    UNSW Subject Reviews.

    ACCT3563: Ease: 5/10 - this isn't an easy course; that being said, it isn't incomprehensible either. I'm assuming you've done 2B? It probably falls smack bang in the middle of the difficulty of 2A and 2B, if that gives you any indication. Lecturers: 6/10 - some of the lecturers are good...

    Major problems and Degree issues

    technically i think there is enough units for you to do two commerce majors, but they only allow you to pick one anyway so there's no real point. *shrug* Edit: it's interesting to hear about the math and statistics double major though - had no idea you could do that!

    Major problems and Degree issues

    I think you're just going to have to try out some subjects and see what suits you. Unfortunately that's a waste of degree space, as I very well know. Seriously though, psychology is about the most interesting thing you could study imo, but I know others who think it's really, really boring. So...

    Legt2741 + Legt2751

    Hahah I'm a com/sci kid :P But yes, I hope it works out too! 3As not too bad - but your load does still sound a little scary :P

    Legt2741 + Legt2751

    Hi guys! Just a quick question: would it be a really bad idea for me to take LEGT2741 and LEGT2751 in the same semester? I don't really like legal, so doing them both in one semester seems quite daunting - but this is the only solution I see that lets me do all the subjects that I want to. I...

    Majoring in Psychology?

    You may want to consider though, that if you want to become a psychologist, doing psych through arts isn't the best idea (at UNSW anyway). I don't know about other unis, but at UNSW, I'm pretty sure you can't do psych honours through an arts degree. You don't have to do B.Psych though - if you...

    Is auditing offered in semester 2?

    Well that's completely stupid, considering 1A is a prerequisite for 1B. Poor first years, they're getting amazingly screwed over

    What you hate about UNSW

    I know the first year GEOS subjects have disappeared - maybe they have been renamed, I'm not too sure about that - but if that's the case they should probably update the handbook for a geology major ..... -_- Also, ACCT3583 seems to have disappeared (it's an e-business accounting subject) and...

    First Year S2 Science Elective?

    Thanks guys! You've calmed my fears somewhat - reading the BIOS1101 thread was quite scary. It's nice to know I still have options (that I should be able to make it through BIOS without failing) in case PHYS falls through. That would be awesome if I am able to do that. Thanks heaps - I'll go...

    What you hate about UNSW

    Is it just me or is UNSW not offering a lot of courses in 2009? Or dropping courses that were offered in both semesters down to one semester? I was trying to timetable my courses for next year and I was actually really shocked at how many courses suddenly don't exist anymore! =/ =/

    Best University to study Psychology at?

    This is actually something really important - I know at USyd, they don't have this guarantee so they're already competing for honours positions. I've been told that realistically, a student there would have to get about 75 + to have a good chance of getting into honours. And even if you have...

    Easiest subject: LEGT2741, ACCT3563 (3a / issues) or ACCT3708 (3b / auditing)

    As lavenderpup mentioned, auditing isn't 3B. I know 3A was difficult - definately not as difficult as 2B but not a good choice if you're looking for easy marks.

    First Year S2 Science Elective?

    Awww that sounds like an awesome course to take! Especially the 4 day field trip! They're not offering it next year though unfortunately :(. Is it just me or are a lot of courses being discontinued? Are there new courses being offered in their stead? On that note - none of the first year...

    First Year S2 Science Elective?

    Thanks for your speedy replies guys! The handbook says "level 1 courses from Science schools", so I'm assuming that I can't actually do those history of science subjects (which is a bummer.) I had a look through the courses offered in session two and so far I can only find two offered with no...

    First Year S2 Science Elective?

    Hi guys! With 2009 enrolments on the horizon, I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for some do-able first year semester 2 science courses? I'm in the final year of my commerce/science degree, and I have to find another first year science course to do (as the degree requires 4...

    Exam timetables

    Haha, not really all cores. In order: Accounting 3B Social Psychology Research Methods 3B Business Finance Accounting and Finance I was expecting to be pretty early, since they're both large courses (and 1st year subjects ftw! :D) but the scheduling of the psych subjects confuse me. Oh...

    The Woolworths Thread

    haha i've had no shifts for two weeks which did seem really bizarre.. i haven't decided whether to be happy or not :P (didn't realise how dependent i'd become on having money ><) hope that's the reason and not that they've suddenly decided i sucked or something ! -_-
