    Prestige or the course?

    I go to UNSW and am quite happy with it. I have a few friends doing Advanced maths, and they have no complaints at all. Another thing to say, at UNSW, you can't major in 'mathematics' in Advanced Science, only 'mathematical physics'. You can do it in the straight science though. UNSW also has...

    general UNSW chit-chat

    That's for the comp science stream only. I guess each stream will release them at different stages.

    general UNSW chit-chat

    Engg wiki website? Do you mean Moodle? Link please. I can't find mine anywhere, Moodle has nothing, and that's the only thing I've ever used in the subject.

    UNSW Accommadation 2010 for 2nd Session

    In hindsight, choosing to live on campus was one of the best choices I made. Instantly you are really good friends with 80-250 people. Often they do the same degree as you, and hence help is readily available from fellow first yearers, or older people. The social life is pretty awesome as well...

    school ranks?

    If you are ranked first, your school rank and cohort do not affect you at all.

    Answers to Accommodation/Colleges questions at UNSW

    As far as I know, the goldstein buildings are protected through heritage - something to do with the bricks they used, and hence can't be destroyed.

    changes to Youth Allowance?

    Since the startup and relocation scholarships are being handed out on April 1st, but the raising of the parental income test threshold isn't being raised until july 1st, does this mean the scholarships won't be awarded to those who are newly elgible for Youth allowance under the changed rules?

    What you would LOVE UNSW to have

    There is a subway and Kfc about 5 minutes away in Randwick. And the smell in Burrows I have yet to notice yet either.

    Uni or High School?

    Uni is much better so far. Only con at this moment is the cost of it, although in the long run, that will be neglible.

    Don't you just rock up at the Roundhouse on Monday's? Not sure if you have to sign up though. Otherwise just go to the local pubs.

    Who's up for an o-week meetup?

    I am at campus 24/7, so if there is one, I will come, otherwise I will not.

    Accomodation Troubles!!

    Just inside the offices to Basser college, there are a few walls for people looking for/offering private accomodation. Last time I went in there, it seemed like there was a large amount offered. Since you live so far away, I'd reccomend ringing UNSW housing.

    How can i write faster in exams?

    This suprisingly works. Using a bulkier pen like a Parker works better though in my opinion. Also the more you do it, the quicker you become. I remember in the same amount of time, i completed 50% more pages in my last exam then first for the HSC.

    Are marks relevant at all?

    If you can maintain the first ranking for the duration of the HSC, and do not get sick during the exams, then the marks aren't relevant at all. A ranking other then first is a completely different story. In your example, it would most probably matter, as the relative gaps between the ranks would...
