    Communications:Roll Call!/Getting to know you!

    lol - I was in tute 14 with Jane Houghton as tutor. EDIT: Oh, and can anyone give me a rundown of what was covered in the tutorial for Power and Change? Due to a timetable clash I wasn't able to make it...(I went to the lecture though).

    Communications:Roll Call!/Getting to know you!

    It is pretty lame, but we have different lecturers each week so maybe it won't be so bad later on..(*hopeful*). I hated the bit with the assessment too, but especially this phrase: "you're assessment will be marked as one, this means that those at a higher level must work to bring the lower...

    Mathematics

    Actually, once you have sat your Ext 2 exam in Mathematics, your 2u Mathematics marks will cease to exist for all practical terms regarding the UAI- even if you perform worse in 4u than 2u. The reasoning for this is that 2u maths is asssumed knowledge for the 4u course and effectively becomes...

    how old was the oldest to sit the hsc

    It could be a point of pride, they just want their HSC plus they want a learning experience. Otherwise there is university entrance - while there are plenty of other (faster) pathways into uni than HSC it also allows you to get used to an academic experience again. I'd also like the mention...

    Does Year 11 count towards UAI?

    Brizza2ndtime - if you are doing a limited UAI you don't really need to worry about the year 11 stuff. While a prelim assessment can count for some courses(I had one myself - only counted 15% though) it won't count across two different sittings of the HSC. So you will be starting fresh. What I...

    Communications:Roll Call!/Getting to know you!

    C means city campus M means markets site(as opposed to broadway) 05B means the building number (i think) 01 means the floor 11 means the room number I don't know why you would be there though...cos thats the business and law faculty, not communications:s

    TSBTS: Ambrose Gorringe

    Easy as pie.:) Ambrose is a horrendously wealthy and private man who values very little in the world apart from his extremely private castle(which he likes to keep that way). He also has somewhat of an obsession with death as can be seen with his collection of artefacts. He is also amoral and...

    how old was the oldest to sit the hsc

    Well the oldest I know of, and it might be the one you are referring to, was in his late 80s when he did the HSC via OTEN(correspondence TAFE) and that was in 03 or 04.

    Does Year 11 count towards UAI?

    Generally your year 11 marks make no contribution to your final HSC marks and thus no contribution to UAI. However a small handful of places(incl. some TAFEs) will include the final preliminary assessment as part of the HSC score - though this is allowable only in General Maths, 2u Math and 3u...

    From TAFE to Uni, your guide to the process

    UAI cut-offs are not static and do not remain in the one position - an example would be UWS Bachelor of Law which previously had a cut-off over 90 but recently fell down to approximately 85 so you will always be considered it merely depends on how competitive other applicants marks are. Other...

    Business Administration Certificate 4

    Hi Writer Chick.:) Firstly, with your textbook problems you could probably find a copy or an older edition at one of the TAFE libraries and it doesn't even have to be from the TAFE you are enrolled at - it can be any TAFE library. As regarding online help with subject content, if you don't...

    when do we start!!!

    Hmm, I think it depends on the exact subject you do as well because the tute vs. seminar thing mentioned wouldn't apply to say French as we do mixed sessions rather than a lecture/seminar followed by a tute. I'm guessing since our mentors were subject specific that whatever dates we recieved...

    Cordelia Gray TSBTS

    Some very basic stuff about good old Cordy: *Though she is in a rather low class job, she has recieved an extensive education similar to most of the upper classes(ie she can quote Austen, Webster and so on with ease). *Though she is aware of most of what it takes to be a detective, and displays...

    Really big problem with timetable

    ok, here's the problem: I do two courses: one at UTS(Communications in Writing & Cultural) and one at MQ(French), and to make the timetables fit I need to do morning sessions in one of my UTS units so thats what I put in. To my horror, UTS put me in the afternoon session of that unit instead...

    Need some general info on the high school system

    1. Depends on what you term as graduation - some schools hold graduation events perhaps a week before the state wide exams. If you mean official government graduation, well we recieve our certificate in the mail approximately 2 months after the last exam has finished. 2. If a student is...
