You can definitely do two majors in B Sc, B Sc (Adv) or B Sc (Adv Maths) at USyd. The Talented Students Program and the variety of Special Studies Programs available to science students at USyd are definitely worth considering. Also, since you're interested in maths and health/biological...

Do you want to be forced into slave labour for at least 24 weeks per year or take (a fairly substantial sum of) free money with the freedom to do summer internships at your own discretion?

General info about Flexible Entry Scheme: Flexible entry - Domestic undergraduate - The University of Sydney Calculator for your eligibility: Flexible Entry Pathways Basically, Flexible Entry into B AVB is based on your performance in relevant HSC subjects: Chemistry, Mathematics (not General)...

You won't be able to complete another science major without overloading in B Psych as it requires you to do at least 30 credit points of psychology in 3rd year (the standard load is 48 credit points per year, and you need 24 credit points to major). There isn't an official "minor" in physics...

84.55 ATAR Combined Science Degrees - Future Undergraduate Students - The University of Sydney

Since you have an ATAR within 5 points of the published cut-off for BCST, you should be able to get in through the Flexible Entry Scheme. The application closes on 6 Jan 2010 so you've still got a little bit of time to put a portfolio together. Remember that after one year of study in BCST, you...

Actually, no one asked why I wanted to become a doctor in any of my interviews. Guess they're sick of hearing the same thing again and again? 5 questions sound really short... How long did it go for? When I did it, the writing task was 15 mins and the interview was 45 mins. Maybe they're trying...

Haha that was exactly what I planned. But I guess statistics is just another form of applied maths. How did the interview go? I'm guessing you've never heard of medical informatics? I've been involved in medical informatics projects with the Biomedical & Multimedia IT Research Group and the...

You are most welcome. :) So why are you going to study Science (Adv)/MBBS? Have you thought about which areas of science you want to study? As much as I'd like to help you, I can't really answer those questions in detail. But as I said, it's very similar to the UNSW interview (at least when I...

Re: uai of 96 and distinction average enough for usyd pharm --> usyd comb law transfe From my experience working on the USyd Helpline, Sydney Law School's official minimum requirement is ATAR 96 and D average in your first year. But there may be a bit of fluctuation from year to year depending...

Congrats guys! Good luck with the interview. Feel free to ask if you have any questions about combined med. :) @ Jetblack: Don't rule yourself out just yet - it's only an estimate, after all. But if the unfortunate happens, what's your plan with B Sc (Adv)?

So are you heading in for an interview tomorrow or Friday? Good luck! :) The interview is fairly similar to the UNSW one. But in addition to the standard questions about your personality, qualities, values, family & friends, motivations to study medicine, expect to be asked to explain why you...

USyd's Grad Dip in Psychology is equivalent to a major in psychology. According to Graduate Diploma in Psychology (GDP), applicants must not previously have completed a major in Psychology. Maybe the situation is different in some other universities?

To practice psychology, you need to be registered with the Psychologists' Registration Board. This requires you to complete an approved 4-year psychology degree (e.g. B Psych or B Sc with Honours in psych) and then either complete a postgrad qualification or do two years of supervised placement...

B Sc (Adv) majoring in chemistry and B Eng (Chemical) are very different degrees. There is very little overlap between the two - it's roughly 50% in first year, 25% in second year and none from there on. B Eng (Chemical) strongly focuses on the applications of chemistry in industrial...

I'm going to be tutoring again in 2010. Watch out kiddies! *cracks knuckles* ;)

If there are multiple streams of lectures (as there typically are for normal level subjects due to the enormous number of enrolments), then you can go to ANY of them regardless of what you're timetabled for. So even if you're timetabled for 8am MATH1001, you can still go to the 11am lecture if...

I didn't buy or use any of the books in the "recommended texts" list, if that's what you mean. I did make good use of the printed lecture notes from Kopystop though - I read everything, made my own notes based on the printed notes as well as the lectures, and I did all the tutorial exercise...

I did INFO1903 last year and I'm doing INFO2820 this semester. I'm actually going to be a mentor in at least one of the INFO1903 labs this semester. The lecturers do an extremely good job in preparing detailed lecture notes so you can probably afford to miss the Monday lecture. The only thing...
