If you haven't done three unit it means you will have work a bit harder than everyone else when you get to uni.

because engineering has pretty hard maths, so if youre not equipped in doing hard maths in high school, chances are you'll struggle, which is why watatank is right in saying if you wanna do well, you have to work harder than usual.

english extension usually scales up, so do well and youll be fine
for maths, just do your questions and past papers...im sure the others would have given the same advice

In terms of courses:

1. CSU - Bachelor of Arts - Graphic Design / Bachelor of Arts - Multimedia
2. University of the Sunshine Coast - Bachelor of Arts - Graphic Design / Bachelor of Arts - Multimedia
3. Newcastle Uni - Visual Communication

In terms of location:
- Newcastle - 25min away
- CSU - 6hrs 39min
- Sunshine Coast - 2hrs away from my aunt and uncles place. (12hrs away from me)

i would like to go to CSU however i don't wanna have to move away - i don't feel ready to be independent either... definitely not that far away anyway. (7hrs)

Well I have a dilemma in what I want to do...
I used to want to do Bachelor of Health Science, Masters in Rehabilitation Councelling at USyd but people are telling me that being a Rehab Councellor is to 'touchy feely'.
Any thoughts?

Well if touchy feely is what youre into (whatever that means) then go for it! It's YOUR future, not theirs.

lol sorry, I just figure you guys know the whole story.
Well I went to a careers advisor and she worked out that this course would be best for me, but when I loked into it the job is like actually counceling people, where I thought that it was more like finding an appropriate job for someone after they had been in an accident, kinda like a careers advisor but for people who are out of work because of an injury.
I just wanna know if anyone is doing that course or knows someone that is a Rehabilitation Councellor and knows what the job/course is really about.
Do you have to psychologically help the person or is it just finding them a proper career?

I have my heart set on wollongong uni.... :)

Simply due to convenience, 15 minutes from home, and the added bonus of 3 extra uai points. I have it all figured out! EAS will probably gte me 2 points. I want to do commerce. I need a uai of 80, 77 with 3 extra points, 75 with EAS points. Foolproof, unless I do really shit, of course! And it has a good reputation, which comes in handy.

I really want to go to Wollongong, but that's just so I can move out of home. Really the wrong way to make up my mind about what course I want to do.
