Go to as many lectures as possible on many a subject(within reason) as possible to get a feel for what you like before the cut off for enrolment variation. Some subjects that the brochures proclaimed as musts can turn out deadly uninteresting. Any film or drama unit will be full of...

They never get past telling me how attractive I am to delve into the particular quality, or lack thereof, that you speak of.

Once ordained, you score your own house(rectory), get a ready supply of uniforms, and only work on Sundays.

Why is there no degree in Cosmotology? I wanna do make-up for the stars, or at least do an air brush on "Extreme Makeovers". Since it doesn't exist, I'm going for a medical degree as I plan to open a clinic and live like they do in Nip/Tuck.

Distance mode exams are usually held in Sydney at some hall near Redfern station. Some units require you attend the uni for 3 or 4 days twice a year, depending on the unit.

I wanna do law cause I eventually want to have my own TV show like Judge Judy.

Well, the girls are discussing what they'll wear, whereas I'm sure the boys will discuss how they'll score-and I'm not talking academically. You're bound to have plentiful times with the chicks in psychology & arts faculty in general.

Imagine guys discusssing what they're wearing to Uni? Sort of who gives a sh......

You mean a pimp 'masters' That first semester was damn hard in more ways than one. Talk about expensive. History of anatomy textbook $79.98. Mink fur coat $5,000. Gold Chain necklace, $8,000. Diamond ring $11,000. Kucleduster (Sterling silver) $3,000. Practicals are the best part you won't...

A pornstar will take you 'places' law wont!

Sounds like your into the implied prestige of law by comparing it to nursing, which you more or less belittle in comparison. The nurses can get a job at the drop of a hat, can work anywhere, anytime of day or night they want, if they do agency work, they can change employers and not get stuck...

You could do their distance mode if the campu is too far away for you.

Which reminds of people who study Psychology? No it's not like you'll waltz in Ala Clarisse Starling and interview Dr Hannibal lecter. That together with all those other 'sexy' profiler type shows give people the wrong impression of what the work entails and how unhollywood it actually is.

God- who in their right mind would want to study law? Do you realise how boring & tedious the actual study of it is? That there is an over-supply. That the practise of law is not like an episode of Ally McBeal or "The Practise". Good luck!!

Hip Hop is one of USydney's most pestigious courses for language. UNSW excel in 'westie' english with self defence classes as a complement. Maquarie have expertise in Chinese Takeaway menu translation.

I told you not to take it seriously. As for a degree that doesn't have to be vocational to make it worthwhile......well......you'll see...you'll see....

Everybody is so timid and scared when it comes to the those first tutes. The getting to know you stuff is also an eye opener in the very first tutes. Going round the room, saying your name etc seems akin to teeth pulling for most. In a sociology unit, the tutor asked people to name their...

Don't take this too seriously. I'm sure people can come up with a multitude of useless degrees to warn prospective students about. I'll start off with the wonderful Bachelor of Communications in whatever. I wonder when they'll revamp these degrees to incorporate bar and...

USYD is, indeed, a rather shabby old place when you take a closer look. Some of the curriculum comes across as though it was written up in 1950 and hasn't changed much since then. Open day at USYD, at least when I attended, amounted to a bagging of other institutions and how holier than thou...

THose worried about going to the 'prestigious' university need not worry all that much. I've been to both USyd & UNSW, and while I favour UNSW, you are really just a cog on the production line: they ship you in, move you along without that much care and attention, and graduate you in three...
