    What UAI do I need to get into Medicine?

    Wow you can actually find out how you went in the interview. I'm v. tempted but it'd be pretty freaky if it was bad. What was the motivation for you guys to call up? I think I might just keep floating in my bubble and telling myself that I went great...lol. I got in with a UMAT of 187.

    UNSW med timetable

    Yeah, you should view per month/per week, it sets them out pretty clearly by day. If you click on "My Groups" it'll show you what groups you're allocated to, they're pretty much like classes. So the clashing classes you see on the pdf timetable will be those different classes doing different...

    How manyt units did/do you do, and what UAI did/u aim to get?

    What he said :). I did 12 units. Oh, and by the way, seriously, it's bad enough we're spending our youth slaving over schoolwork, at least do subjects you like!

    Related material for Coleridge?

    If you can't think of anything exact to match the themes, maybe broaden the scope of your key words. When you talk about nature, is it physical nature, or could it also be human nature? For example, Coleridge's LTB could both be about the beauty of nature, as well as human nature in his...

    Moulin Rouge

    Hmmm just a random thought about relating MR to Coleridge. Perhaps you could think about how poems like Kubla Khan have supernatural elements, elements that are exaggerations/extensions of reality "caverns measureless to man." Similary, in Moulin Rouge, many of the characters are in v. high...

    MDR!!! FINI LE FRANCAIS. Un peu triste quand même, je pense que...après un bout de temps, je regarderai Marius et Jeannette pour vraiment savourer ce film pour ce qu'il est, et sans aucune intention de l'analyser.

    French extension

    Oh darn, I was getting all excited about being the first one to post...and you shattered my dream. Ah I am so grieved. Aaaanyway. Yeah, it was an interesting exam. Interesting how the last two questions in part 1 relating to the text for study weren't really "refer to this text...and the...

    Italian

    Hmmm I'm assuming that you did continuers hehe. I did beginner's and they took our listening away from us after five minutes at the end, which was slightly annoying, but I got things finished. There was quite a lot to write, less of the multiple choice and diagram/fill in gaps questions, but eh...

    olmc got 20 min extra for english.. unfair!!

    Meh, we had extremely loud birds incessantly chirping during the entire exam...inside the hall...gave me a ringing headache. We didn't get extra time. Most of us vowed to become bird hunters though.

    good textbooks????

    Mahahahahaha, I AGREEEEEEEEE. I miss Anwar Habib. Oh such a loss to see those dear characters go, and their little scenarios. They do pop up maybe once or twice, but not nearly as often to be fun :(.

    The Official French Continuers & Extension Speaking Exams 2005 Thread - POST IN HERE!

    The "u" in rugby is pronounced "oo," more toward the front of the mouth than in the back of the throat. As for a more appropriate expression...well it would depend on what context you want to say it in I suppose. Hmm I'm not very good at this am I? ;) All I can say is "en fait" is a pretty...

    Parlons-nous le francais ici!

    Ben, je ne suis pas experte en ce qui concerne les explications :D. Mais je vais essayer quand même. Je pense que l'expression "to be lonely" veut exprimer un sentiment, une emotion autrement dit "ressentir la solitude/être solitaire" alors que "to be alone" est une simple description d'état...

    The Official French Continuers & Extension Speaking Exams 2005 Thread - POST IN HERE!

    Mdr, totally agree with what you said there. I thought I would have been rather confident for the Continuers exam, but in those ten minutes of waiting I was reduced to hugging my notes for comfort haha. Oh, and you weren't at Ravenswood were you? Because I remember asking the person before me...

    Merci pour tes conseils, Chepas, et bien sur, je rigolais dans mon dernier message! Et bien, il faut dire que je pense avoir échoué mon examen de Français extension :(. Qu'est-ce que je peux dire...il n'y a pas d'explication. Peut-être étais-je trop stressée, mais je pensais que j'avais encore...

    Extension French (Info answering the question "Should I do it?")

    Eeep, ok, ok, I know I shouldn't be stressing right now, but I am actually doing so, quite badly really. To the point where I'm actually shaking...and why??? Extension Trial is tomorrow afternoon. Suffice to say that I am not too good at handling orals they make me stress out so much. I know...
