What happens if say, you have a lecture which goes from 9-10 and then another that starts right on 10? Is this the equivalent of a timetable clash, or are you just expected to run from one lecture to the next? If so, don't lecturers get really pissy if you arrive late? If the first lecture...

Oh God. Shiiiiiiittt.

I know it probably wasn't called the UAI back then, possibly the TER and maybe something else before that - but I was wondering how the UAI (or equivalent) cutoffs have changed over the years. Obviously there would have been fewer people going to university back in the 70s and 80s so by basic...

I was just wondering how much we are expected to know about recent events and accompanying statistics to perform well in the HSC Economics exam. For example, whilst it seems pretty obvious that we need to know current figures for inflation, unemployment, external stability etc. does this...

I heard that the HSC Advice Line will be scrapped this year. Any truth in this?

I was just wondering how people thought the HSC rated compared to other similar programs around the world and elsewhere in Australia, such as the International Baccalaureate, SAT, A-Levels, VCE and the like. Looking at IB Chemistry syllabus and SAT vocabulary lists (as compared to 'Band Six'...

I just have a few questions about the BA (International Studies)/LLB program at UTS and was hoping that some current, or past UTS students might be able to give me a hand in providing some answers. International Studies First of all, I was wondering how the intensity and depth of language...

I just got my red P's and I'm really curious about when/if at all other P platers drive after parties where they've been drinking (late the morning after obviously) and if this is too risky. I picked up that "Zero" RTA brochure about limits for P platers and it's poster girl and boy both didn't...

Let's talk about exam ba-by, let's talk about jap-an-ese, let's talk about all the kanji and the vocab that could be. Anyway, just was wondering how everyone is going preparing for the Continuers exam, and what kind of study you have/haven't been doing. Looking at the 2006 Past Paper and it...

Is this true? I keep seeing people's replies to posts saying completely different things: a) if you are ranked first internally, recieve the highest external mark - no matter what the performance of the rest of your class, you will not be adversely affected. b) if you are ranked first...

Or better yet, what would you do in this situation. Sat my Prelim Chem paper today, and it was the Independent one I think. Everyone in the class thought it was pretty tough, then one girl goes "as if it was", "my tutor and I did like a really similar paper" - take a look at the one she did...

Just had a few questions, and I tried to find the answers in other threads in this forum...but there's so many - and the whole UAI calculation thing seems to fly over my head, and I hear different things from different people, so here are my questions: 1) In a class of three students, if two...

Maybe this should be in another forum...but I'm sure some Jap veterans here can answer this: The CSU HSC website says that the speaking exam is work 20 marks. That means that the exam is worth 80 marks (na duh), going by this if you got say 85% in your speaking (17) wouldn't you have to get 80+...

This is probably going to be a two or three post thread, but still...I really need to know. I've looked through the vocab and grammar lists for Continuers, and can't find reference to keigo anywhere. A Google search brings up some marking things from past beginners papers, but no reference to...

Are you expected to know every word prescribed in the Stage 6 Japanese Vocab list for the HSC exam? Did you guys know all of them before the exam, if you did/didn't, how did you go? Exam/Speaking tips in general...? Help. Stressmegastress.

I'm an accelerated kid for Japanese Continuers and I am majorly stressing about my mid-course exam on Wednesday which is worth 30% of my total school assessment mark. There are four people in my class and all the posts I've read insist it's "all about rank" and not really about mark. I can...

Okay, our jap teacher (who is Japanese..and seems pretty new to the syllabus) gave us some 'demo' questions for our mid-course exam in a week, which is 30% of our assessment mark....he was saying stuff like: "Do you believe that whaling is right or wrong...why?" Isn't that extension?! Like...

Situation: Accelerated Jap last year, and so this year I'll be sitting the HSC. I'm starting to really panic, not only about where my class is - but where I am in relation to where I'm 'supposed to be' in terms of what grammar/vocab I should know compared to the rest of the state if I'm aiming...

Do you think that studying law is kind of pointless considering how overly populated the 'law' career sector is? Are there simply too many lawyers and wannabe-lawyers for the demand of the Australian public? I mean - sure we need lawyers, but do we already have too many?

Just wondering if this combined degree is offered: BA (Adv) (Hons)/BSc (Adv) Can you do an advanced degree in both, or do you have to sway toward one?
