    Medical Science at Macquarie?

    I did 2nd year anatomy (all done at USYD) in 2nd semester last year and know a bunch of the people doing 3rd year this semester (still at USYD). They have been told that it's running in the new wet lab at Macq next semester and that there's already cadavers organized (sorry if you're easily...

    Medical Science at Macquarie?

    Clinical anatomy classes will be run in the new wet labs at the hospital. They currently run them at USYD because there was no facility at Maq...

    STAT170 or MATH123

    I did STAT170 last year. I'm an external, part-time student and had not done any maths subjects in a loooooong time. I got a solid CREDIT for STAT170. If I can do it, you can do it with those sort of math marks at school. As others have said STAT170 is statistics so will be useful if you...

    Why the hate on pharmacy?

    Go hang out in your local pharmacy one day and watch what the pharmacist does: - hardly any actual human interaction except with the pharmacy assistants - all the time spent on their feet I've had an opportunity to hang out in the oncology pharmacy at one of Sydney's major hospitals - that...

    Alternative medicine/medical science careers ***

    Clinical Research. I'm a Trial Coordinator at USYD and the people I work with all come from quite diverse backgrounds - MedSci, BSc, MPubMed etc. It's a great job if you prefer the admin side of research but still want to be hearing about the research side... I hope that makes sense. Entry...

    external units

    Yep, all subjects taken externally are worth the same amount of CPs as when you do it internally.

    external units

    Even for external units you should have had them turn up on Blackboard by now. Both my subjects are well and truly up and running with online discussions and everything. I'd really recommend phoning the externals dept or emailing the course lecturer now. regards Jennifer

    external units

    I would suggest calling the external office or emailing the course lecturer. Just make sure you email from your uni email address otherwise they probably won't answer. Good luck.

    How old will you be when you graduate from uni?

    I think you've all forgotten us "mature age" students that are out here dragging the average up... You can add 48 to your stats...

    enrolment (offer slip)

    It came in a normal sized envelope from UAC... Good luck with sorting it all out.

    You have to pay for internet

    lol, just lol, at referencing Wikipedia... No way I could get away with that for a science paper...

    Unimail issues

    Use New Sydney Mail. Input your EMAIL ADDRESS eg abag1010@uni.usyd.edu.au then use the password described by the others: US......... That should work.

    Did the new curriculum affect you?

    I "was" doing a BSc - Anatomy/Physiology, external, part-time. Just finished my 2nd year and it will take 6 years (twice as long as doing it full-time which is normal for part-time students). So, the powers that be obviously didn't think of us part-timers and the cut-off of 2012 to complete...

    Can someone please explain to me...?

    Someone in my family got offered BMedSci at USYD. Had an ATAR of 95.35 with 3 Band 6's and 2 very high Band 5's. I'm guessing that's what it took to get in this year? regards and good luck with whatever you decide to do...

    Full time student + Full time work

    CBMS234 and CHEM101(?). I know chem is pretty full-on so deliberately chose the other that has no final exam and is all online. WBU?

    Full time student + Full time work

    I've done exactly this this semester. Full time work, 3external science subjects. NOT doing it again! I have managed but am not sure how many subjects I will pass/not pass - it will be "close" I think, pass or fail. I will be happy to get 3 p's - after averaging D's in the semesters when I've...

    How do we get back our results now?

    Contact the person who is listed as the course convenor in the subject notes you should have gotten at the beginning - or email your tutor (make sure you email from your McQ email address or they won't receive/answer your email). regards and good luck

    Semester 2 & external units...

    I'm external. We start same time as everyone else and you should get info in the mail, but I find it's usually very close to starting time. Best to check if you've already got access to Blackboard and can see outlines on there. I don't have start date handy sorry (tucked in bed and it's too cold...

    Vent - just like a credit card ad, only different

    I know that the whole class was muddled - but it took extra time to sort mine out because of the surname issue... Can't wait for the end of semester! Funny how you knew which subject :) regards
