haha nice comparison :) Pity we don't have staff that are quite as comical

I looked at mine, they're all basically just under $2.00 cheaper... that is the few that are there to date. The majority of my courses the text lists aren't available yet but i'm assuming it's basically the same. Bit silly that my 2nd summer school unit is one of the ones unavailable to date...

Further to the post above - if your book list details aren't on the connect books site, you can find them in unit outlines as you mentioned above. These unit outlines will be available on the vUWS website (Log in to vUWS) once your unit coordinators put them up. The unit outlines = subject...

Apart from UWS custom publications and course readers, don't forget you can get textbooks elsewhere, including Co-Op, textbook exchange, lawbooks for law and some business ones etc once you find out your texts - you may be able to avoid UWS Connect Books altogether if you luck it out and only...

Lol you're doing my degree :) The HRM and IR coordinator-academics are awesome and really helpful people. Plus you're lucky to be starting now - a lot changed since i started it in 2005 in a good way.

There are buses straight to the uni from Parra station bus area - can't remember which stand it is, but the stand they leave from there's a half a dozen different route number buses you can catch. They come every 10 - 15 minutes ish from memory. When i did the business degree (2005 - 2007)...

The short version of a long and complicated answer is - if your heart is absolutely set on doing Law, go with the Law at UWS option. If you are dead set on law - its not the best idea to do the business degree and aim to transfer as there is no guarantee you will be able to transfer so better...

Congratulations on finishing! I'm sure there are many jealous law students in here like me who are very jealous and can't wait to be in the same position! :)

haha :p well that is if they don't change the timetable. I only have 2 days autumn semester :) Although - i am only doing 3 units per semester cause i'm doing 2 in summer... doubt i'd be able to get that few days if i was doing 4.

Yeah i'm just hoping everyone doesn't change to night classes cause night classes aren't too bad at the moment cause i work in Parra so i get to uni a half hour before more people do since most come from the city direction. I'll be glad if my Spring timetable remains the way it is because I'll...

Glad I didn't go then - doesn't sound as though there would have been much to say to prospective students in those conditions. As far as the heat - man it sucks! I have summer school at the moment and it's supposed to hit 41 degrees today inthe west and they can't/won't put the air con on in...

Care to elaborate? I was supposed to go but was feeling sick so couldn't so am interested to know as if it really was a waste of time, I won't agree to attend any in future :p

As far as a i know it's UAI based only, and you also have to live in one of the UWS area postcodes - there's a list on the website. You should have a look through the scholarships on offer on the website as unlike other areas of the UWS website, this area is actually pretty clear and...

I have the UWS Academic Excellence Scholarship; UWS Blacktown City Council Academic Excellence Scholarship plus the Blacktown Council Tertiary Scholarship (not UWS related - but UWS seems to be a big bonus to the people who decide who gets it - keep an eye out for info if you live in blacktown...

These debates are always interesting - i.e. those concerning 'success' in law/as a lawyer. It's all relative to your own goals so any statements about the 'success' of graduates shouldn't weigh too heavily on any decision. It's also relative to the area of law you want to work in and whether...

Not necessarily so - one of the pitfalls of UWS Law is that not all subjects (electives) run on all campuses so you are more than likely to run into students from the other campus at some point. It may be useful to meet some earlier on :)

Its not necessarily a bad thing it is later - as a scholarship recipient, you get asked to attend some of these events to have a talk to 'future students' and their parents. Personally i think it is much more useful having it run partly out of business hours as students such as myself who are...

Depends on the lecturer and whether you know them i guess - I've had no problems finding out my rank from lecturers who knew me. Friends have said that they had difficulty finding out ranks though, but they were from lecturers who didn't know them so perhaps that makes a difference. ALso - I...

Thanks :) All things going to plan, I should finish the law degree end of 2009. I feel for you btw - 84's and 74's suck! I'd so rather get just over a credit than just under a D lol
