Actually, Science > Arts

The texts are, LIFE THE SCIENCE OF BIOLOGY 7E (PURVES) and BIOLOGY AUSTRALIAN VERSION 7E (CAMPBELL). BIOS1201 is targeted for those without any, or little biology knowledge. So, if you have done Biology in the HSC, you will find it fairly easy (similar material). As for the textbook...

Yes, the science faculty will ignore you. Not because they want to, but because that is the rule.. Commerce/Science is administered by FCE. Interestingly enough, I'm doing Comm/Sci and my student card says BSc. Yes, you can turn up to the science welcome. And yes, they will help with...

Okay. Looks likes its not an 'official' UNSW event. Chances are it is being organised by a UNSW club or society, the UNSW Union (also known as Source), Sports Association or something to that avail, but not the university itself. You see, the university wouldn't pull you aside on advisory day...

Interesting. How did the university get your mobile number? Did you tell them somewhere? The more this plays out, the more I am intrigued; instinct tells me somethings not right. If you get the email post it here and we can figure it out. Edit: what are the details of the lunch, or...

It sounds like a program specific event, not even faculty-wide (its way too expensive to do that). So perhaps it is for all students enrolled into Biomedical Engineering (as someone mentioned), since there wouldn't be an excessive amount of students in that program. It should be a good chance...

I doubt UNSW would invite ALL first year students- theres way too many. But perhaps you did very ver well in the HSC, and they'd like to give you a special welcome to UNSW. If you're unsure, call them back and ask about it - that should tell you.

You'll need to complete CHEM1831, in order to graduate. If in doubt contact the Faculty of Medicine.

If you think you will use it productively, then it may be an asset. If you are like some people I see, they watch movies in lectures, they you might (or might not) be better off without the laptop. As for finding a seat during exam periods, its very hard. Usually if you get there before...

I wouldn't bother trying, unless: 1) You are very creative, and can think of something 2) You want to overload a Mathematics course - the school of Mathematics is famous for letting people overload (although its against official policy) 3) You are in your final year. 4) You have a burning...

Okay here goes. FCE will not allow (and are very strict) students to overload. Exceptions are made for students in their final year who will need to overload to 'catch up'. Seraphim: technically, no if the combined degree is administered by the Commerce faculty eg. BCom/BSci. I know with...

Yes, some lectures are repeated. This means that a different stream, will pretty much have an identical lecture ie. same slides, lecturer, same content. So yes, you can skip lectures if you plan to go to a repeat lecture, althought I must note that not all lectures are repeats. In some cases...

Awesome, looks like you've selected your courses. I hope my post was helpful. I must admit that a lot of the material that the first-year students may be daunting and somewhat misleading, but there are people to help you through the process! =). Remember, consult the Handbook at...

Your 'reality' maybe different to everyone else. In theory, you are supposed to attend to every class on your timetable, as MedNez pointed out. In reality, most people will end up skipping classes - but that is entirely up to the student. In a lot of cases, they skip the lectures because...

Okay the definition of permitted clash is as follows: 1) You have obtained special permission to enrol into courses that appear to be clashing. Usually this enrolment is through the schools, and done manually 2) The lecture streams may 'clash' on the timetable, but there is alternative...

Visit Enrolment@ library, or call them on 9385 1110. If your having problems with selecting subjects, don't ask them, they can't really help - see your program office.

I think you need to appreciate the fact that both commerce and science are very broad fields. Commerce is not just about money, and science is not just about test tubes and beakers. There is overlap between the two fields, and the Commerce/Science degree offers a student to study in both...

Hi magchem07, I thought I might help you. With the 3970 Bachelor of Science Program, you are required to complete: 1) Two (2) majors from Table A of the handbook OR 2) One major from Table A, one minor from Table B It looks like you've picked Anatomy for your major. As a result, you...

Basically in Higher subjects, you tend to go a little more in depth with various content, the teaching speed is a little faster, and you learn a little bit more. As for the whole 3unit, 4unit debate, it doesn't matter that much. Working consistently is much more important than scoring a...

What is this 7 yr rule? HECS will cover you for a certain number of credit points, anything over becomes full fee rate. So a 3yr Comm degree, you can complete 144UOC under HECS, if you accidently do one extra subject, you pay full fee for that. But rand0mr: I suggest you contact Student...
