I guess the course hasn't improved since when I did it back in 2004 ...

Yes I am in England now at the University of Cambridge. Thanks! :D I got quite good marks in my Medical Science degree so I decided to give it a go and see if Cambridge will have me. I also wanted an overseas experience. I applied online, with the support of 3 academic referees. In the...

I'm not sure about the pay but I would imagine it would be really hard work and youhave to be on call, probably 24 hours. Yes you can get into graduate medicine after 3 years (from any discipline). Almost all graduate medical degrees are 4 yeas in length. This option requires you to sit a...

UNSW dropped 2.. It's been dropping ever since the ranking was published. :(

Re: Pls read if you're considering pharm (warning: very lengthy) I'm in England at the moment. :p (refer to my signature)

Re: Pls read if you're considering pharm (warning: very lengthy) I still need to draw graphs and write essays. These are transferrable skills that will get you through different jobs! Don't get confused between transferrable skills and discipline-specific skills!

Re: English ESL paper 2 and listening From my understanding of the HSC, if you have special considerations due to illness or personal problem, you will receive an estimated mark for your HSC. You will not be able to sit the HSC exam at a later day so it is perfectly safe for you to discuss...

Pick a range of methdologies that will give you both quantitative and qualitative results. These results must also specifically address your focus question and/or provide evidence to support your hypothesis.

Re: Pls read if you're considering pharm (warning: very lengthy) Well doen to both lala2 and danz90! @ lala2: now you don't have to live in Dubbo (pretty boring unless it's the cherry season) and you can enjoy life in Manly! yay! You must be so excited!

I sort of miss UNSW now I'm in England... :(

I'd like to see the whole question (Q11) including the graph if anyone has it so I can have a go in confirming it.

Yes, although both A and C are correct, the question is asking for the best procedure to prevent spreading of the disease, and A is the best answer (quarantine and vaccination).

Yes they do vaccinate animals. You can create a vaccine against almost all pathogens, including bacteria (Tuberculosis vaccine for TB), viruses (Hepatitis B vaccine, Mumps, Rubella vaccine - surely you must remember these!) and protozoa (Malaria vaccine).

Refer to my previous response for explanation as to how vaccination prevents spreading of a disease.

Vaccination, like you said, stimulates long term protective immunity against a pathogen. So when this immunised individual do get the pathogen, the immune system will quickly destroy it, therefore, preventing further spreading of this pathogen to other healthy individual. That is why the...

I think it's fine as long as you have the right research methodologies to find the answers to your focus question. e.g. How do these dating practices differ between different groups? More importantly, WHY are they different? If you can design your methdologies that will help you address these...

I think the answer to 4 is most lkely to be A. You first seperate the diseased animals in one enclosure, then vaccinate all healthy animals to prevent healthy animals from getting and spreading the disease. "B" isn't the best answer because it's too late to vaccinate diseased animals (no...

It does look like a very interesting degree to do.

*sighs*.. is that how we go about getting new labs... should have told me earlier... :D

How did that happen?? Is it due to the bunsen? :p
