    Is the work / assessments harder at a top university?

    It's all about dat curve especially in law. It's easier to get higher marks at the lower end uni's. I have heard from a friend who did econ at mac and said UNSW 1st year econ stuff is 2nd year mac econ... so there's that.

    depends on the projects involved. if its a chinese developer there's gonna have a higher % of overseas buyer. locally based developers will have a lower percent, maybe 10-20% of new projects.

    Unfair financial treatment by my parents?? Means test failure.
