    Politically correct society

    Oh please, everyone knows the ''freedom of speech'' line is used by people who WISH they were opressed. The type of people who think females, homosexuals, and non-whites get increased oppurtunities. How about you don't say those opinions just out of respect? I don't expect the world to conform...

    Politically correct society

    No, Australia is not a politically correct society, we are the far opposite. For every person that says ''that's offensive'' there are about twenty saying ''stop being offended'' People who go out of their way to not offend anyone tend to be heavily labelled, yet those who make racist/ sexist/...

    What's Anthropology like?

    Most uni sites are kind of vague, and I really find it interesting, so I was wondering if someone is or has done some at a tertiary level tell me a bit about it, the classes, topics, fieldwork, etc. I was thinking more along sociology originally, but my interest in that is kind of shrinking. All...

    Bachelor Of Visual Arts at Usyd?

    I'm really interested in Bachelor of Visual Arts at Usyd however I didn't do either D&T or Visual Arts in yr 11 or 12 (I'm in yr 12 currently) and that was a massive mistake. (: I thought I would do what I was planning to do at MQ (enrol in a Bachelor of Arts) at usyd and transfer to Visual...

    How much do Macquarie Uni's ATAR drop by?

    Thanks for the advice about media. My original plan was that if I didn't make it into Arts- Media, I'd just do a major in German Studies and Philosphy, and then find a way to add in Media. But perhaps I'll just do media, communications, etc as well as phil and german, and then up the level on...

    Who else is feeling uncertain about the HSC?

    I'm feeling uncertain to. I require an Atar of 87 but I'm completely paranoid about scaling, my cohort, subjects, weighing, etc. During the holidays, on average I did 1-2 hours every day. However, teachers were saying that we should dedicate days where we do nothing but study, which I never did...

    Do you plan to see The Dark Knight Rises this week?

    If so, what day? If not, why? The reason why I'm asking this because I know its highly anticipated and all, but I'm curious to see whether or not this years yr 12 would be willing to give up 3 hours of study (I know trials are very soon) to see the film. I plan to see it on Thursday night, but...

    Amelie

    yeah, I've seen Amelie and I find it to be quite overrated and the main character really gets on my nerves, especially her childish behaviour. Jeremy Hailman, a movie critic, wrote an accurate review of it. I'm not a big fan of French cinema, and I honestly think that Delicatessen, City Of Lost...

    How much do Macquarie Uni's ATAR drop by?

    thanks powlmao for your answer. I think school leavers see whether or not we get offers in January. Doubt I can get 85.40, but hopefully mq is pretty flexible so I can transfer or expand my studies. Hopefully by having Arts- Media/ Bachelor of Arts majoring in Philosphy/ German Studies as my...

    How much do Macquarie Uni's ATAR drop by?

    I'm sitting my HSC next year, and the course I'd like to get into requires an ATAR of 85.40 (Arts- Media) and I really don't think I'd get it. So how much do the cut-offs plummet by on the final offers? Have you heard of any instances where the ATARs drop at MQ? If so, what courses and by how...
