    Finding my Superannuation

    Hi guys! I'm in my first year of uni this year and I would like to keep all my Superannuation from my work all in one account. I did some research on it and apparently I should have a super account from my first job that required a TFN. If that is the case, how and where will i find that...

    How much time should I put into studying for 3u?

    So as someone who just managed to pass 3u and obtain an e3, I spent a decent amount of time for 3u BUT it wasn't just repetitive practice with all topics. With 3u, you usually know what topics you're weak at and you do lots of exam style questions and even just simple ones from the textbook to...

    Actuarial MACQ 40k scholarship or UNSW?????HELP :(

    Everyone here has made a good point. So here is something new: If it does turn out that your UMAQ social life isn't what you expect, and that you're not making great or close friends and developing meaningful friendships or things like your friends from UNSW start telling you how great their...

    Studying a language

    Hi guys! Just wondering if it's possible to continue studying a language in uni even though it has no correlation with my course at all - just a side interest. Thanks! This is at USYD btw.

    Amount of Work/study

    Around 7 -8 hours a day, hoping for a 95-96. Honestly I just hit the library from 11am - 7pm (not all hours are productive but most are) and relax from dinner and afterwards. Careful not to burn out and take some breaks here and there !

    Stressed - haven't done much

    I graduated yesterday and it had only just hit me that there's barely anytime before HSC. How many past papers have you guys done or just anything in general? I've done barely anything and I have just refined my essays (haven't practiced with any questions) and it's starting to stress me...

    lol i'm being really petty but...

    In my opinion, the friends that are more closer to you seem to be the ones that get more jealous. This is a first hand experience and I guess if they're jealous, then you're on a good track (academically!) Congrats though :)

    Engineering for a shy guy?

    Communication is necessary for all courses and in life, there are so many suggestions here but my personal favourite is getting a part time job. Since I started working (retail/hospitality) I've had so many opportunities to talk with new people/colleagues and customers whenever I want - I highly...

    How to stop comparing my marks to others?

    There will always be people who excel with minimal study and effort! Everyone is different and what matters most is that you put in your best effort and you have no regrets. Also a social life is just as important as getting good results so don't neglect it and have some fun and balance...

    How to study for listening?

    Listening isn't my worse skill but apparently the best way is to learn the vocab really well so that you can translate real fast in your head. Otherwise my second advice is to write the word real fast on the candidates notes/on the side so you can use a dictionary and look it up later. But...
