i'm not sure about other unis but melb uni certainly does combined degrees - for example you can do 'arts and science' or arts/science. with 'arts and science' you graduate with one degree rather than two, hecs is less and it doesn't add an extra year onto the course like a double degree would...

vale's coming back? awesome! i didn't go on fantasy island - the thought of being outside in the blazing hot sun, with all that booze and not being able to get back to college didn't really fill me with joy. which is probably why i'm not the biggest fan of OTB. i haven't heard any OTB news but...

ahhh... the memories. we really did have an awesome o-week at johns this year didn't we tim. if i only i could remember all of it... whoops. i've learnt my lesson now - gotta get as much partying in at the start of the year before the work load increases... i didn't get out nearly as much as i...

there are some dickheads at johns that make the rest of us embarrassed. but generally everyone's really approachable - which i'm sure you'd find at most of the colleges - and yes, as neo_o mentioned we try to support and encourage each other - whether it be in sport stuff and (with a little...

i moved from melbourne at the start of this year thinking the exact same thing. if you are going into college you have no need to worry about it at all - everyone's in exactly the same boat so you'll all be nervously chatting away and getting to know people. i'm not sure bout the other...

the unis don't know where you have placed them in your preference list... just that they're listed on there somewhere.

i'm pretty sure ANU have dropped their TERs to 75 to boost their numbers. it's very much likely to stay at 75.

yeah i've learnt my lesson now. party AS HARD AS POSSIBLE before the work kicks in :p the holidays are ok - just catching up with mates and working. spent hours at the beach yesterday. so relaxing! hope you're well!

hey tim, it's sarah 'that does german' as nicci so eloquently put it :p. i still reckon OTB days will be back, just with tighter rules or something. they're a johns institution

i agree tim - i wouldn't want to be anywhere else and i'm certainly coming back to johns next year. but then again, there are certain people/groups in the johns community that don't exactly try to improve our rep. eg the people that do bruce abuse, murphs speech at the end of the talent night...

i don't find it hard to learn a language at uni, in fact, the majority of my friends all study a language. french, italian, german, chinese etc. i found it easier to do well in german than my other subjects because you have one hour a day, four times a week - so you are consistantly...

i think i had about 16 contact hours this semester - but that's also coz i do a language which adds a bit more. i had pretty full days monday to wednesday, one class on thursday and no classes on friday. i found it really useful to have a 3 day weekend. each class, especially first year law...

it feels strange to be home in melbourne... but yay for holidays anyway!

Not that I'll be first year next year, but so long as i pass everything I'll be back continuing Arts/Law

I actually prefer going out in Canberra as opposed to going out in Melbourne these days. It's just a short walk to Civic where all the pubs/clubs are, it's not a great hike to go on a bar crawl if you want (or to move on elsewhere if you get bored at your college's bar - gargh, getting a tad...

The world's best universities, according to an annual study by The Times Higher Education Supplement: 1. Harvard - US 2. Cambridge - UK 3. Oxford - UK 4. Massachussets Institute of Technology - US 5. Yale - US 6. Stanford - US 7. California Institute of Technology - US 8. University of...

Any time :) I'm happy to help. Umm... i'm not too sure bout Deakin's rep when it comes to law. In my opinion, i'd put ANY course at anu above deakin, but that's probably my own bias towards anu coming in :) I guess it depends on how important the law degree is to you. Also, don't forget...

well, i wanna end up in a fairly similar field. not necessarily DFAT, maybe an NGO. i decided to do Arts/Law at ANU (i think it was 95 last year... not really looking to go any higher than that at the moment) although in the end it might be more impressive to finish with the IR degree rather...

hehe, you're doing the same essay as i did.

Icies is next to Meche
