If i cant get into usyd for pharmacy, i will do a Bscience, then try and transfer over to pharmacy later on. I dont want to go to csu- its my last optionnchoy said:Lucky girl!
So what are you going to do if u cant get into Usyd? U definetely going to CSU?
it will be harder to maintain a distinction if u chose CSU for pharm because it is a more difficult degree compared to other science courses, thus limiting ur chances of obtaining the necessary marks.sle3pe3bumz said:Ah. Again, my question wasn't really answered. Sorry.
But I do understand that it is an extremely demanding course and all.
And I'd rather do Pharmacy @ CSU and try transfer from there than do like BScience and transfer internally. But while reading up on some stuff, it looks like that I might not even get into CSU 'cos the UAI cut-offs were so high a few years back.
Ah. Crap.![]()
Ah. Again, my question wasn't really answered. Sorry.Deltan said:A pharmacy degree isnt so easy at any uni, the requirement for usyd entry requires a distinction average.
Choose a course which u think u can maintain that mark, i would personally choose some science degree or medical science since you like science. =)
But weren't the cut offs really high when the course was just starting?sle3pe3bumz said:Ah. Again, my question wasn't really answered. Sorry.

Oh hey, I never saw that reply. Whoops.Deltan said:it will be harder to maintain a distinction if u chose CSU for pharm because it is a more difficult degree compared to other science courses, thus limiting ur chances of obtaining the necessary marks.
someone doing an arts degree who maintain a distinction will have an equal chance of transferring as you. So if u want to get into usyd at all cost, its probably wise to pick your course carefully.
i doubt that the cut-off for CSU will sky-rocket to high 90's so don't give up hope

nope it does not matter. whatever gpa u get at usyd=gpa at uws =gpa at unswnchoy said:The only problem I think is there will be quite a few ppl thinking of doing the same thing. It will certainly be very competitive. Also, I just wonder if USyd will give preference to applicants for internal transfer.
pharmacy isnt any more difficult than any other b.sci degree, heck is probably alot easier than engineering degreesDeltan said:If a student doesn't get a distinction average, should they really be comtemplating on a pharm degree in the first place?
I know getting a distinction isnt easy, but they would be putting themselves in a more difficult situation.
You be up against a competetive cohort in pharm and there is also of workload that is pretty difficult.
