Allo! Sorry for being late in reply. PS. Enrollment was pure hell. I seriously considered rescinding my acceptance because enrolling was so freaking painful and such a traumatising experience. But anyhoo...so, subjects. - ECOP1001 (Talked to Frank Stilwell our lecturer, he's awesomeness...

There are no real good or bad subjects, its a matter of how good YOU are at the subject.

Dude, you'll be fine. Make sure, if you're struggling, to make your teachers aware of it so they can help you. Really, stress less, put your head down, work hard, work smart, and play hard too.

No - UNE would be hellish for most ppl to get to, (fortunatley) they're more considerate than that! 2 locations last year. - Elanora Heights conference centre - and one in Chatswood.

Combined Law - USyd. Tossing up between Law/Political, economic, social science OR Law/Arts.

^ All things which can be corrected in time. And pssh. Campus life? Compared to Americans with their residential college system, Australia in general has no campus life. PS. Thanks for the correction, I didn't know med was offered at UWS already. Ah...yeah, that could be a problem. How...

Wow, brilliant! Thanks!

You're right. EE1 and Eng Adv is quite different, and as someone who considered English my best subject, my view is that EE1 is DEFINITELY harder than Eng Adv. Let me clarify why: 1. EE1 essays are written in a very different style to Eng Advanced ones. The emphasis is very much on paradigms...

Though, I was completely devo after my Modern History teacher left us (suddenly!) in mid-Year 11. He was one of, if not the top teacher we had, (senior HSC marker, lectures for HTA frequently, writes Modern Hist and Hist X textbooks), Oxford educated, all round amazing guy. But then his...

Oh, sorry, lol. My Princeton interviewer was a 25yo lacrosse playing jock, My Harvard interviewer is a 22 yo rowing jock. :) Both very nice ppl, and investment bankers.

Yeah. The unis rely on their alumni network, and students beginning in their last year of uni can start being interviewers. Anyway, will let you know how it goes! (He seems nice anyway).

He's another young jock :P. I facebook stalked him - he graduated in '09 (!!!) and was a recruited rower (Victorian under-19 state champion or somesuch). I seems I am doomed to see the ivies represented by jocks doubling as investment bankers. :haha:

aww! Nvm, we'll find each other at O-week :). I might not see you at all on the 25th by the sounds of it - I have some volunteering related thing on that day, so its abit hectic. My Harvard interview is on the 24th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Its all so crazy atm).

Btw Thomas, did I ever tell you how much I love that you have a Dostoevsky quote as your sig? My whole EE2 was The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky, and I LOOVE Russian lit. :D See you enrolment day?!!!!! Wendy. :)

Good lord! USyd, Law. :jaw:

Thanks for the rep! PS. I'm also doing Combined law at USyd! See you on enrolment day + no doubt also all the time we'll spend in the kickass law building :D

I actually like what UWS is doing with its teaching - so no derogatory comments from my whatsoever! :D It sounds like you really enjoy UWS and have alot of satisfaction with it - go with your heart! PS. I agree, its Law is going to grow, and (I think) it is also opening up for Med very...
