In such cases, consider everything you've learnt about both courses at both unis carefully. Then, think about it and then think, what is your gut feeling. Go with that.

Really? Which poll? It seems a bit weird because how many universities does one typically go to? Two, three maybe in one lifetime. How would they have been to enough universities to know which is the best?

Absolutely. I use an Upward diary--spiral bound, executive style. They make good student diaries too, but I loathe the font used in those.

Have you been waiting all this time for a diary that you may or may not get free? How have you survived so far without a diary?

For me, first impressions aren't about what you say or how you say things, but how you come off. Look people in the eyes and show that you are sure of yourself.

Ah good catch. Sorry, I've just been reading so much about university bureacracy and that word keeps popping up. @OP, yes, you may apply again and theoretically your reasons for applying are the same. However, all scholarship applicants are ranked in order of their need and perhaps next time...

From which university? The equity scholarship from USYD, known as the access scholarship, explicitly states that it cannot be deferred.

Like katie said, it's Bathurst. As they say, you get more opportunities as a journalist by opening yourself to working outside the city. Studying in Bathurst will prepare you for that.

This is the list of crosslisted units in the Faculty of Arts for 2009. However, many of them aren't listed in the handbook, such as ICLS2001, ICLS2002, etc. I was really looking forward to doing ICLS next year so that they would count towards my English major. But these units aren't listed and...

I deliberated about this for a long time after I got my UAI. Eventually, I chose USYD's BA (Media and Communications), which I posted about here. To copy and paste: Why BA (Media and Communications) at USYD? A common question asked by students wishing to pursue journalism (especially here...

It's just an example.

I've been checking out the uni email function and have just set up email forwarding to gmail and the reply-as email address. Now, I'm trying to set up the email alias but sending an email to the alias bounces. Is there a particular format that you have to use, such as f.surname@usyd.edu.au or...

xxstef, I'm definitely looking forward to it! My concern now is how to cope with learning two languages simultaneously. My high school French teacher said that it shouldn't be a problem since I'm learning French at an advanced level and German at a beginner's level. How are you coping with...

I tried calling the language department today and it wasn't available. On the enrolment day, I spoke to some American lecturers who taught Yiddish...can't say they were very helpful in giving advice. Anyway, I'm perserving with the jnr units of French because the snr units deal with French...

@media boy, your first post confused me a little. I'm doing ENGL1025 and ENGL1002. Since the first unit is compulsory, is there any possibility that it might not count as partof the 12 junior units to begin ENGL senior units? And, annoyingly, the link to the handbook updates is gone.

Miss Winey, thanks, those are some great points! Well, I'm glad I joined as I'm definitely joining a few clubs/societies. (As for the gift bags, I wouldn't have minded too much if they weren't giving it out, except that I'm sure it comes out of the fee.) Anyway, what other clubs have you...

I'm doing a unit of introductory German in Semester Two. I have also picked Junior French Advanced. While doing French in high school has equipped me with the skills to learn a new language, I wonder what it's really like at uni level. Of course, you have to put in a lot of work to do well, but...

Ah thank you! l love free gifts any way I get them.

The Access website says that if you renew or sign up for your Access card, you'll get a gift bag. Does this apply online only? I signed up at the university and didn't receive it. Not to be picky, but I did pay $99 so that I can get these benefits. I realise that it does say while stocks last...

Wait...isn't film studies a senior subject?: 7. Undergraduate units of study descriptions - Arts handbook - The University of Sydney I think you'll have to study ENGL1025 (Fiction, Film and Power) as a prerequisite for Film Studies. I'm hoping to do Film Studies or American Studies later, so...
