I can't see how that is bad. Some courses have tests or assessments due it tutorials, but in my experience its not that often, depends on your course though. Its a good way to jump into the week, an early tute. Bang, into study. I'm more of ease her way in person but I can see how the bang...

I think the pocket ones are about $25-30, the bigger ones are probably somewhere between $30 -40. When I think about it the design isn't really great for students. Its good for recording basic info like appointments but anything more and there just isn't enough room. You could probably do...

Most courses don't take into account work experience if you are coming straight out of year 12 - this could be course specific though. Try your hardest and do your work (obviously). Some universities offer bonus points for relevant subjects, check what they are and see if you have them...

University ones get points from me because they usually have cool little relevant parts for students - plus they are cheap/free. I don't like Filofax because they seem too expensive and too bulky, plus I just don't like the whole system - some people swear by them though. I use Moleskine...

Most of them you need to be able to use through the proxy of the university, they aren't free. One free one I was told about at uni was Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy . There are a fair few around I think, but I only really know about the Philosophy ones, as that is all I have had to...

Last year at a university we were at we had a "library lesson" on referencing. They basically encouraged us never to even look at wikipedia. Not even a glance. They even made a pamphlet on the evils of wikipedia. They encouraged us to instead use "online academic encyclopedias" or something...

In all honesty I was just going to ignore it. I don't even know if we have an electrician in town.

It kind of amuses me that you are saying this and probably haven't even started year 11. I am just starting second year so I probably don't know as well as others, but I find my "motivation" is replenished at the beginning of each semester and I get all excited and go to everything and take...

In my experience, when you have 3 or 4 essays due plus tests looming in the next week you don't give a damn about a fee you'll have to pay in 3 or 5 or even 10 years time. In first year you don't particularly care about graduation either, some people might, but I know when I am stressed out...

It doesn't have handwriting recognition? I haven't looked into the specs but was expecting that it definitely would. I think Apple have a fair way to go to make this a really usable machine. I kind of liked the sound of it but handwriting recognition would be a must for me, if I was getting...

I was under the impression that international students are not subject to domestic rounds, and I also thought their offers were given out earlier than domestic students. I would have thought that you would already have your offers if you are going to get any. Really though, you should...

You'll have the same chance but probably be a semester behind.

Hmmm I hate looking like I am lost, doing nothing or waiting for someone, so I always just sort of walk around looking like a have a purpose with music on. I cannot understand how people stand there and wait for people. I really wish it was a skill I had because I always end up walking away...

Post-it notes. They are the only thing for me that keep everything together. I am serious. A white board too. Its like a giant post-it note that you can erase.

At ANU you do it on enrollment day. You'll turn up, sign up for some courses, follow arrows on the ground and end up at a library. Here you'll complete your HECS form on the computer and receive your ID card. Its all quite easy once you're there. Remember to bring your Tax File Number.

As long as there are preferences above your UWS one then you will be considered for them. You can even complete your enrollment process and still be considered. It doesn't make a difference as long as there are courses in your higher preferences.

Its a pretty small campus, you might be the only one :) I'm Gabrielle Witt, I hope I meet you :)

I'm just starting a double after a year of a single degree and it doesn't look any harder, just longer. Even in the 5th year you are only really doing equivalent of third year courses. You don't do any more work at the time either, same workload as a single degree just goes for an extra two...

Yeah, I think its best doing it that way. Otherwise people who change their mind, or in later offer rounds, wouldn't have a chance to get good times. Hey, what's your name? In case I meet you?

How do you know when the practicals are? I can't see them on the timetable site? Do we sign up for tutorials and pracs in the first week of lectures?
