I think someone mentioned they'd be released a couple weeks or so before O-Week.

GAH

They said the census date for Gen Eds is 3 Feb (TODAY) and the 'drop' button's disappeared. FUCKERS. >:/

Unless you're only allowed to do it before the date and not ON the date. That's so lame. :(

Anyone who wants to. I go mostly for the free pancakes at breakfast and free sausages at lunch.

I'm a stupid first year who effed up enrolment and missed all her deadlines. Doesn't know what's happening. So going to admissions office tomorrow to plead my case. Lulz.

I think I'm going to hang around uni for a bit lulz and make it my habitat. God, it's been so long since I've been...

I love our Cats. Hang out behind OMB and you'll get to see Kittens rolling around on the grass and stuff.

Hey, hope you don't mind answering, i know its not really appropriate putting it here, but need a quick answer:

Hi,
got 2 offers, really wanted ancient however didn't make it to USYD:angry:, so i got these 2 offers. The UWS has a major in history/politics/philosophy, while UNSW has a major in History itself, from which 4 units of Ancient can be picked (mainly Rome).

Questions:

1. If i want to be a secondary (high) school teacher in History, which of the 2 unis would be better
2. These are courses in Bachelor of arts. I was wondering how do students get enrolled in the diploma of education, apparently i found out that ba/bdiped and ba are 2 different courses, however bachelor of arts/education was not listed in the uac book. Any advice on what i should do. I tried contacting the unis, but no replies from emails that i have sent
3. Do i have to very good at English to do well in History (sorry, asking as i came here not long ago) Got 70% in Advanced English for my HSC:hammer:
4. I was wondering, what's the difference between undertaking ba/bdiped now, and graduating in 3 years and then taking a 1 year master of teaching course
5. If i graduate (god help me) and become a teacher:rolleyes:, will i be able to teach Ancient History, despite the fact that i would have only majored in "History" (mostly modern)
6. I keep seeing that most students need to take 2 majors for teaching. I don't get this. So, i have to be graduate in History and something else, or...
7. What is the first year teacher graduates pay, approximately (this may sound rude, but want to know)

That's it, thanks for all of your responses in advance, i appreciate every single one of them, if there is to be any:uhoh:,

politik said:
1. UNSW, no contest.
2. Go to the Arta faculty on campus, it's in front of the library.
3. You'll do fine.
4. Masters will cost alot, and might not be funded by HECS.
5. All depends on the school. Alot of teachers don't even know the subjects they teach - they just read the material on their own before the classes.
6. History/Education are majors in Arts.
7. www.google.com.au
4, is masters same as dip ed,
6, don't really get this one, thanks alot for the response, appreciate it.
