    Charging laptops

    Hi UNSW. What chances, if any, would I get to charge a laptop at the uni? I have a fair few 2-3 hour breaks so I could just go to the library (I would be able to charge it there, right?) but I'm also curious if some tutorial or lecture rooms have power points. I'm trying to decide whether I...

    Is it possible to do a Diploma and Bachelor's degree at the same time?

    I'm sure I've read the answer to this somewhere else and I tried a search on here and various other places yet I couldn't find the answer. I'm thinking of doing a diploma at the same time as doing engineering as I would really like to learn a language or two on the side. So my two questions are...

    General education electives

    Hi everyone. I'm going to be an Aerospace or Mechatronics student this year (still haven't quite chosen but I'm leaning toward Mechatronics). I've been looking at the plan for a while now and have been excited about these general electives because I would like to learn a language (probably...

    Unsw id

    Hey everyone... having accepted my offer last night, I forgot to write down my UNSW ID. Is there any way to find it out automatically? You'd think it was possible to have it e-mailed to my personal e-mail address. Has anyone run into the same situation, and if so, do you have any ideas on how I...

    ATAR estimates

    Hey, I thought it'd be a good idea to get some 15 year olds to pull figures out of their asses for my ATAR, so here I am! Ranks: Advanced English: 6/44 Mathematics Ext.2: 1/10 Mathematics Ext.1: 2/20 Chemistry: 1/37 Physics: 2/35 School rank is ~250. Our highest achiever tends to get ~98 to...

    BE/BA: How does it work?

    Hello there, everyone from USyd. I'm a Year 12 student considering studying with you all next year. It's pretty difficult to find out some certain information about USyd without a student login, so I thought I'd ask it here and see if anyone could help me out. I'm hoping to to engineering along...

    Conics

    Having come within two weeks of my trials and realised that I still haven't satisfactorily learned Conics (fell behind during the year so skipped ahead so I could keep up to date with class work), I now realise that if I was in the exam right now I would not be able to derive many of the...

    Massachusetts Institute of Technology

    If I was interested in studying an area in Physics or perhaps Nanotechnology, would MIT be the place to be? Also, does anyone know how hard it would be to get into it? From what I've seen in addition to extracurricular activities, am I right in assuming that I would only need around a 90%...

    Recommended books to read?

    I've come to realize that though I've read many books in my childhood, most of them have just been book such as Harry Potter, Goosebumps, Andy Griffith books, and so on - great books for entertainment value, but not exactly a wide range. Can anyone recommend famous books with good educational...

    Woo I have 5 subjects while most of you suckers have 6 :)

    Not many people do this but I took accelerated IPT last year only to find out that I hated it and it was boring (though I ranked 1 with 70% averages) so I dropped it at the start of this year. This means that I have already done 2 of the required units. Therefore I can focus on the subjects I'll...
