    Where to go for a degree in meteorology?

    All really good info here. Another way to view it is to search the Job-Seeking websites for a meteorologist role, and look at the degree requirements and that can also shed light on what businesses are looking for. You might find it opens doors at other universities. If there are no local...

    Biotechnology

    You can contact the careers person that works at each uni and ask them about job prospects of their graduates. That might help steer you in a certain direction. One faculty might have a partnership with a large private/government employer and their line of biotech work could really interest your...

    Best university for law

    Its a fairly slim margin between all universities. UTS probably at the top UoW, Mac, and WSU probably an equal tie for third. UTS will give you a wider network around the CBD. UoW and WSU have really open campuses. Not too sure about Macquarie. Each uni has a staff member allocated for...

    Exercise Physiology

    Pick based on where you might get the most enjoyment. Population in Sydney is high so you would expect there to be more job prospects, which might reduce your job-hunt stress. The Wollongong location is good so you might find you have more personal enjoyment from a work/life balance. Look up 3...

    Best Textbooks for Chemistry and Physics?

    Most public libraries will have copies of Year 11 and 12 textbooks. I suggest you borrow a couple, use them, and see which suits you the best. Everyone is different, so sometimes it is hard to pick a textbook based on other peoples recommendations. Good luck!

    is uow a good law school

    Never studied law but Sydney has a much larger market for lawyers. Having the same volume of law at UoW doesn't compare. I have heard on the grapevine that the larger law companies are more likely to select students from their local universities (UNSW / USyd). If you are determined to succeed in...

    UTS or UOW for mechanical engineering?

    UoW has a lot of private engineering industry surrounding it, and the lecturers have good contacts with that market. UTS has the strength of 2x 6-month work experiences in the degree. It will mostly be office consulting-based engineering but there is a huge range of options to select from. Both...

    Medical Science vs. Pre-Med

    Have you been to any of the university open days? There is often a course coordinator you can track down to help clarify the differences between degrees. Its also usually possible to call an admin number for staff who look after the specific med school. Ask for the course coordinator or one of...

    What does 'give a laboratory test for ___' mean?

    "give a laboratory test' means what is an experiment you could perform to test for the presence of the gaseous products. For example, in the case of CO2, you could bubble that into limewater (calcium hydroxide) and the limewater will turn milky. That is a test for the presence of CO2...

    Should I take a break after trials?

    Definitely. You will be far more productive if you reset and relax, compared to trying to study directly after trials. You want to avoid getting burnt out as best you can.

    How to Analyse in Physics

    Hi. The NESA definition of analyse is to "identify components and the relationship between them; draw out and relate implications'. So essentially, you are looking for common information across secondary resources to talk about the Rutherford Bohr model of the atom, etc. You also need to...

    Engineering Dropout rates UOW

    Last I heard it was a general 30% rate, however this will change from year-to-year. I tend to think of it this way- if your brain is geared towards something like electrical engineering and you enjoy it, you will stay in the course and it won't be too hard (but something like physical education...

    UOW Early Offer Interview - Law 2018

    I heard on the grapevine there were no more guaranteed offers; most are now bound to achieving X mark in a particular subject, and this is generally across the board. Does anyone know if this is true?
