Both uni is great for Actuarial studies. If you prefer the UNSW campus, then come to UNSW. It was one of the reason I picked UNSW 2 years ago. :)

Since you want to get into med, do B Sc because it gives you flexibility Advantage: Only 3 years, flexibility B Sc/B Art Advantages: Widen career paths in case you don't get into Med Disadvantage: 4 years. So you won't be able to get into Med faster and would have to pay more HECS for...

If you did well in any particular assessments and in the HSC ESL Exam, please submit your essays that you have wrote during your the course of your ESL study in Year 12, so that future classes of ESL students can benefit from your understanding of the various prescribed texts. Currently we...

It's a difficult question to answer because it is very subjective. The question you should be asking is "what is the best science degree for me?" UNSW Med Science is more flexible in that you can choose to do/not do Physics, and only 1 or 2 semesters of maths. In USyd, you have to do physics...

Good to hear! :)

Yes. Sorry, my mistake.

Then I hope you'll get in the first time. :) Or do Optometry after your Bachelor's degree.

You don't need UMAT at any stage for Optometry entry, whether you are going straight into Optom from the HSC or transferring to Optometry from B science. UMAT is for entry into Medicine, not Optometry. :) If you want to transfer to Optometry from B Science after first year in B Science, they...

I agree with Lex :) Do it because you want to become a researcher. If not, seriously re-consider.

if you want to do graduate medicine, don't bother doing Medical Science. This degree is for people who wants to go on to do Honours and PhD and to become a researcher. :) You're better off doing a B Science. You get to choose whatever you want to do.

I am currently working in a Diabetes Transplant Unit, which is a research centre trying to find a cure to diabetes using Stem cells and liver cells. One of the major problem in this field of work is the ethical issues involved. It would be a great idea to look at the ethical issues encompassing...

How can 1251 being the top maths class is beyond me. The recommended HSC maths mark for 1151 is lower than 1141... Anyway.. the highest mark for 1241 is 99.

Most likely.

You don't need UMAT for Optometry! "Admission Requirements Normal entry is into Stage 1 of the BOptom BSc program and is limited by a quota into Stage 1. Higher School Certificate (or Equivalent) In 2006 admission to the BOptom BSc course is subject solely to selection on the...

I think you have a big chance! :)

Read my above post! :) Both Unis are great. It really doesn't matter which one you decide to do because you will come out highly regarded (depends on your marks). You future emplouyer is not going to say "oh wait! you go to USyd, I won't employ you because I preferred UNSW graduates" or vice...

err no.. as an Advanced Science yourself, you should be aware that UNSW Advanced Science program does not have a quota. It will accept anyone who has achieved a UAI of 90 or more. In some cases, students who just got below 90 (indicated by previous UAI cutoff) or with some sort of...

Good to hear! At UNSW, neither is harder. Both are science degrees. If majoring in the same specialisation, you do exactly the same course. In both degree you have the option to do Advanced courses. :)

Maybe it's just a typo. Confirm with your Program Authority. :)

So they only accept about 25-30 students this year? hmm.. You can always do B Science then transfer to BOptom/BSc since it is now a double degree...
