    Butterworths Q&A - Opinions

    Hi guys, After completing my first year of law with straight Ds (legal method, torts, public law) I'm looking for ways to improve my exam performance, make me more prepared for exams and, hopefully, get a HD here and there. I've seen the Butterworths Question and Answer series around the place...

    Some questions about Sydney College of the Arts

    Did you have a look through the entry requirements on their website? 'A combination of your ATAR and additional selection criteria will be considered for entry to the Bachelor of Visual Arts. You must submit, in addition to your UAC application, a Bachelor of Visual Arts Questionnaire...

    Julia Gillard new Prime Minister

    It's actually a bit sad. Yeah, he's unpopular, but he obviously held his job in high regard and did, in his own way, seek to fulfil the interests of Australians. Julia FTW! Also, really hate people that are all 'I voted for Rudd, not Julia!'. Well sorry, but unless you live in the seat...

    Is it true uni is more relaxing than HSC year?

    Mmm so true. I got an ATAR of 95.85, missed out on law by 1 so I'm just doing Arts (Int. Relations & French) this year and gosh, it is so much less stress. I guess because I'm very interested in the content it doesn't feel like study or anything, whereas at school there was a wide range of...

    Myer group interview

    I worked at Myer from October 08 - Jan this year. I started as an Xmas casual so the process may be a bit different for you (assuming there'd be less applicants) but, the group interview was quite easy. They show you a video about Myer and stuff, then give you a few scenarios to work through...

    The Ship has sailed, my friends!

    I moved up to Brisbane for Uni and know absolutely noone so I feel I'm somewhat in the same boat. Going to OWeek, I expected to instantly make friends and be happy - didn't happen. After a few days I felt really down and worried I'd never meet anyone rah rah rah. The next day I talked to like...

    HECS $500 Discount?

    For my uni, UQ, fees are accesible through the student portal that also allows you to enrol in classes etc. Will be different depending on the uni, check their website or the paperwork that came with your enrolment stuff.

    HECS $500 Discount?

    It's all explained in the HECS-HELp booklet. Basically, if you make a payment over $500 towards your student contribution, multiply that amount by 1.2 and that is how much you are 'actually' paying, since there is a 20% discount - another way to think of it is that the Gov is paying another 20%...

    Nervous about moving!

    I just moved from Canberra to Brisbane for uni and know sooooo many people starting Science and/or Engineering at ANU this year. They're all lovely, you won't have any trouble at all finding people that you connect with in your classes. Civic on Thursday nights is good fun - cheap drinks and...

    Share your 2009 ATAR here

    2009 ACT ATAR: 95.85 My first estimate from school at the start of the year was 86-96, then around 93-94 a few months ago. I'm just really nervous now since the cutoff for my first preference was 95.8 last year. It'd going to be a painful wait!! But generally I'm really happy with my result :)

    Police pursuits and duty of care

    hey there, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction concerning police duty of care during high speed pursuits? Specifically, if the driver of the vehicle being pursued is injured as a result of the pursuit, are the police liable for damages? Thanks!

    Definite integral prob

    Hey, was hoping someoen could explain how to do this. I know it should equal 1 but whenever I solve I always end up with 5/4 or something. (5x(2-x)^3)/8 for the domain [0,2]

    Anyone interested in the UNSW dept. of Aviation??

    Check out flying schools at your local recreational airfield. For Sydney that would be Bankstown. Have a trial flight (usually about $90 or so for 20min or so in the air) and going from that book your first lesson and so on. Depending on how you're finding it, what feedback your instructor is...

    Party Job or Myer Xmas Casual?

    Yeah, I tend to agree. We're not you, we don't know what you're looking for, where you are etc. In terms of positions, you're not going to have any luck getting a Christmas Casual position as Myer/David Jones this close to Christmas; they do their hiring in September/October with their...
