Wow. And I thought *I* had a lot of work do this weekend. ;) Good luck with it all, mate.

I studied both "The Great Gatsby" and "American Beauty" in relation to the American Dream. They go together really well, especially if you read Gatsby before watching AB. Then you'll be able to figure out who the "Tom" character is, who the "Nick" character is, Daisy, Myrtle, etc etc. I'd...

nvm, totally had a brain fart and misread something. :o

I want next week to be over already.

Yeah, definitely UTS' Media Arts & Production degree is the best one out there for undergrads in NSW. I'm really interested in scriptwriting, film-making and producing, editing etc as well and I haven't found any other course that offers what UTS does.

This is fucked up. I could have sworn 12 units was the MINIMUM amount needed in your preliminary year in order to receive a UAI. Accelerating aside, of course. I am quite confused.

I thought the middle of Term 1 was the hardest, just because there were SO many assessments due at the same time and the work was expected to be of such a high quality I was not used to. But I think it's a matter of settling in. By the time Term 4 comes around, yeah, the work will be harder but...

This gives me relief, but not for the reasons you'd intend. I would RATHER compete against the state than my school. The amount of pressure that is put on me and my peers in the bubble I live in can be overwhelming at times. Meauring up against the rest of the state would only put things into...

Well. Lucid can, at times, be condescending and, yes, an asshat. It's no secret to him that I think this way. I have no problem letting him know when I find that he's getting overbearing, but I don't know, over the months I've kind of become accustomed to his posts and don't find them too bad...

It's probably "strongly encouraged" (like 3U English is at my school); however, I don't know if it's set in stone.

I'm not directing anything at you, just talking about the train of thought in general.

I love Legal. Who gives a shit if it has no bearing on a Law degree at uni? That's not why I picked up the subject, so why would that bother me? I never understood how or why that argument was relevant. :confused:

I think scrapping the SC is fucking stupid, to be perfectly frank. It may have been a waste of time for people who planned to continue on to senior years, but since a large proportion of Year 10 students plan on leaving, it needed to exist. Not to mention that it provides Year 10 students who...

Re: Career Choices: What do you want to do in uni/tafe/the workforce? It's a nice, optimistic way of looking at things, and I can see why it would make others feel more confident about things, but I personally have never bought into that mantra. Call me a cynic, but when you think about it...

Haha, snaps for Asquith! I have a few mates who go there, not to mention my younger sister. (I live in Mt Colah)

Apparently so is Junior07.

Bussssted.

A few of my friends plan on picking it up. Like I always say, there's no harm in picking up an extension as your 11th/12th/13th unit, since you'll always have the leeway to drop it should you find it too challenging or time-consuming.

Re: Career Choices: What do you want to do in uni/tafe/the workforce? Nothing to do with Medicine/Dentistry, but anyway... I'm conflicted on whether I want to do a combined Media Production/Law degree or just go for Media Production. On one hand, Law interests me and it would be great to have...

Why would you put your HSC as 2007? :confused:
