is there anyway to get a hold of the '350 page academic study skills guide' if we didn't attend unistep? i didn't realise i'd missed it until just now, and i still want that book.

i know they are going to do the program again when uni starts, also make sure you take a binder folder because it is not really a book, but 350 sheets

so whats the difference between ac prep and the unistep writing named one? huuuh is it one day or two days? and what stuff do they teach - what exactly do we have to write??

 

[Dumdida]

and for ac prep do u have to go to ur own campus? coz i read somewhere that they tell you things about the campus

 

[klh]

you dont have to attend your own campus, but its better since you will know people from your own campus and they show you what the campus is like.
for example, you wen tot another campus, then when uni starts you dont know where things are since you didnt attend you rhome campus.
ofcourse if you go to your course orientation day, then dont worry aobut it. just do wherever it is convenient for you.

edit: if they give an essay do we do it there or do they give it as homework and we hand it on the next day; if there is a next day?
no one answered this one yet thnx hehe

The writing program that I did went over 7 days. So, we had to give it in on the last day. But everyday, we learnt how to further improve the essay. You don't have to hand it in. You actually don't even have to turn up to class. I went two days and then got sick so i couldn't do the rest of the course.

hehe cheers, thats kool, my english was ok i'd be able to handle it but i forgot all those big words i used to use in essays and ive gotten used to writing colloquative again so i think they might tell me to fix that lol but hey this acprep is 2 days ( i chekd the site) so will it be ok if i go only the first day to get that 350page book thing?

 

[Cape]

Yeah, I guess. Its not like your gonna see anyone again

I did that last year. You will be thankful that you got the huge booklet, it has come in great use during first year.

I applied to do AcPrep last year and they sent me a letter back saying I didn't need to do it (I have no idea why!). All I wanted was that book! lol

 

[klh]

ive psoted this already but ill post it again...if you want that book you can get it on webct as a file on your comp.
like is here http://www.uws.edu.au/about/adminorg/academic/ods/lsu/uniprepprograms
and scroll down to the title: Uniprep webct program and follow the procedures.
ofcourse those who want hard copies should go the unistp/acprerp.
