    Is it true that...

    I really don't think this is a major issue if you make friends with the right people. I'm from a well-off family in Bellevue Hill (Eastern Suburbs) and I for one cannot WAIT to meet people who aren't just from the same background as me. That's one of the best things about going to such a big...

    Has anyone got an ATAR of 99.90/99.95 without doing Extension 2 maths??

    These questions are common...and the answer is always: you can get whatever atar with whatever combo of subjects. I didn't do any maths or science or anything for my HSC in 2011 and i got 99.85 (i know that's not 99.9/.95 but i feel i'm close enough to be able to properly give an opinion). I did...

    University 'Prestige' Rankings

    I know (i can recite that movie word for word) but the implication was there. Ah well we all get what we're all saying here. Point is that although lots of the points I made are trivial, they do amount to prestige which - whether warranted or not - USYD has.

    University 'Prestige' Rankings

    My sister is studying there now, lives at women's college, i go in and see her alot. All my grandparents and my parents went there. My grandpa was a senior researcher at sydney. I've been to open days, doing commerce law there this year. Rather than 'she doesn't even go here', some may call it bias.

    Post Your 2012 University Offers Here!

    Law at Sydney University! My ATAR got me comfortably in, but I was still a bit paranoid this arvo so it's nice to have an offer safe and secure :)

    University 'Prestige' Rankings

    I know lots of people like to be anti-USYD (because we're all sooo alternative these days!) but it's definitely Sydney University that would win this debate. 1. It's the oldest university in Australia, and historically has always been the top university in the country. Of course ANU is beating...

    UAC Equity/Access scholarships out yet?

    I think they got released day after ATARs, although if people reject then they give them to others. I got my scholarship (granted, it was a merit scholarship) on December 15th

    Scholarship query!

    It should cover both. I just got a scholarship to do commerce/law at USYD ($6000 a year) and it's been given to me by the business school (as they manage the first 3 years of the 5 year degree) but it covers my combined degree for its duration + an honours year. Each scholarship is slightly...

    Multiple choice answers (confirmed)

    yeah 15 has to be b. In Australia ratification means we have SIGNED and INCORPORATED INTO DOMESTIC LAW. That's why signing and ratifying are separate things. it can't be a (human rights are universal, inalienable etc. so it's not like ratifying a treat gives people human rights) can't...

    Multiple choice answers (confirmed)

    100% agree with these answers and your explanations made two STUPID mistakes though so 18/20. I didn't read that those two guys were of different ages so i said heard by judge and jury instead of different quotes (the young guy would obviously be in childrens court with a magistrate garrr!)...

    General Thoughts: Legal Studies

    +1. It can't be A, because human rights are universal, inherent, inalienable etc. etc. so no signing of treaty means they now have human rights. And then like you said, 'ratify' in Australia means we've SIGNED and INCORPORATED IT INTO DOMESTIC LAW --> that's why they say 'signed and...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    also i think 7 is B i.e. conspiracy AND robbery cos he committed both he might just be charged only with robbery, since that's what he ended up doing. But i think they wanted a mention of conspiracy, spesh since they went to the effort to write 'alex AND dale planned...' etc and this...

    Section II - Core: Crime and Human Rights

    THANK YOU SO MUCH i don't get how people think that crime question was hard!? i nearly screamed with happiness when i saw it it's all about individual rights and freedoms vs. needing to protect society i.e. ARREST AND INTERROGATION takes away right to private as do searches, but they're...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    it was "can enforce human rights legislation" it doesn't GIVE them human rights because those are universal and inherent in all people by definition. not given by laws. but if they ratify a treaty i.e. the rome statute, then they can enforce human rights e.g. people can be charged with genocide...

    General Thoughts: Music 2

    Bb major and a trill to the Bb above the A (luckily i knew this one for sure since i've played rhapsody in blue many times haha) all in all, pretty easy paper - especially the essay question. But yes that q3 score was such a joke. If they meant to write 'flute' for the top instrument, they...

    Anyone at their schools have any cheaters caught?

    I would never cheat (all essay subjects so there's no point, and i'm too chicken shit haha) but some girls write formulas etc. on their legs and then wear stockings and like, then when you cross your legs or pull the stocking tight over your thigh you can see it.
