    I'd like to ask a question - I'm planning on doing alot of work on the biki when this semester finishes and I have more concentrated blocks of free time and I was planning to rely partially on notes in the resource section. Since(if I'm reading this right) all the better notes will be made...

    How lazy are we really at Club Mac?

    *shrug* I just think some people react to the uni life differently - I know some people never have enough time even when they're only doing 2/3 subjects a semester whereas others have time to spare even while they're overloading with 5/6 subjects a semester. I know what you mean though - no one...

    Hi! My main course at UTS - communications[writing & culture], has an option of picking arts electives from any uni for our second year[I'm in first year now] and I was looking at the second year english units at MQ and they look quite cool, however I have no interest at all in doing ENG120...

    tSBtS: Context

    When I looked at context for this for this text, I tried not to place them in categories as that can limit what you see and some stuff crosses over...but basically[obviously this isn't everything, just some points of note]: TSBS is set in britain, with distinctly 'british' values - eg stoical...

    Please PLEASE help me!

    Cultural studies is nothing like module B, cultural texts would be say a house wife's apron or a greek peach or any symbol that has cultural meaning. Even your nail clippers. I chose writing mainly because I just like to write - I did at one stage consider journalism but that seemed less...

    Which course is best for me?

    If you want to go to Lidcombe, then this is the only IT course they have available for someone with only an SC/CGVE. However, if you go here then you will find a list of all courses available statewide to people with an SC. Then its just a matter of finding the appropriate location...

    How's life in TAFE?

    Some things on TAFE: Classes will probably range from say around 15 to nearly 30 people. Classes are generally fairly relaxed from what I've seen - refer to the teacher on a first name basis and do the work as you need to etc. Most of the people at TAFE are probably goig to be a bit older...

    Please PLEASE help me!

    They will still take your UAI into consideration I believe[like 50/50 i think], you might also have the option of submitting a personal statement as well. As for communications [writing & cultural studies]... In first year, your studies will be divided up into four areas: Communications and...

    Box Hill Institute of TAFE

    Cool, thanks - I'm currently doing a BA in Communications (Writing & Cultural Studies) at the University of Technology, which is a great course however finding work in this industry is rather tough so I want some extra hands on experience and an extra foot in the door so to speak. So they...

    Please PLEASE help me!

    Um, if I remember correctly, they don't look at what course your marks are from, rather they look at how good they are. So a BA student with a C avge would have many more transfer options than a MBBS.BA student with a P avge. If you got in, you'd definitely have to start in first year again...

    The Usage Of The Word- "BLOODY" In Tourism Ads.

    I find the campaign to get bloody aired to be somewhat infantile - I detest the way its been portrayed on the news as if our rights are being suppressed: 'Oh noes!11one!! I can't have an advertisement about Australia filled with cliches aired in another country! What shall I do now?!=O"...

    The Board also releases bullitens of sorts that detail exactly what they're updating in the syllabus - you could try searching through those in the site, though I warn you it may take a while.

    getting busted for sending a bad email to a teacher

    Threats can be taken seriously, you're in an adult environment and accountable for what you say just like every other adult. I personally think they won't get the police/courts involved but a warning or suspension of enrollment is a very likely possibility IMO. Next time you want to discuss...
