    HELP! Uni entry!

    Not having the 'assumed knowledge' will not affect whether you get accepted at all. As for once you're there, i just had a quick look at your degree and it turns out you can do fundamental chem for your first year chem units. Fundamentals has no assumed knowledge for it so you'll be fine :) If...

    WAM requirements for transfer?

    Hi :) I'm currently studying B Science at Usyd but I am looking to transfer to BSci/BComm at the end of the year. The ATAR required is 94.15 and I got 90.1 so I was just wondering what WAM would be required to get into this degree. I know the entry is 50/50 ATAR/WAM, but how do they determine...

    Mid-year transfer cut-offs

    Hey :) I'm transferring from B Science at USyd to B Psychological Science at UNSW (hopefully). The cut-off was about 87.5 from memory and I had an ATAR of 90.1 so I should get in based on that, however I was wondering if mid-year cut-offs are generally higher than January rounds. Has anyone had...

    Likelihood of gaining second year entry to Medical Science?

    I missed the ATAR for Medical Science by 1.95, so I'm going to do a BScience at USyd instead. On the USyd website it says that you can transfer into Medical Science for second year, but does anyone know if they offer many places for this/ is it likely that I will be accepted? Thanks in advance! :)

    How to achieve a band 6 in modern history, prelim and hsc.

    Know your syllabus dot points inside and out, i cannot stress the importance of this enough! With the syllabus you'll also notice (I'm not sure if it's the same in prelim) that there are subheadings with dot points underneath them. If a question asks you for example, 'Evaluate the significance...

    DILEMMA! 10U vs 12U

    Yeah definitely don't jump into the decision, be certain that it's what you want to do. If you really enjoy them then it might benefit you to keep them. One of my teachers said that doing the extra subject gives you access to more knowledge than a person doing 10, which could benefit you later...

    DILEMMA! 10U vs 12U

    For me i found that the whole 'do 12 units as a back up' to have negative repercussions when i weighed it up for myself and looking at other friends who did 12. Firstly, there's the obvious thing of more time to focus on your other 10 units, not only in the afternoons, but also if you dropped...

    modern history predictions?

    There should be at least 1, but hey they could be cruel. I reaaaally doubt they're gonna be asking about social/cultural life seeing as that only came up a couple of years ago. I'm really hoping there's a collapse of the republic question! I'll probably be fine if there's not cos i've studied...

    Re: Paragraph Length - Should I split each concept over two paragraphs, two texts eac Tbh, i've been so unprepared for extension, idk why it's just the one subject i've never really bothered with (terrible i know), so i don't have a real grasp on how long it'll be. I don't think i'll be able...
