course, with the intention of becoming qualified for a specific job when you graduate, is a foolish notion. you do what you are interested in and then you pick a job once you have more...

well i had a full timetable, 9 - 3:30, mon-fri, and then a 2 hour class for eng ext 2 on monday afternoon, from 3:30-5:30. it wasnt that bad, very possible, if i did it again i would do a few things differently though

what he means is that if you do computer science, then you will be programming throughout the degree if you do information systems/ business tech then you will only do programming in 1st year (and it might only be light programming too) because, from what I understand, those kind of degrees...

yea, if there arent many people that apply for a course, ie a lot of vacancies, then they will accept lower ATARs. also keep in mind that ATAR =/= difficulty of a uni degree

I would say the the "wrong way" thing is mainly people who learnt how to program years ago and are stuck in their ways, and therefore are finding it hard to adapt. if you learn to program a few months before you are taught it by a uni, it shouldnt be too hard to change and modify what you...

you are worried that your ancient mark will drag down your ATAR. but by the sounds of it, you arent doing that well in chemistry. so right now, chemistry will drag down your ATAR, not ancient. ;) so you can (a) either bring your ancient up to a very high level, or (b) you can try to bring...

(i) In how many ways can this be done? each person has n choices, and there are n people, so yea n^n (ii) What is the probability that at least one door will not be chosen by any of the people? one door not unchosen = All cases - no doors unchosen = n^n - n! P(no doors unchosen) is...

Re: Out of curiousity.. you can but then everything would be off, you would be out of sync with the main cohort. you might be able to get on track in 2nd year if you take a few summer session courses, but then you have to come in during summer. keep in mind the gap between end of HSC (nov)...
