    Anyone really dislike extension history?

    The historiography shit can get really boring but some of the readings are amusing (re: catfight between elton and carr i think? or two historians at least. it's been 2 years!! lol) the case study is an unfortunate thing: if you get stuck with one you hate (not necessarily bad but it may not...

    Is it easy to transform (transfer) a course?

    Re: Is it easy to transform a course? I think you mean "transfer" rather than transform :p With USYD, to transfer from one course to another (even if they're in the same faculty...unless it's combined law you're talking about) you have to apply through UAC what courses are you talking about?

    Econ & Business Subjects choice...

    I had Dennis for lecturer (he was great though unlike De Roos) but he did the double negatives thing alot too. I think it's always like that in economics though cos every economics course I've had uses alot of annoying double negatives in questions. Drives you nuts :mad:

    De Roos doesn't give the impression that he has a personality or anything so expressing anything like mean-ness seems almost impossible...

    Best Economics Textbook

    Its not all stats. People just browse and concentrate on the tables and graphs. The explanations are very good if you can get past that.

    Skincare/Makeup Brands

    they're ok but for really dry lips, they don't last long and you have to keep re applying them. I have the blue one. A better one is the bright red tube of Bonne Bell Lip conditioner. It smells so good and stays on the lips conditioning for aaages.

    random tip: make sure you explicitly go through the annoying qualitative and quantitive crap that he'll tell you about.

    Imagine.......Too Easy?

    The usual rule that applies is: "if the text is not original or not sophisticated then you better have great insight into it to incorporate it into a great essay. If you've got that insight and perception, GREAT! If not..." this case is an exception though. OVER-USED! UNORIGINAL! there are...

    First year meant to be the hardest?

    I gotta say that's true for me. I never wanted to be in a position where I agree with a comment like that but unfortunately I am. It's not too bad but I really thought I could claw my way through a degree that was never really "me". Still clawing haha :)...:(

    Semester 1 Chatter Thread (2006)

    Re: Semester 1 Chatter Yeah I gotta agree, the Bull is useless and boring. It used to have some occasional good stuff like that editorial page by the witty and usually politically incorrect writer, can't remember his name, Now its A4 with about 4 glossy pages in total and I still prefer to...

    First year meant to be the hardest?

    I have only started second year and I felt that, academically, 1st year was not exactly difficult. It felt like everything was crazy-hard at the time but looking back, it was pretty easy. The thing is, like everyone has said, the adjustment factor is hard. Not for everyone but I definately had a...
