I'm all for UWS then, lol.

But seriously, anyone here know about Open University, and if its any good? Any information on it will be much appreciated. Please don't post the link; I've been to their site. Was just wondering whether its worth putting on my preferences list.

1. MBBS- UNSW
2. MBBS- UWS
3. B. of Medicine- UNCLE
4. B. of Information Technology/B. of Commerce- USYD
5. B. of Commerce- UNSW
6. B. of Commerce- USYD

Fourth preference is what I really want to get into.

Does anyone know why the IT/Comm combined degree @ USYD is 94.8 but the IT degree @USYD is 95.6? I thought they take the higher of the two degrees in a combined degree as the UAI for the course.

awesome haha we might be at uni together
thumbs up.
lol sick brah.

That's provided i can get the 90, which is like 10% chance of happening, but since UWS give 5 extra points for us Western Sydney pplz, it mightn't be too much of a stretch.

pray 4 me plz.
