Hey! Yeah definitely no quizzes/tests in the socio-legal lectures, although this was in 2013, they might have changed it this year but I seriously doubt it.

Hi, if you originally wanted to do B Commerce (Liberal Studies) at Usyd and intend on transferring then perhaps choose B Psych at Usyd. If you choose the arts stream for B Psych you will do PYSC1001 and PSYC1002 in the first year, then you have to choose 6 more units of study from the arts...

Hi! I can totally relate to what you're feeling. I come from the outer western suburbs so I felt incredibly intimidated going to USyd. However, it's been really pleasant so far, I'm in my 3rd year now and I've met a lot of friendly people from all types of background. I'm sure everyone is...

No worries! Yep pop quizzes in tutorials, you only get about 3 questions every tutorial. Haha yeah Allen George was the lecturer, sometimes you'd get guest lecturers though. I found SLSS1001 quite enjoyable, you have really interesting discussions in the tutorials and if you liked legal studies...

Hi, I can only speak for socio-legal studies. I did SLSS1001 and hardly attended my lectures, not due to clashes but rather due to laziness at waking up so early to attend it. I got through it fine. Sometimes I'd watched lecture recordings, but I mainly relied on the lecture notes available...

Definitely Sociology, well for first-year units anyways. The content was easy, the assessments were easy (the lecturer would walk you through it step-by-step, he's a cool guy), and the exam was entirely multiple-choice. However, only choose it if it interests you or perhaps complements your...

Do tutors/lecturers give you enough time to make it to your next tutorial/lecture? One of my days is hectic and I'm running all over the campus... unless I change my timetable again -.-

Does anyone know if ECOP1001 lecture A is recorded? It's the only lecture I have on a Monday :/ Also, do you think 6 hours worth of non-stop tutorials and lectures is a good idea?

Yay I got in, thanks heaps!! :jump:

I also put down b commerce b arts (arts psych btw) in my preferences and I did general maths. Don't think I'll be doing a bridging course though. What do you guys think the atar cut-off will be?

I did about five days worth of studying for the first two topics last week but I can't recall specific info now... but yeah I am currently cramming!! And it's not working, maybe I should get off bored of studies lol

Okay thanks!

Hey guys, I'm in year 12 at the moment and expect to get an ATAR somewhere in the high 80s, although I am aiming for high 90s... Anyways, I want to know if choosing B psychological science at UNSW over B psych at UWS is worth it? Both would take me around an hour to get to via train and bus...

Still on 12 units! Assessment-wise I'm doing okay considering I've never gone below 80% in my assessment marks, however I am struggling keeping up with my notes... I should've started it last year but I was too lazy. So yeah, I was considering dropping to 10 units but I just don't want to take...

Well from what I can recall, I'm pretty sure I found this site after typing a question on google regarding what subjects I should choose for 11 & 12 and ended up on the forum. Though a couple of months ago my english teacher recommended this site.

Name: Rather not say... Rank: mid 500s Teachers: Out of the six teachers I have, I'd say two are competent Resources: ... Performance: About 3 students got an ATAR in the 90s last year... Your Cohort: Known as the dumb cohort, there is no competition. I'm apparently one of the smarter...

motivation: possibly being one of the few kids who get into USYD/UNSW at my school distractions: twitter, youtube... the thought of being able to doing something else... preferably fun

Yay now I don't feel so guilty for not studying on the first week of the holidays :) I go back to school on the 26th (practically three weeks of holidays), so I've been using the 'I have a lot of time before school starts' excuse, which is somewhat true... haha

I regret not doing extension english and not doing mathematics! (I do general) Also regretting choosing Economics >< ... and the last thing I regret is not writing notes earlier :(

hah im also doing JFK, ive been given about 5 booklets and a whole load of spare sheets. im starting to hate modern history :angryfire:
