    Prospective UOW Students

    I go to uni at the moment in a place where we count the syringes on the way to the station after uni. Gross, hey. Hence why I want to move to somewhere I can sleep next to a duck pond unmolested (literally!). You're so lucky to be there!!

    Are commerce/business degrees replacing arts degrees?

    I'm going to throw my two cents in. As an Arts students, I can say about half my friends know exactly what position they want to hold a few years after graduation, and about a quarter of those left over know what field they want to work in but are unsure as to what position they aspire to...

    Will u pay?

    If I'm still at uni, I will pay VSU. I use some of their services, and because I know a lot of people who use them more than me, I feel it's important to keep those supports in place (makes my job as a reslifer easier too!). Even if the VUSU reps at uni are only there to push their own agenda.

    Agrippina the younger marriage with claudius

    The only other thing that I am having trouble finding is evidence of Agrippina's influence on the rule of Nero and Claudius as emperors. I have plenty of evidence that she had an influence, yet no evidence of what this influence was!!!

    do you have any advice to help a new uni student to get good grades?

    I found because I was doing subjects I enjoyed and knew I was good at, it was easier to stay motivated. A lot of my friends are doing courses they don't enjoy and they simply don't want to attend tutes/lectures or do the work. Motivation is the key! Burnout is very common.

    is it 2 late

    I was getting 50-60 in my assessments last year until the half yearly exams, and by blitzing the trials and the HSC I got nearly 90. So it's possible to do okay.

    Uni marks - unfair?

    Don't know if it's comparable... but Victoria University is on the same footing as ANU. 80 for an HD.

    Lowest UAI I've ever seen!

    Apparently the likelihood of finding work while at uni in Tassie is pretty low, though. VUT has pretty low ENTERs.

    moving out

    Melbournian how about you don't mouth off about what you have obviously only seen a small part of, and we leave this board for people to talk about what it was designed for - discussion on leaving home.
