Hey everyone I just tried going on to mysr to check up on an academic standing request that has gone through and i got something sying "500 Internal Server Error" Anyone else's not working and/or was there any notice saying servers would be down today? I probably haven't checked my...

Don't worry too much if it's late - I was at UWS for 5 years and each of those years my scholarship money was late.... one of the scholarships I received a semester late! for two years in a row. They're not the greatest with getting you the money early.... But it's worth emailing the...

Back in 2004/5 i remember i found out about scholarships a fortnight or so before the official results were released? But i recall that frinds found out at different times depending on what scholarship they were receiving. If you want to be sure, best bet is to call the uni and ask :) Good...

Definitely Parramatta. The travel will drive you nuts, especially if you have to go public transport at any stage. There is basically no difference in terms of facilities and educational experience at either campus. Many lecturers teach at both and the majority of subjects are offered at both...

No - that's not the worst case scenario. Worst case scenario is you get away with it at first, but they eventually find out and when they find out - they make you pay back the money you have already received because you were breaching the scholarship conditions. I mean, hypothetically, if you...

It depends on your course - make sure you're reading the correct parts of the Honours policy. Also - as far as whether it's worth doing - again that relies a lot on what course you're doing and what you want to use the degree for...?

Cant speak for others but for me personally it's cause I did summer school units so ha already done some of this semesters workload earlier

Thanks - not ure if mines different cause if I remembr right you're doing purely through collaw but I'm a uws hybrid lol it sucks doesn't it! My elective gpa is the high 6s but my cores is 5.935 I think - so close lol! If you're in the same position as me - I'm assuming you kept up the...

The complete history thing is annoying me too! Cause i need to print it out to attach to my College of Law forms in the next few days... i don't want to waste money buying a transcript... How'd you go results wise, as far as are you happy with them? especially since some of the exams were...

Its a matter of adding and then dividing - Add the 'worth' of each unit together - Pass = 4, Credit = 5, Distinction = 6, HD = 7. Then divide by the number of units. Eg - i did 3 units this semester and got 2 Ds and a C. So i would be (6 + 6 + 5)÷ 3 = 5.67 Does that make sense?

lol yeah i know it's not hard to work out, but it's just better when it's there cause it saves the effort :p The unit im not ecstatic with - it's a crap system of 'scaling' because it's all peer marked and the teacher reviews the marks if he doesn't agree. But the stupid thing is, a lot of it...

In my experience (although the course has changed since when i started in 2005) most for business were individual. Law is probably half half - and often when you do them as 'groups' there are quite individual components so whilst you work on it together, often you will present separate parts...

Keep in mind that UWS has several locations so there are hundreds of suburbs that are far more convenient for travel to UWS than sydney unis :)

Haha not quite! :) To get first class I need a D and a HD in cores this semester which isn't going to happen because I bombed exams But - provided that i pass everything - worst i can do is honours 2.2 :) I can get honours 2.1 if i get credits in the cores which is possible but not likely...
