    I bet you hate BSSM by now, unless you're one of the weird ones that like history... :p

    major confusion >.< plz help

    Yes, crossing over involves chromatids and translocation involves the movement of DNA from one chromosome to another. Recombinant DNA is only a part of gene cloning. The term recombinant DNA is a loose term which just simply means a DNA that is made up from different organism. But in gene...

    B Science in regards to psychology

    Hmmm, psychology at UNSW is HUGE. SO many different subjects. Bascially choose anything with the prefix PSYCXXXX then you'll be fine.

    science at unsw

    Opps, I didn't read your question properly. I picked UNSW because: For the science degree, UNSW is more flexible. In USyd, they would have made me do Physics, 2 semester of maths. In UNSW, I only have to do 1 semester of maths and no physics at all if you don't want to. Plus 3 electives for...

    science at unsw

    They are equally great! whichever you pick you'll expose to some extremely talented people working with you, in a high-tech environment. :) I really like UNSW's Biological science subjects because they are usually very organise. The first year labs are clean and modern. You can pick later...

    major confusion >.< plz help

    1. jessied got it right for the trosomy/triploidy. 2. jessied didn't exactly got it correct. Crossing over is where two homologous chromatids exchange genetic materials, NOT sister chromatids. For example, the chromatids of chromosome 1 and a chromatids of chromosome 2 swap some part of their...

    UNSW favouring certain highschooLs?

    I think that's more like sponsorship than favoritism... It's like UWS offering scholarship to western suburb schools.

    UNSW favouring certain highschooLs?

    Yes. It all boils down to UAIs. Of course unless a course require some other criteria such as med and music.. any unis can't "favour" this kid with a UAI of 99.00 compared to another kid with a UAI of 99.00....No-one cares what school you were in once you get to uni anyway (ask any of your...

    science at unsw

    You are asked to do at least 1 maths subject in first year (6 units). I don't think that's too much to ask for a science student, which ties with maths anyway.

    UNSW Medical science intake

    It used to be around 100, but since there are more HECS places available from this year onward, there will be around 120-130 places available.

    Australian Idol 2005

    I think the judges thought the Australian public would have chosen Roxanne, hence didn't pick her.. but how risky... :( First two out of top 12 will be Laura and Tarni :D

    DNA Polymerase Chain Reaction Question

    I haven't done this modules so I don't know what depth you need to know. But sometimes you need to know more thazn you need to in order to understand certain concepts. But generally you learn the 5', 3' of the DNA and stuff like this in 1st year. Then in seconmd year, you understand the whole...

    DNA Polymerase Chain Reaction Question

    Although a lot of people likes to transfer out of medical science, I am one of those who are going to stay still the end. I am even going to do Honours and a higher degree if I am given the opportunity. I just want to be in medical research, which is what B Med science has to offer. :)

    Full fee is generally 3 times more expensive.

    DNA Polymerase Chain Reaction Question

    The primer will be placed at the beginning of each strand. You don't need to know what the primer does but if you're interested, the primer is needed so that the polymerse can add bases onto the primer, as it cannot just synthesise a new strand from scratch. Because the two original strands...

    Filling out co-op application form

    representing school and play sport on a saturday = school activity. Outside of school activities doesn't mean you do stuff outside of school.... it's things like volunteering with red cross or volunteering at the hospital.... helping to plant trees.. lol you get the point. Non-school related.
