Right now I do about 22 hours, but im trying to bump it up a bit. I was reading this crappy study guide we got from school, and it says that you should do a minimum of 20 hours a week!! And im trying to get a 95+ UAI, so it makes me feel as though i should be doing more. But I dont know how I...

So your GPA doesnt make a difference as long as it is over 5.5? What about the other universities? Is it more like undergraduate medicine where if you get a high UAI you only need a low UMAT score and vice versa? Just curious.

Don't forget an example. Backing up everything you say with textual evidence is essential.

Welcome 2 BoS Or if you have any specific questions, just post them here, and someone should answer it.

We dont get lockers. Or laptops. Or anything cool. :(

Ha, me too. But now i have realised that i have to study, and i actually want to, but I cant find the time! Usually on the holidays I get bored, but this holidays, Ive been trying to work heaps so i dont have to work much next year, and ive been going out a lot. Next week i dont have any...

Ive never even heard of face2face! I remember there was a thread either here or on medstudentsonline and everybody rated helpfulness of the prep courses for each of the three sections. I got the impression from that thread that Medentry was the best overall. But thats just what ive found, it...

Its not the physical injury that is relevant. Its the fact that her sister tried to commit suicide! Do you have any idea how much that would affect someone emotionally?

I was in the exact situation as you. My advice is to read essays. My brother told me to do it, and it definelty works. Any essays you can find, as long as they are good ones. Anything you can find that is better than yours. I find reading other students essays (like your friends) is helpful...

Exactly. But you can still get a good mark if you do it text by text if it is done well.

Really? So ANY TWO units of English are counted? Sweet, I can stop doing work in advanced :)

Ive seen Appleseed. It was pretty ok, the story was a bit cliche. Didnt like Trigun. Thanks for the suggestions. Ive heard a bit about Rurouni Kenshin so i might have to check it out. And the Cowboy Beebop movie is on SBS tomorrow night.

Well I read comic books, and my brothers into anime, and hes started getting me into it too (and ive started gettin him into comics so its all good). Just finished watching it Serial Experiments Lain. Its really amazing. Trippy, but good. Love the existentialist themes and everything. Ive...

My school is behind in bio. My science faculty is hopeless. Weve still got 1/3 of my bio topic to go! If it really worries you than you should catch up yourself in the holidays. Thats what i plan to do.

Personally I think its better to focus on one aspect. That way you can explore it in depth and show the markers that you really have an understanding of it, rather than just vaguelly skimming over a number of theories.

Basically its because the private school kids have been 'spoon-fed' and are not used to working independently. Unlike the public school kids who are used to working hard as they have to make do with inferior resources, teachering, etc and are forced to do a lot of work by themselves. As...

Yay random old thread! Dislike: -Crap teachers -Crap resources -Students who dont care -Lack of multiculturalism (seriously my entire school is white! Theres nothing wrong with that, but it kinda sucks when your the only ethnic person in your school! Im african btw) -Our uniform is brown and...

Hey, Ive already started doing mine! Only the interesting stuff though, Im probably going to end up leaving modern history till a week before it is due. Besides, this year got their UAIs, and since everyone in my school went crap, ive realised ive gotta step it up if i want a decent UAI.

Re: Holiday study? Isnt there already a thread about this?

Thats what i thought. I work past 9 a lot anyway. I was just told that there is a law against it but i didnt think it was true.
