Thoughts on UNSW open day? (1 Viewer)

[Living Moment]

Sorry to say but UNSW Smashed USYD!!!

-The facility were amazing, seats and fold up tables were super combatable appose to wooden planks used as tables and chairs like in UYSD
-The atmosphere was hectic people were actually smiling even though the weather was a bastard, which was even worse if you were a “pretty girl”
-The lectures actually answered your Q. appose to asking you to make an appointment =/ and actually stayed back to answer private Q. unlike USYD
-Library was incredible didn't even have time to see the whole thing

One Disadvantage: You had to spend an extra 20 to 30 min getting to UNSW appose to USYD plus the buses were packed, Overall good day

Oh I agree. Unsw open day>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Usyd's open day

I had a fantastic time, even though I'm not a science/ mathematics person, I became so interested in the engineering/ science projects. It was as if every faculty were so proud of what they have achieved and going to achieve, and decided to give everyone at Open Day a taste of it. And I really liked that sense of optimism. It was very well catered, I was never lost, people were overall friendly, lots of student helpers, etc. I went to the Philosphy talk, and was happy that the professor answered my question I didn't go to any lectures at Usyd... was planning on Design Computing but I already made up my mind about the university. Everyone around me seemed to be having a good time, I was cuing for some blue fairy floss, lovely commerce student had a conversation with me... I was sad to leave, i had a great time.

About travel... it would probably take me around the same time to get to UNSW than it would take to get to Broadway. But I think travel time is eventually something most people would get over.

Omg yes I must agree - wayyyyy better than Usyd. Reasons:
-People were so much nicer and friendlier
-Lots of free stuff
-Seminars were actually informative
-Some seminar rooms were extremely comfortable
-Tours were actually interesting and not entirely about the history or whatever
-Didn't have to wait a long time for a bus
-Majority of events were interesting (I'm not an engineering person but even I was pretty impressed by their displays)

Only bad point was the weather but then again noone can control that right? I should've actually worn jeans or something

I DID! I didn't eat it all though because I was feeling really cold already

I loved the train in the materials engineering, that my definite favourite.

Oh the superconductor train
Its quite relevant to the hsc physics course.

Parvee you didn't meet me under the tree

Kudos to UNSW For a fantastic open day I especially loved the buildings

Absolutely loved the open day. The facilities were amazing and the atmosphere was so chill and happy. I met up with lots of old friends and made some new Overall an exceptional open day, but I can't compare with others since this was the only one I'm going to go to.

I wonder if any of us met each other without even knowing it aha.

I was the person in a white and grey stripe jumper (thin) and black jeans.

I wondered up and down for 1 hour.

Hmm can't seem to recall seeing anyone of that description :S Maybe you saw me? I was the guy with the dark grey jacket that had standing collars, a light grey t-shirt, and blue jeans. By a little past noon, my hair was a mess because of the wind xD.
