    anyone doing Coleridge?

    We studied Coleridge in extension english when I was in Yr 11 and I really loved his poems.... I thought they were beautiful. Which ones are the ones set for HSC study now?? I'd try and help but I'm not sure of the whole imaginative journeys paradigm so my help might not be so helpful lol.

    Is Poetry so bad?

    I may sound bitter and twisted, but make sure you detach yourself a bit from your major work after handing it in, especially if you are writing in a medium that you love.... after being chewed up and spit out by the system, I really have very little desire to write poetry whatsoever any...

    Anyone thinking of a remark?

    Well see the letter I got today was only for a clerical recheck... my teacher protested my Eng Ex 2 mark, but we have heard absolutely nothing back from the board about that one... Our school did so shit this year.... worst in 11 years!!! We can't figure out why... maybe lots of not so smart...

    Enrolment

    What does enrolment entail? Are there any fees and stuff I have to pay on enrolment? What about HECS? If I wanted to pay some or all of my HECS is that done on enrollment? Any help would be tops.

    Anyone thinking of a remark?

    Thanks for clearing that up for us. My teacher put in a protest about a mark, and I have not heard anything back from the board yet... not even a letter saying the protest was unsuccessful... do you have any idea how long it may be before I would get a response? Also if you sent away for a...

    Modern Resources?

    Republic to Reich is good, as is McCallums (is it called Germany Democracy to Dictatorship? Something like that can't remember!) Also, for Indochina, Contested Spaces (I think it was by Cantwell) and Conflict in Indochina (Ian Sutherland, he was my history teacher) are good. Cantwell's book...

    Essay topics

    Hatty, if u want, post up your practise essays on the board and people can take a look if they are familiar with the topic and give advice... also, you could save them until u go back to school and ask your teachers to take a look at them, I'm sure they wouldn't mind.

    Laptops

    I ended up buying the Dell... And for those that were telling me the pros/cons vs a desktop, I already know... the main reason for getting a laptop is that I will be going back and forth from home (Albury) to Syd during hols and breaks.... also I'm living in student accomodation which they...

    Overload?

    Damn... it's just that 12 hours of face to face for communications seems like barely anything..... of course I would just do the normal credit load for first semester though because the workload may be decieving but I would have liked the opportunity to take some extra subjects etc.

    Overload?

    I saw people on UNSW/USyd board talking about taking a higher subject load (i.e. extra subjects/credit points) to do more subjects or do their degree faster... Can u do that at UTS? I was just curious....

    are you over ur UAI?

    It seems like such a fruitless exercise... to strive all year for a number... especially when the number lets you down and just leaves you with uncertainty.... oh well on Monday when we know where we are going now we will be able to move on.... the whole process is so drawn out, it seems like I...

    Is Poetry so bad?

    If I had my time again I wouldn't have done poetry.... not that I'm advising you against it... I think you really need to have a good idea of your actual poetic ability and you would have to delve in to something really deep with your poetry otherwise they won't get the marks...
