    Going over word limit in English?

    Depends on the teacher/school. Often there is a plus or minus 5-10% amount of words you can go under or over by.

    Dropping to standard, english and math.

    It will depend on the school, how they deal with people dropping, and how it impacts on rank calculation.

    Dropping to standard, english and math.

    Aligning for English Standard is a lot worse than for Advanced English. It is a similar difficulty so I would suggest that you at least stick with English Advanced.

    Help with choosing university

    Travel time should be a big consideration. It impacts your ability on studying (longer commutes can be very tiring!) and ability to participate in campus events. Not to mention, if your University has evening exams that finish around 9pm or so, you probably will not want a long commute home...

    $50K Psychology Scholarship at Macquarie vs Psychology at USYD

    Maybe accept Macquarie now and move USYD to your highest UAC preference. Next I’d suggest that you defer USYD offer so if you decide you don’t want to go to Macquarie anymore you can take up the USYD offer down the track. Note you may be required to pay back some of the scholarship but I’d...

    Big 4 Audit vs Insurance Company Grad Program

    Exit opportunities would be better for the first option,especially after you have completed your CA. Would you be doing your CA/other qualification for the second one? Do you have mates who work in the insurance firm who can give you the low down?

    MQ Chatter Thread

    Typically I check on here https://macquarieuniversity.statuspage.io/ or check Uni emails to see if it is scheduled maintenance. Occasionally they also post about outages on the Macquarie University Official facebook page.

    Fees for enrolling

    Are the HAST tests administered on different days? Because then you would definitely have to pay twice because the exams will have different questions.

    preparation

    * For Advanced Mathematics, Cambridge. Other then for Mathematics, I would not bother going ahead. I think that relaxing before you start Preliminary HSC is more important, not to mention the HSC course is fairly different from Preliminary course for most subjects.

    How does Uni work?
